Seems to be a solid air compressor and looks badass!

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2020

The media could not be loaded.

Air compressor works pretty well for airing up big mud terrain tires (35" x 12.5" on 17" wheels, that's a lot of volume). Just got it today and tested it out going from 25psi to 65psi in under 10 minutes. It ended up overshooting while I tried to estimate the air pressure based on the accuracy table they provide, and a quick check at 65 psi on the gauge. At 65psi on the compressor gauge it showed 62psi on the portable air pressure gauge so I went to 68psi on the compressor gauge and found the portable tire pressure gauge to be at 68psi, also, at the 10 minute mark. Outside air temperature was about 70 degrees at 1500ft elevation. Expect slower performance at higher elevations due to lower ambient air density/pressure. Will test that later. Approximate temperature of the compressor reached around 180 degrees Fahrenheit, by the time I had a chance to get a picture of it I read about 173 degrees on the side of the compressor. Pretty hot to touch, but not unexpected for an air compressor, especially one inside an ammo can!

The quick disconnect cable works great, no leaks and easy to operate, and the tire valve adapter lock works very well. Never used one with a lever but it seems to work nicely and easily. After 10 minutes of operation 100% duty cycle the battery cables were not getting hot, just barely warm, so they are sized properly.

The kit includes a few various adapters, valve stem removal tool and replacements, tire repair, tire pressure gauges, and all fit within the "ammo can" very well. Inside walls around the compressor are barely warm, and even the top of the housing where the onboard pressure gauge is mounted only reached 116 degrees F.

One last point is that the compressor noise is pretty minimal compared to a lot of air compressors. I uploaded a video which hopefully shows the audio isn't too bad. Remember to turn the unit on before connecting to the tire and be sure to keep the vehicle running while running the compressor.

Also interesting to see that the company is actually in my city. Definitely love the ammo can style and feel! It's just like an ammo can!

Will inflate large tires

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2021

Verified Purchase

I have had many 12 volt tire inflators. This is by far the best. I have inflated large full sized tractor tires. Inflating this large of tire the unit will get warm but so will large commercial compressors. Just give it time to cool. I tried to do the same with the Vivair brand that is so popular. It still works but will blow the 15 amp fuse supplied so had to add a larger fuse to get it to run, not so with the Air Armor M240. I have had the unit a few years now. If you want a reliable air compressor it is worth the money. Sturdy case with room to carry tire repair kit. Extra long hose, great unit.

This tire inflator is awesome! It’s all self contained in the ammo box and very easy to use. The hose is plenty long enough for most vehicles. I love that the gauge is mounted on the compressor instead of the hose, no having to walk back and forth to shut the compressor off to check the air pressure in the tire you’re filling. It’s not the fastest at filling a tire, but it is fast enough. The ammunition can makes it easier to store and transport. Simply awesome.

This is what I have been looking for, I have used it to air tires up and the air bags on my truck. Heavy duty and fits in the tool box and protected in the heavy duty box. Nice to know you have it with you in case of emergencies. The extra items that come with it is a great addition also, Not only does it look great it works great too.

Nice but could be better

Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2020

Verified Purchase

I finally got around to using this compressor today even though I bought it 6 months ago.

As a tire inflator it works great. Today I used it to top off the 20" tires on my Class A Fleetwood Motorhome and everything went off without a hitch. The unit was a bit pricey, but I am expecting it to last a lifetime. And just having done so, I can tell you that it had no trouble at all handling such large tires; treated them like bicycle tires. And I can also tell you that it filled them at a rate of 5lbs per minute. So it took +/- 3 minutes per tire to top them off from 75 to 90 psi.

But I do have one complaint about the unit itself. And that is, do NOT buy this thing because you need a COMPRESSOR. Buy it as a tire inflator ONLY. Today I attempted to use it as an air duster and it failed miserably. It is designed to operate on back pressure ONLY, and NOT with free flowing outgoing air like with a hand duster/sprayer. It will blow air this way, but the stream is very weak and basically unusable. It was clearly designed to work in a sealed loop environment only. Something to keep in mind as you dish out $150.

Air Pressure - Get Some!

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2017

Verified Purchase

I had tried numerous air supply options to air up the large tires on my Ford F-250 truck but most just proved to be too fragile for the job (80 psi necessary for four tires!). So I thought I would take a chance on this monster. Plus, I liked the ammo can packaging. When I received it, I was very pleased. It easily pumps up the tires on my truck without problem. You must attach it to the battery in the truck's engine compartment (you can't use it with the accessory outlet inside your vehicle) and you should keep the engine on your vehicle running while you are pressuring up your tires. If those two requirements are acceptable then consider this device. It is heavy, and it takes up the same space as a .50 caliber ammo can, but that can also holds tire accessories that may just help you keep rolling. This air supply device came nicely packaged too. I am very pleased with the product.

This little compressor works amazingly. I've had it several months and used it many times on the trail. It works just as good as some of my buddies 300 to 500$ onboard air systems. I can inflate my tires just as fast as they can, and it cost me a lot less. I love that it comes in an ammo can which protects it, and fits great between the back see and the tailgate on my CJ7.
