Those inflators aren’t half bad. I have one that I use in my 4Runner. We aired down to 18 psi (stock tires) for Imogene pass and that inflator brought everything back to 35 in less than 15 minutes.

It’s not the fastest but it’s handy for road trips or adjusting pressures in the driveway without pulling out the hose of the shop air or getting the hose out for the ARB dual in the Jeep.

It’s nice to set a pressure and walk away until you hear it stop inflating.

A locknflate makes it even better.

Just watched a bunch of YouTube reviews, seems a no brainer to switch over to this versus my 15 year old Viair 400P. My 400P requires a bunch of hose, connecting to my battery, gets stupid hot and I have to monitor it as I creep up to the desired pressure. The M18 should make airing up far less of PIA. Ordered!

You'll like it. It does get warm after airing up my 35's...and it will shoot some condensation, but overall for the size and convenience, its a really nice unit.

I really like my Viair 400P. I air up from 7.5psi to 24psi in exactly 2min30sec. I’m sure the Milwaukee pump is great, but I don’t have room for it and I don’t have any Milwaukee tools. My son doesn’t have any for his electrician work either, and one reason is because they tend to have legs. That is a really good deal though, especially with those batteries.

I will take warm over hot enough to burn me, which has happened a few times over the years with my 400P. It is so hot after use that I can't pack it away for some time, which is also a pain with a packed rig.

That’s so strange. Mine does not get that hot. I pack it away immediately and have never noticed extreme heat. Maybe I need to deliberately touch it!

Maybe mine is crap, it has fallen down off the bumper a few times!

I haven't noticed my 400P being too hot to bag. I rarely use it because it's a pain to get everything out and hooked up.

My Milwaukee won't replace my onboard air but I may keep it in my truck to use with my ARB Dual when airing the jeep tires up.

The Milwaukee Is great for quick tire adjustments and such, quicker to access than my shop compressor for use in the driveway.

These also made my Milwaukee more convenient

As you probably know, truck tool brands like Snap-On, MAC, etc., don't always make their tools. Many are just rebranded.

Truck Tool Rebrands is dedicated to tracking down the actual manufacturer and posting links. I am sure, like many companies, those manufacturers may produce varying lines of quality. However, I have found everything I have purchased through the site owners Amazon affiliate links to be precisely the same tool as the tool truck version

Awesome site.

Also if anyone doesn’t have one of these, grab one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002C5ONG8?tag=wranglerorg-20
I have a Snap On ($30 from pawn shop), maybe my favorite tool.
