Best Electric air pump

An electric air pump is a compact device that is powered by electricity – either by a rechargeable battery or by a power cord. It has a valve connection that can be used to connect it to a variety of devices, such as a pneumatic mattress, air bed, inflatable boat, football, bicycle tyres or balloons. Air is pumped into the respective object at the push of a button. Especially when inflating inflatable boats and air beds, which have to be filled with a lot of air, an electric air pump saves you a lot of time and energy. Electric air pumps, which can also pump the air out again, are particularly practical. For example, air mattresses can be very quickly and completely cleared of air when camping, so that they can then be stowed in the backpack to save as much space as possible.

When purchasing an electric air pump, you should pay particular attention to the area of application specified by the manufacturer on the product packaging. Not every model is also suitable for inflating large inflatable boats or air beds. Battery-powered devices in particular are usually too weak for objects with very large volumes, so it is better to use an air pump with mains cable in this case. Basically, the electric air pump should be as small and handy as possible so that it fits easily into the trunk or travel bag. In addition, it should have a stable housing, because it is exposed to considerable stress every day when camping or camping. Last but not least, the device should be easy to handle, such as the ASI500 electric air pump from Black + Decker, which scored highly in product tests due to its high degree of user-friendliness.

If you want to use your electric air pump when camping, a 12-volt unit is particularly recommended as it can be easily connected to the cigarette lighter. Alternatively, you can use a car adapter that is compatible with almost all electric air pumps. For some devices, such as the electric air pump Intex Quick Fill, the car adapter is even part of the scope of delivery. In addition, you should check exactly which valve connections are supplied by the manufacturer at the time of purchase, as you will need a special valve for almost every item. However, you can usually also buy suitable valves from the manufacturer. Also make sure that the electric air pump is supplied with other practical accessories. Only a few electric air pumps are equipped with an integrated pressure gauge, with the help of which you can check the air pressure. Especially if you want to fill car tires, the purchase of a manometer can be worthwhile. An extension hose is also very practical, so that you can easily reach valves that are difficult to access. The electric air pump from infactory even comes with the hose.
