Picked one up from Lidl today, this is the 2nd review with the same fail ...... I'm returning! Appreciate the video

[@Dreadysays]

Crazy that they didn't think this through when designing it. Glad the review helped.

[@Razkharn]

Awesome content, keep it up lad!

[@Dreadysays]

Thanks brother, appreciated.

[@pse2355]

I actually had the exact same problems. At first I thought I was doing something wrong until I found out that the whole construction of the pipe and fittings is completely wrong

[@Dreadysays]

Mad that they got this so wrong isn't it.

[@ulrichbeutenmuller8101]

Thanks man. I thought I was to stupid to get my sup filled using this pump. I observed the pump going bananas at 0,6 psi and I had no clue it would change into second gear later. Also I had the same hose issue. So this pump needs to go back as well.

[@Dreadysays]

Happy to help, not a good pump at all. I'll be reviewing more pumps soon so please subscribe to stay up to date.

[@leighsatchwell8295]

Really useful. Thanks. Not for Me based on this review.

[@Dreadysays]

Thanks, glad it helped. Check out the alternative in the comments, I've also reviewed it.

Just bought a blue fin witch came with a free 12v pump first time i used it last weekend . It was noisy so i inflated the board for about 5 mins then finished off using hand pump . Being in a small car park it was a bit worrying with a few glares ha ha

[@Dreadysays]

Hey Mark, I see you've seen the hiks review, that isn't as loud as the others I've used. This pump was complete junk, I was suprised as the German Mistral gear is usually not too bad.

[@peterzemanovic2038]

Seems like they discontinued this one and now offer a white one under the Crivit brand. They look identical except the hose which they changed to a proper one. The pump itself is actually ok-ish, but the hose was a big problem.

[@Dreadysays]

Interesting, it would make sense as they will have gotten a lot of returns. Thanks for the comment, I may pick one up to review.

[@craigdavies8911]

Bought one today so think I'll be returning it 👍

[@Dreadysays]

I would, for a pump with problems on the 1st go I don't think they will last long either.

[@kitewaldo]

So I got this pump last year already, on first try pump stopped pumping around 10psi and started leaking, then removing hose the prongs snap off from sup adapter. well got new pump on warranty, this year while pumping it did blow its fuse. thinking to superglue that sup adapter to hose so it don't come off!

[@Dreadysays]

They are hopeless, aren't they? I would send it back for a refund and get one of the others ones I've reviewed. The TPS300 is my main go to pump now. Does my isup foil board and wing and about 5 more paddle boards on top without needing a charge.

I got one 2 weeks ago so they're still selling them. Managed to pump my Bluefin tandem up to 11psi before air started to leak out and it went down to 8psi. It then got so hot that the fuse blew. I replaced it as per instructions but when i tried the next time it got to 10psi before the 12v plug started to melt in the socket of my car. These things are a H&S hazard and i've sent photos to Lidl. If they are recalled, you know why.

[@Dreadysays]

Ouch, sorry to hear you had a worse time than I did. They are worse than I thought! I may do a follow up video on them from the comments and feedback I've had. If you have the time and wouldn't mind could you email the photo to [e-mail] please. I'll mention it and yourself in the video of course.

[@specialbearfriend]

@@Dreadysays Done, peace

[@Dreadysays]

Legend, thanks dude. Time to get editing will be a week or two. Email received and just seen it, man these are bad....

[@specialbearfriend]

@@Dreadysays Power move man. I actually feel bad as a windsurfer for over 35yrs, Mistral was one of the original manufacturers and sponsored the great Robby Naish. Sadly now it’s a wack ass rip off company who have bought the rights to use the brand name. Shame.

[@Dreadysays]

Looked on their website today and they are even pushing wing foiling now. I have a full setup (not mistral of course) and still to find good conditions to not have a lesson in futility and self rescue :D

[@scottishgiggirl]

Can you remember what it cost?

[@Dreadysays]

about £30, this is last years video and it's a waste of money, this years model is actually worse than this one. Don't bother with either

[@paulbennie5690]

I had exactly the same issues, and it fused my car fag lighter! Returned for a refund.

[@Dreadysays]

Completly rubbish aren't they. I burnt the fuse out too when I tried it a 2nd time. This was on my campervan with dedicated sockets that were rated higher than a car cig lighter.
