Oh ok. My bad. I still find it expensive though.

I just checked the Tropicool website and these are what I found,

TROPIcool 3 in 1 Air Compressor New 210907 | Tropicool

TROPIcool 3 in 1 Air Compressor | Tropicool

TROPIcool Tyre Inflator Model LINK | Tropicool

The Carplus store has the last one which is the digital one for around Rs. 3200/-. However, I feel the top two ones are more powerful and look more sturdy. Anybody knows how good this company and its products are?

I found it is working fine and gives accurate reading:

Attachment 315876

Attachment 315877

I see this in ebay for 700 bucks.
Is it really good?
Will you recommend it?

Thanks.

VIAIR Corporation - 85P Part No. 00085Works out of 12V socket, good for 31" tyres.

Could you kindly enlighten me about the performance of this VIAIR portable compressor? I am also toying with the idea of buying it from amazon.

I have been using it for quite some time and it is 100% effective. I use it for my 31" Gypsy tyres & also for my palio tyres and it does the job brilliantly.

No, I don't think this one is available here. I imported it from US.

You can get similar quality pumps for bit/much less cost here in Bangalore itself now. It costed me ~5K.

I think for 2.5 - 3.5K you can get similar quality pumps in Bangalore.

Thanks for prompt response. Just a few minutes back, I placed my order with amazon. My credit card has been charged for Rs 4589.11 by amazon.

Have got myself one of those single barrel foot pumps few days back from ebay. Had difficulty in filling my daughters' cycle tire. Need to check with the Alto's tire.

And as for using either one for filling a larger vehicles tire, think again.

What is a single barrel vs a double barrel foot pump? I thought this only applied to Guns.

here are some pictures for easy explanation.

single barrel

double barrel

Recently, I bought VIAIR 85P portable compressor and solar-powered digital tyre pressure gauge. I am fully satisfied with both of them.

Bought a Coido 2153 yesterday for Rs.1050/-. Had a completely flat tyre in my Swift - 3 minutes and it was filled to 33 psi.

+ves: decent build quality; long wires; works well; compact

-ves: noisy; would've liked a digital PSI indicator
