12v tyre inflator

[Tim Cullis]

I had my tools stolen whilst in Morocco, so need to buy everything again!

I was using a Slime 12v inflator which I've found online for £35.

Are there any other options for a small 12v compressor?

There's plenty on Ebay at less than half the price but tend not to be either as small or the same, easily packable, shape as the Slime one but the innards can be removed to make them smaller still.

I made the mistake of buying a £2.99 compressor for a trip to Morocco about 8 yrs ago, I didn't need it which was just as well, I found it didn't work when I got home

Err, isn't this similar to the Nippy Norman one, TYRE INFLATOR ITEM #: TES-STI1 £29 (sorry, not clever enough to do a linky there) which looks to be the right size?

STOP PRESS !
Used by Simon Pavey at the BMW Off Road Skills Centre in Wales.

So it must be the one!

Well found, yes that's the Slime inflator.

Either slightly cheaper or slightly more expensive, depending on postage cost.

Hi Tim,

I got one from Wilkinsons for about £10, nice one that was recommended on here somewhere.

- here you go, got mine a few weeks back and they had both the Ring one and the Airman so I opted for the Airman as it was the one recommended.

I've got two of those way back when they were recommended, one for the bike and one in the car. Used it the car a couple of times from flat and it was very fast. Well done whatton
