Post by Richard »

Hello

I have been looking for a compressor to pump up my 4" hose, and was wondering if you guys think this one could do the job:
Compressor
with pressure gauge for pumping tyres, mattresses, toys, etc. 12 V DC. Max pressure 250 PSI/17 bar. Power consumption approx 8 A.
Article number 34-4043
(This one is from Clas Ohlson)

should do the job, but don't expect it to be fast.
we've inflated our hoses with sth like this when we forgot to bring a proper compressor one day:
