Ryobi RPI18-0 High Pressure Compressor Battery 18V 11 Bar 160 PSI Body Only

I purchased this unit as a replacement for an earlier Ryobi inflator, the pistol-grip type, which I wrecked by ignoring the advice about “duty cycle” – five minutes of rest after five minutes of use. The reason for this caution is that the thing becomes hot, and my old one got so hot in pumping up eight car tires that something inside broke and started rattling. I mention this because this product also has that same duty cycle (top of page 4 in the manual), and this time I’m paying attention.Anyway, is this a good tire pump? Indeed it is, for three reasons: First, it’s much faster than my old one; they aren’t kidding about “high-pressure.” Second, it’s convenient to have the option of auto-stopping when a pressure target is reached. And third – and this was a pleasant surprise – they have somehow gotten around the problem, common with electric tire pumps, of the gauge reading high when the pump is operating, then settling back two or three psi when the pump stops; that is, you’d have to “over-pump” your target, then stop and see what pressure was actually achieved. But this pump is different – it reads the same when pumping as when it’s off. That makes the auto-stop feature work very well.Is it accurate? After inflating the tires on my trusty old Honda Fit, I compared this product's readings to those of my snobbish Longacre Racing tire gauge, and they agreed well.If you’re interested in this product, it’s likely you’re already in the Ryobi One+ system, but if this is your first such product, you’ll need a battery. That’s where the money goes, you’ll find. Yet I recommend sticking with Ryobi-branded batteries, despite the oceans of cheaper knock-offs out there. How powerful does the battery need to be? Well, when I first tried out this pump, the battery I happened to lay my hands on was a big 6Ah unit, which is obviously overkill for this purpose (unless you’re pumping up a fleet of trucks). Still, after inflating four tires, the battery was down one blinking light when placed back on the charger. If I needed a battery just for this guy, I’d probably go with 3Ah or above.

This is by far the best air pump!! I’m a huge ryobi guy and use this pump waaayyy too much, as in I’m looking for things to use it on! Super easy plug and go.* I accidentally forgot I had it plugged into my tire and drug it for a few yards… barely a scrap on it and still works as if I just unboxed it. It IS durable!It is a little loud but it’s not as loud as a 3lbs compressor building air. I keep it stored in my truck under my backseat which makes it perfect sized to be used whenever or wherever I am!

This is a very nice little air compressor. I just throw it in the glove box and take it to sporting events to air up basketballs, soccer balls, footballs (sorry Tom Brady). Easily fills my bicycle tires to 50 PSI. I even use this little monster to air up my tires after a day of offroading. It measures about 1 PSI light for car tires so I have to adjust a little, but no worries.

This bad boy has been a game changer. I would typically have to fill up at gas stations but as you know they can fill up your tire with a bunch of water. This little guy works efficiently, no moisture, and doesn't drain the battery much. Used it on my bike and on my cars with no issues. Totally recommend getting this one

First and foremost, I am a very satisfied Ryobi customer. When the need arises, I usually go to Ryobi first either Amazon or Home Depot. As noted by other reviewers this pump is way faster and more PSI than the previous hand held ( pistol grip ) version. I own and use both regular. When reading the functionality of this one, I was eager to use based on the digital read-out, auto shut off, more PSI output, etc. All good.Albeit the one I have is off by at least 2-3 lbs. I know as I've double checked it with two high quality tire pressure gauges ( 1 digital, 1 analog ) that I've used consistently. Whether it just my one pump or not, I would recommend double checking when you first use. Over inflation can be as bad as under inflation.

Does what its supposed. Super easy to use and seems accurate. Like the fact you can set the PSI and it inflates to the correct pressure.

Small, pumps tires fairly fast. Battery life is good 😊

I have a lot of ryobi tools, this one works great just like the others. Small and easy to store in my vehicle.
