 Well-thought out little product January 25, 2008
After reading reviews of several compressors, I bought this one hoping it would work quickly without overheating. I can say that it does both very well. It is light weight and well-conceived, with a handle to carry, and a compartment in the back that holds the power cord and the hose. There is an on-off switch on the front and as you can see, and a pressure gauge so you don't have to unscrew the hose to check pressure. I don't know what the fuss is regarding the screw-on hose...I just overfilled a lb. or 2 and had no trouble at all. I also bought a 12' extension cord so I could reach other vehicles and trailers.
The only recommendation I would make is that the manuf. should have a sticker on the back with the instruction sheet so you have it at all times. (oh yes, and lose the clam-shell packaging!!)
I give it one thumb up! (I lost the other one opening the package!)

This unit is well designed, easy to use. I like this unit's screw-on fitting better than the clamp-on type that most pumps come with. You lose a tiny bit of air - less than 1 psi - while screwing it on or off. But it stays on more securely than the clamp-on kind. The guage is great - even though it reads all the way up to 250 psi, it has an expanded scale down around 30 psi where car tires like to be, so you can tell the difference between 29 and 30.

The TyphoonMax has all the features you need for fast easy tire inflation. Anteater chuck head (heavy brass with rubber grip) easily reaches deep into any hubcap/wheel configuration. This screw on chuck head connector is superior to the quick connect design (which loosen with time thus allowing for leakage during inflation). Note: snub nose connectors such as at the gas station do not conjoin tightly to many modern wheel angles. Features include easy to read pressure gauge, durable housing, and long lighter adaptor cord. But most importantly it gets the job done quickly (16 inch tire; 25 to 40 in 3 minutes). No more driving to the gas station in the rain/snow to find their compressor is "temporarily" out of order. No more guessing when you have reached the specified pressure. Note: overinflate tire by 2 pps to compensate for loss during chuck head unsrewing. Inflate tires in the comfort of you garage (keep that door open pal) or in an emergency on the side of the road.
 I can't purchase this without more information. November 20, 2007

After reading various reviews in an attempt to find out what 12 Volt tire compressors were out there, I came to the conclusion that there's some misinformation and intentionally omitted information on the web. *Maximum PSI should not be a primary decision factor in most consumers' choices.* Most healthy, adult males can exert 160 PSI with just their own lungs! My tires only need around 35 PSI. What I think we're really concerned about is *flow rate* - how fast can a volume of air be pumped in my tire? After that, I think my next concerns are the durability, power consumption and length of cord. Just be leery of a higher numbered `PSI' in the advertising of compressors. Unless I'm looking to fill heavy-duty air tanks (most 11 gallon consumer models are rated around 150 PSI), PSI shouldn't factor in my decision. Look for SCFM or LPM as a guide in sizing up flow rates in different models. If I don't see that information, I'm definitely not purchasing it.
I love it. Best tire inflator I have ever had. August 1, 2007

It's fast. It's easy to use. It's reasonably quiet. It seems to be made very well. The brass, quick-connect chuck screws on quickly and easily. I didn't lose much air connecting the chuck. Perhaps I didn't lose air because I don't try to push the chuck onto the stem?? I just place it on and the screw it in. As the chuck screws into the stem, you can hear some air coming out, but if you have the slightest of nimble fingers, it doesn't take long, at all, until the air stops getting released from the tire. I'd give it five stars, but, only a magician can get the hose and power line back into the small compartment at the back. The package says "Amazing Inflation Speed!". Believe it!
