Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to set up and connect to a mail air hose connector. Cheaper than tool truck version, just as accurate, and just as durable. Picked up the extended milton chuck for dually wheels and threw on a quick change 1/4 fitting to easily swap back and fort... Read More
Digital tire inflator with hose. Works flawlessly! Has a good rubber cover that protects it from drop damage. Takes a bit of getting used to as the rubber is not that flexible, but it does peel back.
Cons
My exiting milton mechanical inflator and gauge is much more consistent. At 90 psi mine reads 3. That's not very good for a gauge at this price.
Replacing the battery is not at all easy. took tool apart and notice some corrosion on the connector.
The screen times out between tires requiring you to hit on after each tire. Two days later. Be forewarned. No difference. This turkey goes back.
Cons:crapped out the 3rd time i tried to use it, and that was past the return window so now have the expense of shipping it back for warranty repair. Not for pros or daily use in a shop. Almost useless due to terrible battery life.
Two screws need to be removed that you can't see and seem to have been installed with loc-tite or tightened by a gorilla on mine. At least on mine, the fasteners are unrecognizable! There were bits of loose plastic and the terminal spring was floating... Read More
Highlights
Quality
This one is built well, does not leak and so far does the job!
Very good unit, well built and seem pretty tough.
Negatives:this device seems like it was designed 20 or more years ago and not up to date on current things.
Use it almost daily, and wasn't until a week ago that the 2 aaa batteries finally went dead.
Price
Great product for over half the price!
Truly an amazing air digital air chuck for the price!
Save the extra $100 and just get this one.
I shouldn't have bought it and wasted $25.
Shipping
I ordered it yesterday morning about 7am, it was at my house by 8pm.
Competitiveness
A lot cheaper than the snap-on and the mac tools alternatives, and it’s just as good.
The only difference between this and the one of the matco truck is branding and that this one is about $100 less.
I have another brand of tire inflator almost identical to this one that still works, but doesn't grab the valve stem so well.
Same one you'll find on the matco truck just cheaper.

To me accuracy is also repeatability where even if the actual psi is off at least that it stays consistent for all wheels
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
With the various other devices id pump it to 34psi then remeasure same tire right away and its reading 31psi remeasure itll read 32 etc
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Thats the worst thing that can happen because you dont know what next wheel is pumped to
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
With the astro at least if you pumped to 34 itll read 34 on successive attempts to verify

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Or why not just redesign whole thing to just have whole thing be rechargeable from usbc port like its becoming common on devices
