In the trunk of each car, I am afraid there is a toolbox, which is essential to have the four big: tripod, jack, pump, take electric treasure, can be said to be a combination of car travel magic weapon, whether we use the car on the way to hit, puncture, gas, electricity loss, may be used to them.

Tripod and jack are generally standard in the original car, so we added an inflator pump and electric treasure. Today, we talk about what pits there are in the purchase and use of the inflator pump. If you go in, you will pat your thigh. If you avoid it, you will be happy.

From the pit of choose and buy

Avoid pit 1, do not choose a single cylinder type of air pump, in general, the power of a single cylinder machine is low, it can also fill the air for bicycles and vans, the body of the heavy car is difficult to automatically raise the tire in the process of inflation. Recommend to buy a double cylinder machine, rated power is not less than 150W, more practical.

Avoid pit 2, do not choose the continuous working time is less, generally to the car completely deflated tire inflation standard, it takes a few minutes; If the continuous working time is less than 5 minutes, do not consider to buy, bought is also decoration, can not fill a tire to rest several times, just do not rest to burn waste. It is recommended to work as long as possible, such as half an hour, etc.

Avoid pit 3, do not easily choose and buy miscellaneous brands, don't look cheap, but not practical, buy back to lie in the toolbox, urgent time to pat thighs. Or big brand quality is better, but also to see the parameters. Poor quality of the pump, the critical time to save the emergency. The brand is not recommended. You can choose and buy according to the price and parameters according to the specific use needs.

Avoid using pit

After talking about the precautions for avoiding pits selected and purchased, let's talk about the precautions for avoiding pits in use. These pits are all stepped on in actual combat, and we hope to provide them to the cyclists without dropping the chain at the critical time.

Avoid pit 1, most of the car inflating pump can generally be in the process of inflation, with air pressure to lift the wheel, support the body weight, without jack assistance. But there are also small power, or the quality of the rough goods, do not jack up the tire in advance to assist, only with the inflating pump itself is difficult to put the flat tire up. Therefore, when the tire can not rise, remember to take out the jack, do not think that you can not fill the gas immediately called rescue, think more ways, otherwise the silver is wasted.

Avoid pit 2. Generally, the inflator pump is plugged into the cigarette lighter and powered on, and then the inflator switch is turned on for inflation. But in many cases, the electrification effect is not good when plugged into the cigarette lighter jack. At this moment, it is necessary to change the insertion position from the cigarette lighter port to the positive and negative terminal posts of the battery. In most cases, the effect will be more immediate than the cigarette lighter port. If it has been inserted in the cigarette lighter mouth, cattle do not press the head, more important will occur cigarette lighter and charging interface heating ablation, it is just busy in trouble, urgent in urgent.

Avoid pit 3. Most of the motor and wire of the inflator pump can't be inflated for a long time (such as more than 15 minutes without stopping), or continuously inflated for more than two wheels, there is a high probability that the wire will be hot, the plug will be burned, and even the motor will be burned, and the work can not be started again. The car inflator pump itself is an emergency tool, so if it is more than two wheels leak gas deflated, do not use the car inflator pump, is rescue, go to the repair shop professional tools inspection, inflation; If it is a little air or a flat tire, you can use a car inflator pump.

Vehicle inflator pump is an occasional emergency tool, can not be used as a regular inflation, to avoid damage. Of course, simply as a normal use in various scenarios, it is not impossible, but the effect will be poor, affecting the life span. But the ultimate goal should be clear, people-oriented, car-based, according to the specific scene conditions, flexible grasp. The goal of the pump is to serve for the car and people, rather than protect the pump for the purpose, can not put the cart before the horse, casket.
