Review on 🏍️ Xiaomi Motorcycle Detection Portable Compressor by Mark Caperton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits Schrader but not Presta

I have three air pumps in constant use: a portable air compressor that runs from the cigarette lighter; high quality Blackburn hand bike pump; and this battery powered air compressor from Xiaomi. Xiaomi is loud and slow, but has a built-in pressure gauge that automatically shuts off the pump when the target air pressure is reached. It's also very convenient to use considering how long it takes me to attach or remove it from the hoop. Because of these two key features, I use it more than any other air pump when inflating car tires or bicycle tires with a Schrader valve. I just attach it to the hoop, start pumping it up and come back in 5-10 minutes to take it off. Xiaomi includes a Presta valve adapter. However, this adapter cannot reliably open the Presta valve and therefore cannot inflate the tire. So bottom line, this device is very useful for Schrader valved tires, but useless for Presta valved tires.

Pros
  • Highly rated by testers for support and durability
Cons
  • little things
