Hi all,
I'm looking for some recommendations on a tire pump that I can carry under the seat of my scooter.Something that I can count on when I really need it.I just returned this one because it would not stay connected to the valve stem
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L3 ... UTF8&psc=1
I would consider a 12 volt compressor if its small and could be powered by the power outlet and would not blow the fuse.
I can read the reviews on Amazon all night but I would prefer the opinions of someone who has actually used one on a scooter like mine. Thanks

The fuse is 5A rated and some portable tyre inflators suggest they take more - 6A+. The fuse may last for the short time it's used but if it's a F fuse (fast blow) and not T (timed) then it may not like more than 5A's - just bare that in mind :)
