Review on 🔌 Electric Air Pump with Gauge for Tires, Bikes, Cars, and Air Mattresses - 12V by Josh Schaefer

I bought this pump to keep in my car for emergencies and because it got some good reviews (not to mention the best price). However, I was disappointed with the device because the wires that power the pump overheated in less than a minute every time I tried to use the pump. I had a car (a '97 Nissan King Cab XE pickup) that ran as the manual said and the fuse didn't blow, but if I hadn't stopped the pump the wires would have melted. I was expecting the pump itself to get hot, but that was the real problem. I tried it twice, letting the pump cool down for 45 minutes in between just to make sure I didn't do anything wrong. The pump itself looks pretty heavy and the hard case is good, but the power cords need to be thicker or it wouldn't be a problem. Because of this problem I had to send the pump back. As some other reviewers of this and other similar pumps have had no luck with it, getting a "good" device may be a random situation. .Never leave this pump (or similar) unattended, even for a short time.
