+1 for Viair. We have the somewhat smaller 400P-RV which worked great with our old Greystone which had 80 psi tiires. On the LM, it will still work but the upper pressure inflation is likely to be much slower. The 400P-RV has 150 psi max pressure but the inline gauge only goes to 130 psi.

I have a generator and a Dewalt compressor in our rig, I wanted something 12v and cheap to to do air bags on truck and the 5th airborne king pin bag while on the road without having to start the generator and compressor.
The one JohnD posted (Kobalt) was perfect for what I wanted. Just got back from Lowes with it, Perfect!! Thanks JohnD for the idea.

Kool!

Let us know how you like it!

I plan on picking one up myself today or tomorrow . . .

It is rainy and nasty outside today, so probably won't take my jammies off until tomorrow to go do the stuff I should have done today!

A topic thread about this a few months back mentioned a Kobalt air compressor for $50 (now $40) from Lowe's that many here recommended.

I see that it says it will pump to 120 pounds pressure.... But how long will it take to top off a 110 pound tire on 12 volts? I see you just got one for Christmas (JohnD) but maybe someone else has used it more...

Had one early on in our 5er ownership. Burnt it up topping off a tire after having a bad valve stem. Probably ok for your air bags and water wings.
I now have a 110v pancake ac.

I have one of those. It is good for air bags, floats, soccer balls, etc, but not as good for tires. I tried to fill up one of my sailuns that was low and it took a LONG time. Never actually got it to 110 psi. I ended up getting a small 110v compressor for the tires

I like that it is both 12 v and 120 v. Only need 80# in E tires on my Cougar 303rls so this should be fine. They will be topped off at home prior to a trip and this will only be needed at a campground. Will pick it up tomorrow ~~ $36 with my vet discount at Lowes.

Kinda like the sign I saw on the back of a Jeep.

Zero to 60
Eventually

I had a sign made for the back window of my old Dodge Ram 1500 which said:

"I do understand it's a Jeep thing . . . that's why I bought a Dodge!"
