Properly inflated tires are essential for the safety and performance of your vehicle, including optimum fuel economy. Though air pumps are typically available at gas stations for a fee, a compact portable air compressor gives you the power to inflate your tires anytime, anywhere. Most use 12-volt power from the car’s power port, but some utilize a rechargeable battery, not unlike a cordless drill. Randomly referred to as air compressors, tire inflators, and air pumps, the units reviewed here are all the portable variety, not to be confused with the larger, heavy-duty compressors found in garages and professional repair shops. But what they lack in size they make up for in convenience, easily stowing away in the trunk or cargo area of even compact cars.
We evaluate all portable tire inflators based on these weighted metrics:
- Price (25%)
- Manufacturer Reputation (25%)
- Included accessories for inflating sporting good, pool equipment etc. (15%)
- Includes storage case or bag (10%)
