Sears 19.2 volt Inflator

My neighbor needed to get his pontoon out for repairs and borrowed another neighbor's trailer. I got his pontoon on the trailer and when he pulled up, I noticed that the four trailer tires were pretty much flat.

The week before, I made a Sears run to cash-in my reward points and a number of gift cards before all expired. The inflator looks like a drill, sounds like hell, but it got the tires up to pressure in about a half hour. It has a nifty auto cut off setting and portable since it uses the standard 19.2 volt batteries.

It comes with a number of attachments for fenders, balls, rafts, floats, etc.

I can't speak for longevity as yet, but so far so good.

I have one of the 12V-battery varieties of this. The battery now needs to be replaced and I'm having difficulty finding that model, they're all some other voltage or electrode configuration. When the battery's fully charged it runs as expected but within about two minutes it's not enough to turn the motor. Given the nature of these things when you need it, you really NEED it to work. Hopefully you'll have better luck than I've had with mine.

If you take it to a a battery store (Batteries Plus, Battery Source, etc) they can most likely rebuild it for ~$50-60 dollars. It takes about 15 minutes for them to open it up put in new batteries. Just as an FYI.

I picked up one of these and it does real well
www.slime.com/shop/heavy-duty-tire-inflator-comp-06/

For it's size the output is better than any portable I have used. Take about a minute to top off a tire or 2 to 3 minutes to totally inflate one. Gave about 35 bucks online somewhere.
