Harbor Freight 12Volt 150PSI High Volume Air Compressor Pump Review (Not the 100PSI model)

Harbor Freight 12Volt 150PSI High Volume Portable Air Compressor Pump Review (Not the 100PSI model).
Note: It may seem obvious, but in the manual it states to keep the engine running while using the pump. This would maintain a higher voltage, fill the tire faster and keep the pump cool.

It tells you right in the instruction manual to turn the engine on. Low voltage will cause the pump motor to run hot.

I almost bought an expensive brand, thank God for this one. It works great, and the main body is exposed, so you can wrap a towel around it and cool off with a bottle of water.

I use mine for off road and it's great. Use it probably 15 times a year to fill 33 inch swampers and it's held up for 3 years now. Fast too for a 12v pump. Good volume. Have also used on 80 psi E rated tires on my dually. Just need careful she gets hot! Would recommend cooling it off after 5 minutes of use

Wow, I would have never thought to look at Harbor Freight for a tire inflator, looks pretty dam good! I think they could actually be a contender with this one. :o

I’ve honestly found it the other way around, myself.

I just mounted a compressor pump off a belt drive compressor under my hood and customized an existing pull your to drive it. I run 3 to 6 roofing guns off my van and it keeps up nicely and an idling van is a lot quieter than my 4 stroke gas wheelbarrow compressor that 12 volt thing in the video sure builds pressure slow but I'm used to my 14.5 scfm setup

Good video review. Thanks.

[@OutdoorMemories]

Thanks for the video!

I have this same one. Love it. Never had a problem with it.

[@moisesbeltran2612]

i've had one for years, it works well, the only issue i've had is after a while the thermal switch inside will blow and it will no longer run, easy fix, bypass the switch and it is good to go.

Just bought one of theses. Figured what do I have to lose, this one will be my fourth one in the Last 5 Years. Just burnt up the last one and it was a craftsman. The one before that was from home depot, before that, wallmart. I tore every one of them down to find out why. They all have a plactic piston or a thick plastic disk with a check valve on top of the cylinder. The problem was alway inside the housing were the electrical connection was made. They all melted. Then I found a very little known fact that is not advertised, all 12 volt air compressors are 20% duty cycle. Which means to top off a tire is one thing but to fully inflate a tire you shouldn't run it more then a few minutes then let it cool and then repeat. Dont remember reading this in any manual must have been teeny tiny fine print.

I couldn’t even pump up two 35” tires from 15-60 psi before it blowing the hose up. Harbor freight gave me my money back. 👍 waiting on a Sherpa big air.

Thanks for video uploader.

[@justinmaxwell1608]

FYI that's basically the same compressor that is used for airbags on my impala

[@johnringoo756]

Does it have automatic shutoff?..I got a slime inflator and very happy with it

[@mrs.rodgersneighborhood9358]

Can you use a dually air chuck to this for hard to reach dually valves?

[@scrapper13215]

Costco and Home Depot also sell one like this that plug into the 12 volt accessorie plug.
