Neat Compact Design. A place for everything and everything in it's place.
I was looking for a new Inflator to replace an old trusted friend that after years of service finally gave out. After hours online researching the new crop, I decided to try the ASI500.The Clean, Compact Styling and Cordless operation caught my eye. Purchased at my local Home Depot , came home charged for four hours as directed went out and gave it a try. I inflated 6 tires anywhere from 3 to 5 psi in each tire. EVERYTHING WORKED FLAWLESSLY ! Unit had plenty of charge remaining. Granted, this was first time use but I am impressed. The onboard air gauge is spot on when checked against my analog dial gauge.The auto shutoff worked perfectly every time.Really a joy to use. I have three vehicles and was looking for something to maintain tire pressures as opposed to inflating tires that are completely deflated. This unit really,for me, fills the bill.
Pros:
What I like best. The Cordless Operation.It is Great! Not having to deal with some kind of cord really makes life alot easier. The on board air pressure gauge being on the money means I don't have to lug my pressure gauge along. Another plus, the auto shut off is also very cool and easy to set psi. on.Also note the on board pressure gauge is digital so you can set virtually any tire pressure for the auto stop.
Cons:
While overall product seems well thought out it could use some sort of cover over intake for High Volume Low Pressure pump. So stuff couldn't get into opening. Likwise, for spot where charger plugs into unit.Also, it would be nice if there were a memory to store tire pressures and a way to turn off the sleep mode that kicks in after two minutes of non use. I know this is to save battery but when it kicks in you then have to turn unit back on and re-enter tire pressure.
