Review on Digital Electric Air Pump Compressor Outdoor Recreation and Accessories by Mike Travers

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It works but it's slow.

The pump does what it should. Easy to use. But I have two identical paddle boards and I can easily inflate one faster with a hand pump than this electric pump. I can hand inflate a board in about 5-7 minutes with almost no stops and only short breaks. The electric pump lasted over 10 minutes and I even stopped it about 2-3 psi less than manually. I. You should not run the pump for more than 5 minutes at a time. I've used the pump twice, I hope I haven't caused any permanent damage from running it for a long time. Which I haven't tried, but it might be worth hand inflating the board, maybe up to 8psi. 5-8 psi is about the time when the board takes on its full shape and you start to feel more resistance in the hand pump. Then use an electric pump for the last 5-7 psi as this is usually when pumping by hand becomes more difficult. Otherwise he did what he had to do. The hose connector is ideal for SereneLife rowing boards. But if you're strong enough to pump your board with a hand pump, save some money and ditch the electric pump. Edit: According to the manual, you can run the pump for up to 15 minutes. So in this time you can inflate a board. It's just slower than it can be done by hand.
