| I take it the cigerette lighter type compressors would be not much use, say if one drops psi from 23 ish on road to whatever, 16 ish for off road and then wants to pump them up (think sahara) for trip home on road? Recommendations for tyre compressors then please, faster inflation the better i think? Footpum not favoured due to work involved!lol | |

| 12v tyre pumps normally can go upto 40psi easily on a bog standerd one, however, u only get what you pay for at the end of the day..if abdul on the corner sold one for 3 quid i dont think it could blow your nose let alone a tyre, i can get good ens at trade price from maccess in taffs well for about 15 - 20 quid... | |

| It is possible to convert Air-Con compressors to do this - been told that they work quite well. | |
