Which Portable Tire Pump is Best? Let's find out!

[@ProjectFarm]

Thank you all for requesting this one. I plan to give away all the tire pumps to random people I meet when I'm out and about buying stuff to test. Also, sorry it's taken me so long but finally have some new merch: teespring.com/stores/project-farm Products Tested In This Video (in no particular order): Tire Slime: amzn.to/2YpoY10 Harbor Freight Pittsburgh: bit.ly/3hlCzOe Audew: amzn.to/3j7jm3o Goodyear: No longer available CZK-3650: amzn.to/3lavBhp Husky 120V volt: amzn.to/3hkPMqh Campbell Hausfeld: amzn.to/2Yp6pda

Hey I've got an idea. Set up an amazon affiliate account. This allows you share a amazon link to product. When user clicks on your link AND buys the item, e.g. pump, you make a small commission. Most people watch your stuff and then go buy the winner or 2nd best 3rd best etc. It's not sponsorship. Its just putting a link in description and saving your supporters time!

[@itsm3th3b33]

Would be more helpful if you could rank the pumps. Assign a grade to each of the attributes you tested (temp, power, noise level, etc) and come up with a single score. We'd like to easily tell which pump to buy.

Great video, definitely gave me a better understanding of what to look for in a portable pump. I've heard from a lot of different people that portable tire pumps are unreliable and fail in short order. This video perfectly demonstrates why. If you put max 10 minutes on the packaging and the pump can't survive running for atleast 15 people are going to break it. Especially if it cannot reach the pressure specified after 10 minutes and there is no thermal shutoff (eventhough it's written on the package).

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks! Thanks for sharing.

[@yambo59]

yeah most people never read the instructions and dont realize the reason theres a warning included that says to turn on the pump before hooking up the hose, if theres enough back pressure from the tire it will stall the pump motor and blow the fuse - and there you could be on the side of the road with a blown fuse and no air. Some also dont get that these are oil-free short time use pumps (10 min) and think they can treat them like home compressors--lol

[@mfree80286]

Everyone: If you get or have one of these things or any high amperage 12v device, spend the extra 5 bucks on a 12v socket with alligator clips and hook'em directly to the battery when using. Your car's electrical system will thank you (and continue functioning). Most of these seem to keep under a 10A draw *but* I'm sure the cheap ones don't have a soft start and a brushed motor like those are going to have a seemingly insane startup draw, AND the cheapest ones probably aren't fitted with anything to prevent EM spikes or noise.

[@dalanoyo]

I've pulled 300W from the 12v socket in my truck with an inverter with no problem. That's the highest I usually see inverters before they go to alligator clip. But it was a pretty continuous load so idk

[@johnd4348]

good advice.

[@alfredmorency8296]

@Michael Free Even if your electrical system can handle it a socket and alligator clips could be used as an extension cord and to hookup to jump packs etc. I have one of the Pittsburgh pumps(the longest reach in this test) and it barely makes it to my spare, so it seems to me some extra length would be helpful in many cases.

The Husky and the Pittsburgh are in a class of their own here, thanks to their beefier, more efficient dual ball bearing motors, sturdy cast aluminum pistons with integrated hard rubber seals, and steel cylinder sleeves. I've got the Husky, and internally it is constructed similarly to the Pittsburgh. Externally, the Husky has one notable design advantage over the Pittsburgh, in that its aluminum cylinder head is exposed to atmosphere on top with several short cooling fins, allowing for superior heat rejection, which explains why it bested all of the competition on the 20 minute tank fill torture test by such a large margin.

DURABILITY ISSUE FOUND with the Harbor Freight Pittsburgh pump. The material that they used for the yellow coil hose degrades. I took the pump out to use it and the yellow coil hose had already cracked where it was sitting stowed INSIDE the car in an interior storage space. I checked the spring action of the coil section that was still intact and it cracked into several pieces. Seeing if a donor hose can be attached as the pump itself is still good. ***ALSO avoid air pumps that have to be threaded onto the valve stem. Get one with a chuck that clips-on and does not require the valve stem to have good threads. If the threads on your valve stem are bad then your screw-on chuck will never attach properly.

Harbor freight has really stepped up their game in the last 5 years. You can go cheap for a simple bug out tool kit to keep in your trunk. You can get their industrial line and get really good service out of them. I personally use a 1000 watt inverter and one of the little hot dog 1 gallon tank from harbor freight. As long as I let my truck run while the inverter is hooked up it works great. I carry my inverter plus a harbor freight tire plug kit and my little hotdog compressor everywhere I go. I’ve used this system for probably 10 years now. Only issue I’ve ever had was the very first time I used it I didn’t leave my truck running and it ran my battery down to a point where I had to use my jump pack to start it. Live and learn. I now have my 1000 watt inverter hooked up to a fairly large deep cycle battery. I ran a modified 16 foot 8 guage jumper cable from my main battery to my deep cycle battery which is all neatly arranged in a ventilated section of my truck bed tool box. When I say modified jumper cables. I bought the 8 guage 16 foot jumper cables from harbor freight. They were on dale for 12 dollars and I used a 20 percent off coupon. I cut the clamps off and put battery terminal ends on the wire. Then I ran them under my cab to my deep cycle battery. I also use a shut off switch terminal on my positive wire on my deep cycle battery end. I only turn it on for like one trip to work, which is about 40 minutes away for me. That way I don’t strain my alternator that much. I will say that when I use my inverter I open the lid though. Even though I wired up a plug in on the outside of my tool box. It gets pretty toasty in there. I don’t want to run the risk of my inverter burning out. My trucks alternator is rated at 145 amps. If it ever goes out I am going to install a 235 amp alternator on it off of a f350. Then I will leave both batteries on full time. One other thing. It makes a great back up for my normal car battery. Three weeks ago my 7 year old battery finally died. I went back to get my little lithium ion jump starter and I thought. I wonder what would happen if I just turned on my deep cycle battery instead. Truck fired right up. So now I’ve got 8 amps of inverter juice for about 45 minutes on a full load plus a built in jump starter back up. Let’s just say I really like my system. It cost me around 300 dollars to build the whole thing. However it has paid for itself in usefulness 1000 times. Especially if I’m working out in the field. I also have a 6000 watt generator bolted to the bed of my truck. I find myself useing my inverter a lot more than my generator though.

When I looked at the specs for the top pumps recommended for RVs or heavy duty use/trucks, it was clear that the reviewers didn't even bother to read the specs, much less do any testing!

[@kgm2182]

@@volvo09 With a clip-on connector, not the threaded connector. That has to do with ensuring that you will always be able to connect the pump to your tire. If the threads on your valve stem are beat up(it happens) you're not going to attach any threaded air pump connector to them. I had a perfectly good pump once and no way to connect it to a roughed up valve stem. The clip/clamp type connector doesn't need threads and always connects. The only thing better than Viair is Milwaukee's new 18V air pump. The difference is inflation in seconds vs minutes. I can top up all 4 tires in the garage in the time it takes to get a 12V pump plugged in and setup to reach one tire and inflate it.

Agreed on Viair. I have an 88P that fills tires fast. Sure you have to open the hood and connect to the battery but with 16ft of air hose I've never even unrolled the 10ft of power cord. 1.5cfm and 25 minutes rated runtime. Cheap? no. Small? sorta. THE pump I rely on on and off road? definitely.

@@mrfezzywig that would be an underinflated tire at (likely) highway speeds. If you take it relatively slow it's perfectly fine to drive for a couple miles to get to a gas station. While tire fires can certainly happen from an underinflated tire your main risk is either a bent rim from a pothole or your tire just tearing itself apart from a weakened side-wall which can do alot of damage to the tire itself obviously plus the rim and your vehicles bodywork as well as anyone unfortunate enough to be around you... plus you'll have worse handling capability and fuel milage. But combine weight, low tire pressure, a hot day, highway speeds, and heavy braking with certain tire compounds they can certainly light up but it's not really the main risk

My experience is this- I have gone through a lot of the simple plug-in 12VDC compressors. The best yet I still use, a Campbell Hausfeld I got back in the early 90's (I think) for about $20 from Checker Auto (before O'Reilley's bought them out). In fact I used it earlier to pump up my truck's flat tire. I didn't time how long it ran, but I think we're talking about 20 minutes. But...if you want the best toy for the best price, get a good reliable compressor AND a 3 gallon air tank. The compressor is great for low pressure needs, and the tank can hold 120 PSI easy. In fact I got my spare air tank out of the netherlands of my truck's camper and it still has 110 PSI in it, and the last time I filled it was Jan. 2019. Taking car of your ties yourself is ideal as yesterday morning when I got a flat I was miles from town and roadside assistance could help, but it took them 3 to 3-1/2 hours to get back to me. In that time frame I could have walked to town, and I am physically disabled. That last part really bites me. What I'd like to see is a comparison of tire plugs. I have used the rubber strip plugs for nearly forever, and rarely had a problem. I can think of only twice. But some people get really weird about it saying the tire plugs kill people. Go figure.

Actually a very good video. Very informative. I have bought and tossed a lot of these that were junk.

One of the best comparison videos I've seen. Detailed, quick, and thorough. Helped me decide easily. I'm going to try the Harbor freight pump.Thanks.
