  • Screw-on brass chuck that won’t pop off the valve
  • Comes with a carry bag and stores its inflation tips on the body
Cons
  • No auto shutoff: you watch the dial and switch it off yourself
  • Draws up to 15 A, more than some cars’ accessory sockets allow
  • Short 3 ft air hose, so you move the unit around the car
