I've seen a commercial for this a few times now and wonder if it's worth it. Should would be easier than using my pancake compressor. https://getbullseyepro.com/

I have an Air Hawk, very similar. It's ok but it's no real air compressor. I use it to keep my riding mower tires inflated. For my vehicles I use this instead. Does my truck tires, no sweat.

I remember seeing ads for the Air Hawk too. I clicked on your link but it states "product not available". The commercial for the Bullseye shows it inflating a car tire very quickly (I assume it's in real time).

I had one like a Bullseye (same shape, different color) for using on the race car at the track. It was a miserable piece of crap.
I bought a DeWalt inflator. It's a bit bigger but still portable, and it's automatic. Set your pressure and walk away. I checked it against my good tire gauge and it is spot on.
My old gun style I couldn't even give away. It went in the garbage.

The Milwaukee one seems to be the most popular one I see at the dragstrip.
I have a Ryobi handheld compressor but it is painfully slow. I keep one of my wife's hair ties on it so I can hold the trigger down and walk off if I need to add more than a few lbs.

Yeah, I bought one solely because I already had all the other DeWalt tools and batteries. I keep it in the truck and find myself using it at least once a week! Well worth the $100 at Lowes!

Should would be easier than using my pancake compressor. https://getbullseyepro.com/ Probably no better, or maybe worse, then the little Inflaters, you'd plug into cig. lighter. You'd wear down that battery to inflate a Flat car/truck tire to any good pressure.

I have had the Milwaukee M12 tire pump for 4 years and really like it, but it has gone up in price from $60 back then, and the 6 amp hour lithium battery for it has gone up from its original $69 price by an even higher percentage.

When the battery eventually dies, where do you get a new battery? Answer is, you don't. It's proprietary, and who knows if this company will be around in a couple of years. Get a Ryobi, Dewalt or Milwaukee, at least you can always buy a new battery and use it on other tools. If you want to go cheaper, get the Ryobi.

The Milwaukee one seems to be the most popular one I see at the dragstrip. As soon as Milwaukee came out with the M18 inflator I bought one as I already had other M18 tools. It works incredibly well, I even convinced work to buy one for our test trips as it can top off our 110 psi truck/trailer tires. Pretty quiet too!

They already have me convinced to go with DeWalt or Milwaukee. Thanks all. I just ordered this one. Cheapest was Amazon $125
