    EPAuto 12V DC Portable Air Compressor Pump, Digital Tire Inflator by 100 PSI

    • After only 2 months, the piece will no longer thread onto the tire stem at all, rendering the pump useless despite all other parts of the pump working fine
    • Only fault is that the air chuck became loose and threaded quickly.
    • The thread is kind of hard to twist on/off.
    • OTHERS HERE have commented on how easily you can ruin the threads on the air pump valve.
    • After a year of use to maintaine a tire that has a slow leak, the threads on the chuck (where the hose on the pump connects to the valve on the tire) have degraded to the point that I cannot connect the pump to anything
    • The Main problem is the thread inside of hose went bad on both of those
    • I love the thread on inflator hose that stays firmly attached the stem valve without you pressing your cold numb fingers down on it the whole time
    • A design suggestion would be to change to a Rapid-T Valve (like found on good bike floor pump) to clip on rather than screw on to attach to the tire
    • works as it should.
    • The product works as it says
    • I suggest reading directions on box as well as on the user guide.
    • In fact the pump showed my bicycle tire at 67psi at the end of the pump, after I removed the nozzle as fast as I could the pressure was below 50.The fact that it died so quickly and others have commented on that as well, says they need to QC the product.
    • I purchased this compressor for my recumbent trike tires, as well as for my car
