Best Gadget Ever!
I purchased this little compressor last November, 2022.It has been such a handy device to own. My husband has an automotive compressor but it can be a little overkill to setup and use which is the reason I wanted something that I can easily keep in the house, car, garage, etc. and use right away when needed.My first use was to fill up my car’s tires. I have an older vehicle that shows an idiot light when “any” tire is low so you don’t know which tire needs air. I got out my trusty Fanttik compressor and checked and filled 4 tires (all ended up being a little low). Filling the tires used up 3 out of the 4 bars of battery power. Not sure how much that equates to but at least some power was left. 2 of my tires needed 4-6 pounds of air and the other 2 needed just 1-2 pounds.I also compared the pressure read out with my digital tire gauge and the Fantik readings were an exact match with the gauge (I’ve compared my old gauge with various gas station air fill stations too and it has been accurate).Here’s another use that I thought of...I was looking for alternatives to cans of compressed air ( since they get expensive and the can is just another waste product for landfill) so I screwed on the Ball Needle Tip on and used the Fanttik as a fine point of compressed air to blowout my computer keyboard. Worked great!Press and hold for a second or two on the Center Power button to turn on.Each setting allows for a minimum and a maximum PSI (pounds per square inch) setting:Motorcycle - 26psi - 43psiCar - 26psi - 50psiBicycles - 30psi - 145psiBall - 4psi - 16psiYou choose the PSI range that you need (push on the little “circular icon on the round pad on the device to cycle through the choices, each setting has a little icon representing that choice) then hit the Plus (+) or Minus (-) to increase or decrease the maximum PSI for whatever you are filling up with air.I needed to fill a Lawn Tractor tire to 14psi so I had to use the “Ball” setting.After selecting the “Ball" option (choosing the PSI “range” that I needed) you then can set a maximum psi amount and the Fanttik will automatically turn off when it reaches your desired pressure. I lowered the max range limit to 14psi and the device stopped pushing air into my tractor tire at 14psi.Easy peasy!One additional excellent feature is that it has a flashlight (turn on by pressing the “sun-like” icon on the power pad). By pressing the sun icon you’ll get a Solid light, press again and get a fast pulsing light, press again and get a slower pulsing light, press one more time to shot off the light.If you forget to shut off after use, it will power down on its own to save the battery.I bought a second Fanttik to give as a Birthday present for a relative.Is is NOT a Power Bank to recharge your Cell Phone, GPS, etc. You “can" attach to a cell phone or a power bank but they will “Re-Charge” your Fanttik Inflator by Using your cell's/power bank's battery. It took 6% of my cell phones battery (Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4) to recharge One Bar on the Fanttik. I’m guessing that you would only do this in an emergency to maybe try and get one or two bars. Even then, it would be a better idea to just keep the Fanttik charged up and ready to go. If kept in your car, bring a cord and use your car USB (or some adapter) to re-charge the inflator on-the-go.Since this Fanttik is so portable and versatile with the rechargeable battery, IMHO it is far superior to those corded emergency mini compressors of old that use a cigarette lighter port to run. They probably have new USB compatible versions but still not a portable and convenient as a Fanttik Inflator.My final thought is that I’m hoping it lasts for years. At this point in time it will be a waiting game to find out. If something does happen sooner than later, I will contact Fanttik and update my review. I have No Cons to report at this point in time.Obviously, I really love this inflator. No, Fanttik Did Not pay me or send me this device for free (now wouldn’t that be nice). I bought it when it was on sale for US $47.57. As of writing my review (Mar. 29, 2023) there is a $30.00 Off Coupon that you can apply. Now’s the time to order!I’m going to look into Fanttik’s other products. Might find some more useful devices.I really am just finding it so useful and convenient which makes me recommend it to everyone.

Great air inflator and portable
Must have to easily inflate tires without needing to find a place with air nor pay for air. Good car kit.

Highly recommended
Excellent for pumping up my fat tire ebike. Only reason for the 4⭐rating is the thread on for the valve stem. I ordered a clip on to replace it.

My review
The product worked well did exactly as it said, although the battery life doesn’t last as long as I would hope. It works extremely well for my razor, but for my Duramax, I might be able to get one or two tires topped off correctly before the battery runs out.

Compact and easy
The media could not be loaded. Fills up fast. Loud. Did 4 tires from 37psi to 42 in about 10 minutes including changeovers. Consumed 50% of the battery.Does the job with a slick design and easy operation.Wish battery life is better.
