Review on Deltran Hyperion Lift-Assist: 12V Portable Hydraulic Floor Jack with Tire Inflator Air Compressor- 043-1004-HY-WH by Chris Reddick

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Compact and Fast Lifting Tool

This is a great tool for raising or lowering the car quickly and effortlessly. It saves time and reduces exposure to hazardous environments when you need to change a tire, for example. beside the road. The controls are simple and the manual is informative and clearly explains how to operate the tool. The size is small enough to fit in a backpack. The lack of a battery means you can leave it in the car and not worry about heat damage. The jack is sturdy and stable with no sign of weakness. The jack is a little tricky to use given my car's lower ground clearance, but that goes for any jack. At least with this jack I don't have to worry about holding the jack in the right place and lifting it up with the right leverage. It looks like it caused damage or tripped some switches/fuses. The tire pump runs properly, but lets LOTS of air through when screwing the valve in/out. A quick release valve is not included, so all you have to do is screw it in quickly, or you might over-inflate it, and then use the built-in gauge release button to adjust it again. which can lead to hyperinflation. Under-inflation is a much greater safety hazard, but over-inflation can lead to increased wear and an uncomfortable ride. The tire pump also doesn't have an automatic stop, so you just have to stop it manually at the target pressure in psi. In general, this is a very convenient tool for the car.
