Tire Inflator Portable Air Compressor, Air Pump for Inflatables, 3 Modes: Electric Outlet, 12V Car Adapter and Cordless 20V MAX, Battery Sold Separately (BDINF20C)

Was time to buy new inflator and so glad stumbled onto this one! First stumbled onto the DeWalt one which I like and already have bunch of their tools/batts. But theirs is almost twice as much ($110) with no battery and from what I read also doesn't include the A/C plug which costs another $30-40! This B&D doesn't come with battery either but has everything else and since I also have B&D tools/batts figured give it a go. First I love having 3 power sources, esp the batt as that makes it portable, was so convenient to move from tire to tire. I did 4 tires on 3 cars in no time and didn't even use up a batt. Second I love having the auto-shutoff. My prior unit was basic and had gauge with needle that bounced all over the place! Constantly had to remove nozzle, test with separate gauge, then repeat. This digital display is easy to read and accurate. It stopped when supposed to and when checked with my separate gauge each time was dead on! Price-wise was more than initially wanted to spend but think it's worth it for that alone tho will probably also find the portability and large volume nozzle handy for things like inflating/deflating rafts. But note I already had the batteries to use, if you don't that changes the equation some. (not to be a B&D pitchman but their batts aren't that much or you could even get a basic drill with batt & charger for like $50) My only real complaint I guess is the cord retainer for the 12V cable which is on the bottom. It's rather tedious and not exactly intuitive to wrap the cord up in it and mine came out of the box with the cord simply bundled with a twisty-tie. That makes me suspicious to whether I got a used/refurb unit. But otherwise looks and works fine and prob won't use the 12V cord anyway as the battery is more convenient.

Uses same batteries as my other 6 black and decker tools - perfect addition - love the auto shutoff and the pump pressure accuracy is dead on - great for pressuring up my stable of bikes 😉

I bought the BLACK+DECKER 20V inflator to have something I can keep in the garage for easy access when the car tires need to be topped off at home. I chose this inflator primarily because I already have several B+D 20V tools and more 20V Max batteries than I know what to do with. I also read a number of reviews and product comparisons for multiple alternative products. Here is how I would rate the features that are most important to me: 5 STARS for size and portability - For me this inflator is staying in the garage, but it's also small enough to tuck in the car (though I never will). 4 STARS for inflation speed - It's not the fastest inflator I've used, but for the size/price range/noise level, it is good. For me I would not pay more for a faster inflator. 4.5 STARS for power options - It's nice to have multiple options for powering the device, even if I only ever want to use a battery. I just have to dock half a star because the 12v cord isn't wound up in the box. That's just an annoyance since I never intend to use the 12v option. 2 STARS for Auto shut-off - I love this feature! I just wish the product designers had put a little thought into it. Every time I unplug the battery, I have to reset the desired PSI! I use 42 psi for my car, which means I have to push the (+) button over 40 times every time I use this inflator. It also over-inflates to get to the desired shut-off point. When set to 42, it consistently inflates to 43.5 psi before it shuts off. (This happens because reading the psi while it's running is not accurate, but it's a bit too much compensation.) Overall this is a great inflator for home use, especially if you already have Black+Decker 20V batteries. (PROTIP: Don't buy a battery separately! You can usually find a tool that comes with a battery and charger cheaper than you can buy a battery alone.)

I did quite a bit of research before making this purchase. Since I already owned a battery operated Hedge Trimmer from B&D this was one I was considering among others. Based on other reviews, I decided to purchase this one because it can work from the B&D 20vdc battery pack I already owned, 12vdc lighter or 120 VAC. This gave me a lot of options to use this at home as well as on the road. This is a "no frills" inflator. No led light, no USB charging for phones, etc. It does however outshine others I had considered because it can also quickly inflate air mattresses or other inflatable items with the high volume setting and hose. Others have commented on its complicated nature. I read the directions once and was done. Worked perfect on all three power sources. I have tested it a few times to inflate some tires and an air mattress and it did a great job. The pressure gauge is accurate and it does as others have said, inflates to a little higher than the set pressure, but then settles down to the stated pressure or within 1/2 lb. Overall I am very happy with its operation. If I hadn't already owned the battery pack and charger, I probably would have gone with something else. I had considered the VIAIR 88P, a few models of AstroAI as well as GSPSCN and the EPAuto 12V DC Portable Air Compressor. Some things to consider as you shop around: Some compressors have a high amp draws and require a direct battery connection, (not very flexible for home use). Others have a cigarette lighter plug, but you still need to have the engine running. Some have their amp draw pushing the limits of many car cig plugs at 150-180 watts / @ 12.5 -15 amps. B&D does not publish the 12vdc amp draw, but I may test mine under load at 30psi and see where it comes in and publish it later.

Awesome. Yes, it's slow. LOOK AT IT! SMALL! RUNS ON A BATTERY! Nice tool to have, and to carry on a road trip. Possibly good for rv use. Initial run aired up, all one after another... 4 - 275/55 R20's from 34psi to 38psi, and then 4- 245/75R16's from 32psi to 36psi. 2 to 3 minutes a tire, all 8 tires filled to 1.5 pounds over set, showed .5 pound over after shutting off. Unit was just a little warm to the touch after all 8 tires were done, not hot, no smell. Didn't find it to be "heavy" as some reviews mentioned, using the b&d 20v/4ah battery. Nice compact unit, a good buy for the multi car family that takes care of and maintains their own vehicle. Now I can quit dragging out that Harbor Freight air compressor! Another thing to mention... on the manufacturer label... it draws 8 amps... So the Black n Decker 4a/hr battery fully charged is only good for 30 minutes of run time, theoretically...

This thing has been awesome! We have some other tools by this brand and came across this little guy. It has been fantastic as we have camped and been at the lake with extended family. Everyone has borrowed it and it has been up to the jobs of floaties, inflatable paddle boards (adapters purchased separately) and a boating tube! Same charged battery for all jobs! In compressor mode it sounds louder like an air compressor, but gets the job done. The engineer did a great job designing the storage wraps and compartments for cords (got our houses admiration of design) and maintaining functionality!

I needed a good tire inflator after owning several old junk brand ones that kicked the bucket within a year, and since I recently purchased the 20V Max series lithium ion battery system, choosing this Black + Decker Multi-Purpose Inflator was a no-brainer. It has 3 modes of power: DC 20V Max Lithium Ion battery (not included), 12V “car cigarette-lighter” port, and of course AC cord plug. The cords are rather short, so using the battery would be the preferred power source, but at least they are there in event where you don’t have a charged battery available (or if you are stranded with a flat tire/ flat spare). Then there is that fact that an extension cord would do the trick. These cords are both not removable, in fact you coil them up neatly into the provided organized place. But the battery is obviously the best to use with this model anyway. You need to push the battery in place firmly to use (as seen in my video). There are 2 switches and 3 buttons on the main unit that are either self-explanatory or self-intuitive. I found after turning the motors on that they are relatively quiet compared to my previous inflators, and the unit does not seem to get as hot either. It might be because of the very efficient side and bottom vents, or maybe just the thick ABS plastic shell, but I filled all 4 tires on my 2012 Toyota Prius just now in one go with my the 20V Lithium Ion battery (like literally just now) and it is only warm to the touch. The “I” on the switch (as opposed to “0” or “II”) is for the tire pressure inflator. The auto-off setting is set to go a couple of PSI above the limiter in order to get a more accurate pressure I guess. When the motor turns off, it reads on (or close to) the targeted pressurization. The high volume output function, known as “II” on the switch, blows air through the tube elbow on the right. The accordion tube arm can be pulled off and haphazardly friction-fit back into place like a vacuum cleaner hose when not in use. Also like a vacuum cleaner, there is a neat little inflator tip attachment organizer compartment for the inflator needle valve, brass coupler adapter, and tapered nozzle in the back. I probably won’t even use these, to be honest, since there is the main universal valve adaptor attached to the high pressure hose to fill tires with. I am not exactly a fan, however, of the plastic lever on the back of said universal valve adaptor because I have had those snap off in due time on my aforementioned other brand’s old inflators before. Nevertheless, I am hoping it lasts the test of time. This model looks tougher and has a 2 year limited warranty and 30 day money back guarantee to back it up. Actually, I have a good feeling about this one, so for the moment I can say that I am happy with my purchase.

This unit will inflate just about anything to a maximum pressure of 160 PSI. For me, this unit is mainly for tire maintenance. I've had several cheaper inflators over the years and this is by far the best one. While the speed at which it inflates a tire is about average; it's convenience is what makes it shine. Features The inflator comes with several attachments to inflate rafts, air mattresses, basketballs, and of course car tires. The connector for tires is a lock-on/clip-on chuck, which I prefer over the screw-on chuck. There's a built-in pressure gauge that shows its measurements on the small but bright LCD display. The unit can be powered in 3 ways: 120volt wall plug; cigarette lighter plug; or by using a 20 volt lithium ion battery (sold seperately). Operation Using the inflator is not quite intuitive at first, but simple enough once you understand it. The idea is to select the power source; then activate the digital display to set your desired PSI; and then you switch the unit on and it inflates the tire to your desired settings. What I really like is that once the chuck is connected to my tires, the current PSI will be displayed. There's no need to fiddle with a seperate tire guage to check the PSI. Also, the unit will automatically stop at a slightly higher PSI than what is set - so that when you disconnect the chuck, it will have compensated for the small loss of air. Battery Operation I prefer battery operation whenever I use this unit. The main reason is the convenience - there's no troublesome power chord to deal with. Also, I don't like to use the cigarette lighter plug because devices would sometimes burn-out a fuse in my car - which is never good. The Black and Decker 20v lithium battery (LBXR20) and its associated 2 amp charger (BDCAC202B) are sold seperately - and would be a little over $30 each. I think the price is well worth it though. I can fill all my tires with about 3-5psi in about 10 minutes. What's more, the battery will have plenty of charge left over. And when the battery needs charging, it only takes about 30-45 mintues to fully charge. A few minor negative issues There are a few things about this inflator that could use improvement. First and foremost is the battery connection. When I first connected the battery to my unit, there was a click sound and it seemed that the battery was fully connected. But I was dismayed when the unit didn't turn on. At first I thought I had a defective unit. But I reconnected the battery with some firm pressure and it worked. (You'll know that the battery is connected only when there is absolutely NO SLACK or movement between the battery and the rest of the unit. And in order to do this, you really have to FIRMLY insert the battery with a bit of force.) Another issue is that the storage area for the cigarette lighter plug is too small. Since this is located underneath the unit, more often than not the chord will stick out slightly from the bottom and cause the unit to rest at an angle. I was originally interested in the Dewalt DCC020IB Inflator, which is very similar to this unit. However, I prefer the Black and Decker's clip-on/lock-on chuck vs the screw-on that the Dewalt has. In any case, this Black and Decker checks all the boxes for me - it's easy to use, can run on battery power, and well-built. The few gripes I have with it are minor at best, and I am really happy I found this at an affordable price.

Me ha gustado bastante si hay q comprar la batería y cargador si quieres una experiencia sin cables , se conecta bien al cargador del carro y a la luz infla de maravilla y lo mejor se detiene al alcanzar la presión deseada

This is my second one. First one lasted over ten yrs.

Estuve muy indeciso de si invertir en una bomba que pudiera inflar colchones inflables o una para automóvil y en un fin de semana que fui de camping me lleve mi colchón y se me ponchó mi llanta. Esta bomba me salvó de quedar varado en la sierra y poder llegar a un taller y pude disfrutar mi fin de semana con mi colchón inflable. Además cuando viene gente a dormir en mi casa les pongo el colchón inflable en menos de 3 minutos cuando antes me tardaba más de 15 inflándolo con la bomba manual. Excelente producto.

This is an awesome little compressor. I wouldn’t say it works any better than most 12v compact compressors, but the fact that you can use 110-120v ac or 12v or 20v battery makes it awesome. Have a high pressure hose and a high volume hose makes this the most versatile little compressor. No more blowing up rafts at the car and carrying it to the beach. Just go right to the beach and blow your stuff up. Small and compact, looks like a little radio. Auto shut off for high pressure works great. It is not quit but is quieter most small compressors. Already love this little thing.

Cumple totalmente con su función. Sin embargo, siempre varía con la presión, por lo que no es tan práctica al usarla para inflar llantas de algún automóvil.
