One of these.

(Shamelessly jacked photo)
Had an issue with my RV and a low tire a ways back. I managed with one of those 12 volt cigarette lighter air pumps jacked redneckedly into a Milwaukee M18 battery. Looked really stupid but it worked. So now I'll be taking M12 batteries with me too. Already have those.
It takes the best part of a regular battery to bring a pickup truck tire back up from about all the way flat but mostly what I need is just to top a tire off. Way too many vehicles and it's always one of them. This thing beats the heck out of messing with air tanks, for sure. Attach the hose, see what pressure is in there, push buttons to the amount I want in there and let it rip. A bit slow maybe but I can walk off and do something else. It will add a few psi in pretty short order though. Thing actually fits a need around here. I LIKE it.

Mine was the best $500 bucks ever spent

Loved having her as a daily beater I didn't have to worry about

Unfortunately, she got T-boned by a taxi that ran a red light

I bought gas to refill the tank on my Lifan KPR 200 before going home just like I do every day during riding weather. I love retirement!

A used ebike for 90 dollars, needs a new rear hub wheel. For 300 i should have it going again.

New back flow preventer for my sprinkler system. I am so tired of plumbing problems, and this is going to be a pain.

Bikenut · 06-13-2023, 07:43 PM

My ex said plumbing problems always made her wet but I find electrical problems are just.... shocking.

I'm here all week folks!
