Hi Cam, Thanks for review. I did a review last week on valve core removing deflator type. One of my followers recommended the itech deflator so it was good to see your review Cheers Out There Touring

[@slowboat6021]

thanks for the honest review Cam. we had the valve core removal gauges, 2 off wify did one one side i did the other, worked good. now we use the indeflate. fast and easy, never had an issue with the chucks.

I hear you Bro. I bought the Campboss and after too many failures (and buyers regret), hesitantly bought the iCheck ones for the same reason, I loved their TPMS so thought I would give them a go. Couldn't be happier. Great review and can concur with everything you said about these devices. Was curious about the other types of devices so happy to hear your thoughts on these. Cheers👍👍

[@greghammond7956]

Great review Cam. I’ve got the Staun deflators set at 25 psi, was going to get a second set so I could have them at 16 psi just for the convenience, I’ll be buying the Icheck now after watching this 👍

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Greg, hope you're as happy with them as I am! My second set is ordered and on the way too!

[@crowco2977]

Mate lots of informative content. I couldn't disagree with you more about the indeflate though. I've found it amazing. I've tried the other styles and the indeflate has consistently been quicker, easier and more accurate. I guess I've been lucky and not experienced your difficulties clipping the chucks on.

[@louiskudlak2241]

Totally buddy, I’ve got an indeflate, lov it, no more bending down, safe 4wdriving

[@gazza750]

AGREE 100% Indeflate is so easy and accurate which for me a a disabled person make it a no brainer that indeflate is easiest to use.

[@WildTouring]

Yeah fair enough, glad to hear its working well for you! You're not alone, theres lots of people that love them!

[@Adventures_With_The_Missus]

Used similar, stuck with the Indeflate 4 line setup. Never had any issus with keeping them tidy, but I put easy velcro style wrapovers on each section, was using reusable zip ties but lost a couple, been mint ever since. After going to a 4x4 truck now, I've gone to the Tyre spider, running an Endless air setup in the truck and the ability to set pressures and be able to switch off lines to the front and continue to inflate the rear, makes it a great setup for what I need. I mean at the end of the day, everybody has a different requirement, for me those two options were great with a bad back, super easy to use, hell, back in the day, a stick was good enough with a gauge to check lol

[@WildTouring]

Sounds like a good setup, and you’re not wrong- everyone has different needs and expectations!

Hey buddy, wasn’t gunna watch this video initially, have seen plenty about deflators but glad I did, very informative, great product i reckon, I’ve got the indeflate, lov it, stand around and do other things while deflating, no more bending down, not as quick as other products but no bending, not cheap yes but worth it for healthy knees , thanks for sharing brother

[@WildTouring]

Cheers mate! 👍🏼

[@Ranger670]

Oh no! I've just bought another brand (Staun 4 pack) on special at the big snake camping store for about the same price you quoted. I graduated from a Kings Kwicky, one at a time deflator. The Stauns don't have the pressure settings on them. Straun says they're factory set to 18psi which is my go-to pressure for most sand work. I'll see how they go next time I get onto the beach. I may have to "re-gift" the Staun set.

[@WildTouring]

See how you go with them. Like I said the stauns are a really good product too! If you’re not planning to adjust to different pressures on the go, just dial them in at home on the driveway and leave them set forever!

[@krismezza]

Cheers Cam, just ordered a set using your code 👍 I've got a set of Stauns & the Indeflate, and love both. I hate using the indeflate to air down though, as you said, it is bulky, but is easier than the EZ Deflator on the knees. Inflating though, I love it. Love my Stauns, but did wish I could adjust. I wasn't sold on Campboss. Could be a personal thing with disliking A4A, and the price of those being so much more than the Stauns - and now these. I'll have one set to the beach, and one set to gravel & corrugations when I head up DHI & Quobba.

[@jag131990]

Highly recommend the mean mother set, work a treat

[@Pongmaster2000]

[@4bnewb969]

Hi Cam I noted when you we’re screwing on the valve, there was some sort of sleeve that seemed to protect the valve stem ? Nb great review by the way Cheers

[@WildTouring]

Cheers mate, yeah thats a dust seal that comes with the iCheck TPMS.

[@personlikeu]

Cheers Cam, great review, think I will get myself a set.

[@SUPERTRUCKER166]

So with the indeflate you can swap out the valve on the bottom with a 1/4 bsp nitto fitting which eliminates that problem with the tyre chuck. Where an indeflate or any tyre spider (which they are easy to make yourself for about half the price of the maxtrax unit) is if your running a big compressor you eliminate the schrader valve restriction. But nothing beats an engine driven or PTO compressor and CTI, flick a switch and adjust pressures on the fly.

[@WildTouring]

Yeah I’ve seen people replace the tyre valve on the bottom of the indeflate with nitto fittings. Work better for inflation, but I guess you’d need an inline ball valve to control deflation- or it would just dump all your air out. Surprised maxtrax dont sell them like that in the first place.

[@SUPERTRUCKER166]

@@WildTouring yeah I just put a ball valve then a male nitto, makes it faster to deflate as well vs using the sliding collar. Funnily enough kings make one now which had a nitto fitting and inline ball valve. 60 bucks as well, great value

[@bjp107]

Hey mate - good vid. I just got an Indeflate and from having had a basic manual system before I love it. Yes bully but very accurate and flexible ie can use for pumping SUP’s bikes etc and yes slower inflation but doing 2 at once so same net time. Good comparison.

[@krump743]

Do u have the screw on valve at the end of ur compressor like whats found on a kings compressor or the clip on tyre chuck like cam used in his clip. (The silver arb chuck).

@@petervince1742 awesome to hear mate!!!

[@clinty51]

I like this review Cam, I have the Staun's and I also have two sets, painstakingly set to two pressures that I still check with a gauge post deflation due to OCD. The Campboss set you had looked to be set above 20psi which might reflect your 23 psi reading, but as 1 failed to achieve target pressure the net result is less than favorable. I was about to mentally disagree with you about buying two sets of the iCheck until you mentioned towing and then it made complete sense. The price is similar as Staun's but the laser etching accuracy of the iChecks, seems to put them a level above

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Clint, I just need gear that is reliable. I'm really happy with the iCheck deflators, and my second set is on their way!

[@ChristianJamesK]

got a set of the iCheck for Xmas, definately easier than the valve extractors. Great hearing your review. Hope you caught some fish.

[@whiskeytown3777]

Good video, I got the campboss. First time I used them they let down to 16 when I had approx 18 set. So now I always set them about 20-22 and do the last few PSI via the dial gauge I use to check pressures Not overly impressed with them, but they are handy. I might check out these iCheck ones (at a cheaper price too)

[@WildTouring]

Cheers mate, I wouldn't have been too worried if they were only a couple of PSI off. But mine always randomly stop well short of set pressures! Havn't had any dramas like that with the iCheck, and yeah like you said, a better price point too!

[@TyFenwick]

I found the camp boss ones to be on point with 37’s. I rate them 👍🏼

[@WildTouring]

Yeah fair enough! When i posted a video on them last year, roughly half the comments were from people happy with them, and half had similar issues to me. So there's definitely sets that are more accurate.

[@christurner68]

The chinese campboss are nearly twice the price👍

[@markpalmer5787]

Cheers Cam great review. I have the ARB valve remove deflator, very accurate. But just recently I have had a bit of trouble getting the valve to grip onto the stem. Now whether it's getting old (I've had it ten yrs plus) or the valves need replacing I'm not sure. But after watching your review, I think I'll have to seriously consider investing in a set of the i check deflators. Great review... Cheers Mark...

[@WildTouring]

Cheers Mark, ten years is a pretty good run, got to be happy with that! My cheapy one is probably not far off that either actually now that I think about it. You can't knock them, they are fast and they work well! But the iCheck deflators are just easier.

[@pantoqwerty]

I bought the indeflate. Used it once and it never sealed properly around the valves. Never used again. I like the ARB deflator but there’s always. The issue in sand (or bulldust) of introducing debris into the valve. I’ll be checking out these ones for sure. Can just leave them in the glove box.

[@WildTouring]

Sounds like the same issue I was having with my indeflate. The iCheck is a really good option!

[@donfinch862]

I felt a bit deflated after watching this, so I HAD to grab another beer. I'm using some cheapo ebay jobs, have one lot set at 25 and the other to 15. No etchings so set 'em up on a preset tyre and locked them in. They do the job for us. We mainly use the 25's for the corrugated gravel roads. Good review Cam. Cheers mate edit, just saw your short teasing Pete, haha

[@benmartin339]

Haha 😂 pun intended I hope 😂

[@WildTouring]

Haha cheers Don 😂 Thats what I'll probably be doing, one set at 16psi for the beach, and the others to 25psi for gravel. Haha yeah Petes a good sport!!! 😂😂

[@mattbehan218]

Hey Cam great video as always. Interestingly, I’ve only had great experiences with the Campboss deflators. Out of the packet 3 were bang on and 1 needed a slight adjustment to match the others. I’ve not had the stopping short issue you’ve experienced either. Matt

Great review. Do you happen to know if the almost identical OverSand deflators sold in the States are made by the same manufacturer?

[@dylanevans6063]

Hi Cam, Your TPMS is obviously the type that is inside your tire rather than the little screw on ones on the valve. How do you find them with connection and roughly how much did the tire shop sting you to put them in? Cheers mate

[@WildTouring]

Nah it’s external, they’re the black iCheck sensors you can see me screwing on between tests. No dramas with connection on car or van- but I am using the range extender.

[@robertgriffiths3710]

Cheers for the review, has helped me with my final decision for tyre deflating. I’m still torn between the Oircom or Icheck TPMS, having issues finding a comparison video.

[@WildTouring]

I've had both, and both are really good units, you can't go wrong with either. (My discount code 'wild', actually works for Oricom.com.au too) My 2 cents; Both can no do 10 tyres off the one unit, are wireless (solar powered), easy to use and reliable. I like the screen on the Oricom - background is black so there's no reflection in full sun. But I run the iCheck because the offroad mode is really useful for me (you can preset the low pressure alarm to a lower value in the offroad mode so that the unit doesn't think you have a flat tyre are beep at you when you've deflated your tyres for unsealed tracks).

[@robertgriffiths3710]

@@WildTouring Thankyou for your reply. You have cleared up what I was having trouble finding details on (the Offroad part), I could see ICheck had the function but couldn’t see if Oricom had the same. I agree the Oricom screen does seem to look crisper. With the extra function now confirmed as only being in the ICheck, ICheck it will be. I did like that Oricom came in a 6 pack which meant I have all tyres inclsuing 2 spares covered but will go the ICheck 5 and buy an extra one Many thanks

[@brettleonard8602]

Valve core removal it is then, 1 tyre at a time yet way faster same accuracy and overtime that spring will weaken or jam with dirt and become inaccurate. Just my 2 cents

[@RGVJ21]

Tyre valves are designed to be installed once or few times not 50+ so its only a matter of time before one strips the thread or the seal let's go. Just my thinking.

[@WildTouring]

Yeah that’s a fair point. Also more likely to get dirt and contaminants in there where it seals.

Hi Cam, Great review and I hope your having a good time at the beach. I bought the iCheck deflators also but have not used them yet. I got them about a week ago. I do have a question for you. I see how to set the psi by matching the markings but since they are in increments of 5 psi how do you set them up if you want to say 12 psi or 28 psi?

[@WildTouring]

G'day Harry, thanks mate! Hope you're as happy with the iCheck deflators as I am. If I wanted 12psi, I'd set them roughly halfway between 10 - 15PSI. If you are OCD like me, then you can make minor adjustments to them from there to dial them in perfectly!

[@LookMotorsports]

I like your videos and teating products etc. Not saying they are inaccurate..but you didnt show setting the icheck delfators. So unsure if they where actually all set to 16 or various to make them look better.. again you didnt shoa setting all the campboss ones. To be fair i have a few different tyre deflators and my camp boss ones are within 3psi of the setting and pretty.good considering. I have the staun og ones, kickass ones and another generic set.I agree the manual vavle remover style are pretty spot on I havent tried the icheck. But will grab a set and have a look

The maxtrax indeflate sucks. Using a clip on air chuck like what you put on ur tyres, in my experience with it doesnt seat at all like u also stated in ur video. Ive found u have to stand there and push and hold it on the valve just to get a seal. Its garbage. With those icheck deflators, i guess is an extra minute over the traditional deflator worth 70 bucks. Id also imagine driving in the bush, then hitting the beach, the icheck novelty would wear off if u have to re adjust all 4 for different terrains in one 4wding session. Looks like a decent product, but i think the traditional deflator is still the best option and has multiple "uses" on different terrains. I think the important thing here is that the indeflate by maxtrax is absolute garbage.

[@holgermuller2987]

Yep, that was another good review. Screw on tire deflators. I check tire deflator nice product acceptable price. That the China men product is not accurate No wonder, cost here a few dollars, in OZ an arm and a leg. Do your math… maximum margin. One question do they have 2 different color in one set, to distinguish when setted for front and rear different pressure settings. Thanks and cheers

[@stephengoldie5291]

I don’t think the iCheck products are made in Australia. It’s an Australian company but I think they source their products from overseas (I could be wrong). The only deflators I am sure are made in Australia are the DFL8 which are made in Perth. I bought a set of DFL8 and they work really well but are much more expensive

[@WildTouring]

Yeah as Stephen said, it’s an Australian company, but an imported product. Only come in red at the moment, as far as I’m aware anyway! But even when the locking nut is tightened at your desired setting, you can still see what pressure they’re set to.
