Review on ๐Ÿš€ BTP Mano Advanced Two-Stage Electric Turbo Pump: Ideal for Inflatable Kayaks, SUPS, and Boats - Unlock Maximum Performance! by Kevin Woods

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Inflates SUP well but requires troubleshooting and MacGyvering.

I really want to love this pump, but it has some design issues that make it quite awkward to use. Good things first. I bought a pump to inflate two SUPs and once I figured out what kind of kinks I could figure out it inflated one of my SUPs (404) up to 14psi very quickly with no issues. Now for the bad, the SUP inflator adapter didn't initially work with my 404 or my Lakeshore SUP. After some troubleshooting I was able to figure out that the gasket on the pump SUP adapter was installed upside down. After I reversed the gasket, the adapter fitted my 404 perfectly. But it still didn't fit my Lakeshore SUP. I haven't found a solution for this yet and I still have to manually inflate this SUP. The second issue is that the SUP adapter for the pump only connects to the hose via a pressure fitting, which tends to fall apart once you get close to the SUP PSI. So you have to sit there and hold the pieces together until the SUP reaches pressure. I would glue everything together but then I lose the ability to inflate everything else with the pump. There is also no instruction manual.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • little stuff
