12Vdc tyre compressor

[amanmazleigh]

Does anyone know where I can get 12V tyre compressors? Able to pump up to at least 100 psi. As cheap as possible!

Whats your budget?

I know of a place selling one @ $30~40.

Try autobaks. Or the DYI shops, forget the name (one in harborfront) but I bought mine for less than $40. They are very compact, but doubt if they go up to 100psi (thats road bicycle pressure). Thats pretty serious air pressure.

If you intend to connect it to a motorbike, you have to be really careful. These compressors draws alot of power, it may blow your fuse if you are tapping power from the system. You can overcome that by tapping power direct from battery but make sure the engine is still running, and don't overload the battery otherwise it may not have enough juice to start your bike later.

 

personally I would recommend a foot pump. it's not dependent on the bike electrical, and good exercise for the leg.

its not for bikes actually. its for my project which requires dc pumps.

Autobacs have another type slightly bigger in size for about $16 plus.

Yup, the one @ Harbour Front, 3rd floor selling DIY hardware store. Small & compact.

It has a fuse in the adapters, & instructions says nt to start bike while in use. So far so good for me, no weak batt after use & it does inflates my rear @ 290psi.

 

However, there's still the ever trusty manual foot pump.
