Handy and durable, but…
By H.W.N.
This is one tough compressor. I have owned various types, styles, and brands of mini compressors all around the years, and this one has lasted the longest (Currenly 4+ years). I am rather hard on this equipment, so 4 years is over the top excellency for me. The longetivity of the battery (or lack of) is the ONLY reason this did not get 5 stars.
The good…
1. Very durable, having dropped mine assorted times on hard concrete with no failures afterward.
2. Charges fast in the car.
3. Can run on car battery.
4. Never slows down, even after running for 50 plus minutes straight in 110 degree Texas heat. Not a hint of smoke or foul smell mutual with other mini compressors.
The bad…
1. You WILL have to replace the battery within a year. It’s 6 screws, and the headlight bezel unthreads, then the 12 volt battery has slip-on terminal connections. A local battery store (Batteries-Plus) has the replacement. They will even do the substitute work for you for free.
2. Charges slow in the house (110v) takes 12-15 hours for a full charge.
3. Back door is a bit flimsy. I don’t commend storing anything priceless in it.
One note from Batteries-Plus; Charge this with the light facing up. The battery is sealed, but the battery is designed to be charged with the terminals facing up. If not charging, it may be stored in any configuration. The owner’s manual will not state any of this.

Holding up so far
By Othay
I purchased this for my brother-in-law for Christmas. We autocross race and just employed it recently. We air up our tires from normal pressure to when it comes to 38psi. It aired up his tires, my tires, and another car’s tires – all on one charge. It still had a little life in it but you could tell the battery was getting low at the end of the day. After reading the reviews I also suggested to him to charge it standing with the light pointing up. The gauge also seems to be the right way accurate.
