I got my winter set up put on about a week ago.
Yesterday driving home from work my low tire pressure warning came on.
26psi in left rear. 39 in all the others.
I figured there was a slow leak/seal problem so I called the tire place and they were pretty busy with people trying to get new tires for the storm we got this morning (7 inches of snow at my house), so I said I'd be in sometime next week to check it out.
Woke up this morning to 5psi while shoveling.....
Pulled out the compressor out of the trunk and went to work.
The connector for the stem screws onto the stem and seals nicely in place! No more wondering how much air is escaping when you flip down the plastic locking mechanism.
The tire inflated to 40psi in about 2.5-3 minutes (I also had car running when plugged in, as over the years I've noticed this works better than when not running)
Unscrewing the hose resulted in having 35psi on the dash indicator, so a few psi loss while unscrewing.
Both the hose and cord/plug wound up nicely for replacement into the holder in the trunk. No loose wires flowing all over the place.
There was also a few adapters on the pump for other applications if you needed them for other tasks.
This is definitely the best portable compressor I've ever used.
Drove down to Town Fair Tire and they took it right in.
They found a nail and plugged it up for me. No charge!
When my wife got her edge this fall the also picked up a nail a few weeks into ownership.... Oh well.
