    Says it fills tires. So fill a tire with pressure readout.

    I could see it used for bicycle tires, maybe topping off a couple psi in car tires. Anything substantial, I could see it getting cooked.
    But hey, it's your $75. Let us know how it turns out.

    For 60 bucks would you just jump up to a real air compressor?

    What's that old saying? Buy once, cry once.
    I just can't see a handheld compressor working well for more than filling soccer balls. As for air for on the road/trail tire inflation, I don't have experience with more than having an air bomb.
    But if you want to try, it's your $.

    I'd trust it to fill a beach ball. But I wouldn't trust it to fill fifty beach balls. Or a single truck tire.
