I have an older version of that pump. It has worked well for me. Mine seems to be about 1.5 psi lower, so I just add that. I hadn’t had to think much about the duty cycle as I’m normally just adding a few psi, but I appreciate the benefit of your experience with that. Mostly I love the convenience of the battery and being able to quickly move around the car without the DC cord my old inflators had.
Thank you! I love this channel Every time I want a new Ryobi I come to this channel. This video told me this is exactly what I need for my pool floats Lawn tractor tires Bicycle tires and SUV ! this will be my 7th Ryobi tool. Yes, they are MY tools. Im a DIY gal
I love this channel. Every time I get a tool or project in mind, 9/10 times you've got a video to help me make my decision. Thank you for doing what you do!
Works great with topping off my high pressure tires on our fifth wheel. 10 psig from 65 to 75 in about 4 minutes with very little power drain on the battery. Does what I expected from it.
4:26 Ryobi's current handbook (for this style unit) says, "10min. on-10min. rest" Don't know if yours said differently at the making of this video, but I am updating/clarifying your review as a public service... 💪🏻
Thanks for the review. The high pressure is good to have since road bicycle tires require 110 psi to 130 psi. Unlike the semi-truck tire you mentioned, the volume is much less, so the cycle time on the compressor should never exceed the allocated time to fill it.
*Great air pump **MyBest.Tools** Faster than my old plug in pump and twice as handy without having to drag the cord around.And it works with my existing Ryobi drills battery.*
@7:05, actually this inflator has 3 rubber pads/feet on the side that's opposite to the LCD display. So I think it's meant to be laid flat on the ground with the LCD display facing up when in use.
Great review. Thank you! I love my Ryobi inflator/deflator and thought I'd give the tube storage another look after you mentioned not knowing how to correctly store it around the housing either and floats around. If you take a close look at the storage part on the side, it has the directions actually imprinted on how to correctly wrap it around (between in inflator/deflator markings). Just tried it out and it works!
You're not missing much. The instructions are average. I'm a french canadian and had to read in english because they obviously used a translating tool like google. Pathetic. BTW, Transport Canada made soem research and for each 2 psi you are below the recommanded pressure, your fuel consumption will be 1% higher. If your four tires are 3 psi below, that's 6% more fuel...
Did not read the manual, have not been using duty cycles at all... whoops. I've probably put about 75 minutes of runtime on this thing, fill my RAM ProMaster 2500 tires to 80 PSI no problem, and done some inflatable pools. Thanks for the heads up.
Good review thorough enough not just 3 or4 minutes and I liked the examples you talked about and the fact you checked with a different gage. This Ryobi beats our some smaller inflators where you have to keep your finger on the trigger - that's okay inflating a ball or small mattress but not a car tyre.. Definitely width having as kit round the house and I'd do what you've done and install the 6 ah battery so the unit doesn't struggle as much.
I picked this up for 48.00 bucks @ home depot 10% military discount covered taxes. For 48.00 it does a pretty Damm good job inflating my super expensive tires on my Mustang, my 4 runner, and my Harley Road Glide. Remember when you go into something where to set your expectations. For 48.00 this met my expectations perfect it inflates my tires to the correct pressure.
I’m glad they replaced the old model. My first one’s screen and buttons started freaking out so I bought a replacement (same model). I just bought this newer one when the old model breaks again.
Great video thank you as thinking of getting one for upcoming camping trip to keep up the air in the tyres. Lots of information thankyou. I am still thinking about staying with a foot pump but if need air on muddy ground could be a issue
I have the older model. I use it to do my ram 2500 8 ply tires rated at 70psi. I set it for 50psi and I check it and its always at 49. It absolutely will not go past 50 for its duty cycle. The higher pressures are for speciality bike tires.
Just ordered one from Home Depot. I only need it to top off tires and not needing to drag my large compressor or portable air tank out is worth what I paid for it.
I too really enjoy the Dewalt but my instructions say nothing about it being over 100 psi for the duty cycle. Might be that my instructions are from a model that was just released?
WorkshopAddict actually I got that info from another TH-cam video. So I guess take that with a grain of salt. I have seen where the dewalt inflator was continuously used for 20 mins without issue.
@@medpilot IMHO, ignoring a duty cycle is like shooting without ear protection. You might not notice it right away, but sooner than later, you cant hear anymore and your inflator is broke.
I guess I abuse the sh*t out of my dewalt inflator. I use the low pressure high volume then switch to the high pressure low volume to blow up my inflatable paddle board to 13.5 psi. This is done when it's usually 90-100 degrees Fahrenheit out. Then, I do the same thing to my girlfriends board. Each board takes about 30 min. Been doing this for a few years now and my dewalt still works fine.
I prefer the previous version, mostly for the tire valve connector. The old one used a thumb lever to lock onto the stem, I don't like the new style. When mine died I sought out another of the old version to replace it with instead of the new one.
Not Smart. You can burn it up. In fact most have complained about the rubber tube failing at the connection point near the pump. That is due to overheating this unit.
If they put a digital pressure controller why can't they just add a temperature sensor so it can cycle on off on its own? The electronic brain is already there. Just needs a thermocouple and couple lines of code
I just purchased and the notification in the manual indicates a duty cycle of 10 minutes on/off…do you think they improved the product since this review?
I do not think they improved it. Run it 5 minutes and feel the air hose. My guess is that it will be very, very warm. I think they are just pushing it a bit so more people buy it.
I had the Ryobi batteries already and use the P747 to adjust the PSI in my vehicle tires every few months or as needed (spare tires also). Use the inflator for my pedal bikes. It is small enough to toss in the hatch on road trips.
Is there any way that a universal quick disconnect can be adapted for use on the high-pressure side? I don't like to have to screw on the air hose and would like to use a Jaco quick disconnect.
So do you set the pressure inflator to the psi value you want it to inflate to in automatic mode like say my car tires are low at 20 psi and I want to inflate to 35 psi how would that work?
Hi! Do you think it's possible to hook up a spray-paint pistol to this? I know it's a stupid question, would really appreciate if you got the time to reply! Thanks!
@@edgaryzen4925 1.5 Ah works on this. It is small and will not run overly long. That battery is made for small tools and will not deliver much power, even on drills. So if you stick with this brand, get larger Ah batteries.
I've got the Milwaukee and I love it. In fact, I just used it today to blow the crud out of my keyboard. For filling up the kids bike tires and checking a car tire from time to time you can't beat it. It's far easier than having to power up the big compressor and dragging a hose line out to the driveway.
I fill my 35's on my jeep with it, but only to go from 32 to 36 psi. It takes a long time with larger tires and has a duty cycle that you do not want to go over.
@@WorkshopAddict if you have a chance it would be a neat test to run the inflator for the 5mins take a temp then point one of those cordless fans at it and run the test again
@@aaronporter2180 the temps are high from the internal friction and compression of the air. A fan will do nothing. Sorry, if you look at how they are built and made, it might be more clear.
@@WorkshopAddict that's like saying the heat created in internal combustion engine is created by exploding gas so air flow couldn't help cool the motor and yet air cooled engines exist
Mehhh Personally I went this route I only need a small compressor to have in my truck toolbox.. I went to Walmart and got a 800watt power Inverter And went to harbor freight and bought a 3 gallon compressor.(I already had hoses And fittings ECT) So 90$ later it has bailed me out of countless situations.. and I personally feel it's more of a long term solution (over a year so far) And I just rely on my vehicle battery.. Very good points on using it just for bike tires n such.. Mine gets used for truck and car tires. Trailer tires And when I cut firewood..it gets used to blow off saws as well
Do u know if that works off of a little piston or something like a reed valve ? You would think that they could do some kind of a hybrid system..i know keeping the size down is important but a 5 minute duty cycle needs some improvement.....using some parts off a little compressor compatible with whatever battery you were using would be a must. I have a dead flexvolt compressor as well as a dead DeWalt inflator......hmmmm. Maybe there will be a marriage Good video hoss...
This is another repackaged Ryobi inflator, every Green inflator that they have come out with the coupler between the motor and the pump shear off before you hit 85 PSI. if you're trying to blow up a trailer tire, the only good inflavor that's ever come from Ryobi has been the original blue one shaped kind of like a football it's oval in nature with an inflator deflator on one side, and a high-pressure on the other side. I still have that tool and it is out lasted four of the different Ryobi green ones that I've had since then.
I hit 125 with this, but was pushing the duty cycle and it was HOT. No failure. This should be rated for an 80 PSi max as it is slow over that on normal tires.
Just got this tip maintain my ninja motorcycle tires since i never do for a lack of having this. I imagine since i never do it being a couple psi off wont get me killed. That saidi did but this to do the weekly psi checks on my bike people recommend so my question is if anyone had any on if i should put that extra couple psi through in manual
Set it for a half pound more than what you want and that will account for any loss you might have removing the hose. This has been a pretty accurate tool and once it is done pumping will give you a readout of the PSI in the tire. No need to add much more than a half psi and that is really not needed.
I was just at Home Depot looking at this inflator, it said it could pump up ten tires in 20 minutes on one charge, really? That would be great even on a 12v viair! Oh and it said inflator/ deflator… maybe new model?
@@WorkshopAddict it is nice and compact for its output but even with a m12 6.0 battery it seems to run out of steam rather quickly. apply that same milwaukee quality to an 18 volt version with a longer duty cycle and you have a winner.
@@EnthusiastsGarage Duty cycle is what kills these faster than battery life IMHO... If you follow the duty cycle rules, you can almost recharge the battery while it cools. LOL
We have used the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
Just a comment about the heat and the duty cycle. Most people probably think it is the motor and compressor that are getting hot which makes the air hot. But I think it is the other way around. When a gas is compressed, it gets hotter. That's how air conditioners work to move heat out of your house even though it is hotter outside. I think it is actually this hot air that is heating up the pump more than the pump heating itself up. Look at the video "Fire Syringe" (th-cam.com/video/4qe1Ueifekg/w-d-xo.html) to see an extreme example of this. Using this logic, if you used that cool thermal camera and checked the hose temperature of a foot pump used to fill a bicycle tire to 100 lbs, it should also get pretty hot. Thanks for this video. I think I am going to get one of these.
I think you are partially right. However, these are oil free inflator and the way they compress air adds to the heat. The better inflator do not use plastic in the areas where they see heat.
Anybody mod a Ryobi dual inflator/deflator? Looking for examples with a dual-head air chuck, like you might want for truck tires. Or any other mods to the hose?
This model is the biggest piece of junk I ever bought from Ryobi! I didn't even get to use it once and the hose broke off from the inside of the pump! I took it apart to see where it had broken off at...where the hose attaches to the plastic nozzle at the pump is under so much pressure, they have it bent at a 90 degree angle, which put so much stress on the plastic that it snapped off. I had the older model and it was build like a tank, had it for over 2 years and used it over 150 times.
The 5 minute use/rest periouds, might not be true, depending on the outdoor temperature. I find my tires lose air the most when it's cold (-20 C). Cooler temps means, at least in my experience, no duty cycle limits.
Bought one for $35.00, it wasn't until I got home before I realized that it did not come with a battery, or a battery charger. You should mention this little detail.
@@inoahmann7542 yes I do and work shop addict said the same thing I did in this vid. It has a five minute duty cycle but it does not shut off manually. As a matter of fact the newer instructions say 10 minute duty cycle but I would stick to five, they just revised the instructions to attract more buyers.
WORKSHOTADDICT, which brands are the best power Inflator that won't get hot or overheat the compressor that is a handheld power inflator? I heard you have to get 18v to 20volt for the PSI to go over 65psi and it will pump air faster into the cars tire. The 12v power inflators take 5mins to pump air from a tire that measures 25psi to get it to 35psi which is 5 mins for only pumping 10psi into the tire.
I have an older version of that pump. It has worked well for me. Mine seems to be about 1.5 psi lower, so I just add that. I hadn’t had to think much about the duty cycle as I’m normally just adding a few psi, but I appreciate the benefit of your experience with that. Mostly I love the convenience of the battery and being able to quickly move around the car without the DC cord my old inflators had.
I no longer use my compressor to fill up tires unless they are new mounts. Love these inflators!
Have this and love it I was nervous about the heat after first use until I figured out the duty cycle. Great review as always!

Pressure will be off at high psi due to thermal cooling. As that hot air cools inside tire, pressure will drop.

Regarding semi tires, would you really ever need this for that? Aren’t there fittings that let you use the trailer air supply to inflate tires?
For my use on our passenger cars, it’s fine, especially for only $35 at HD. I’m going to add a little length with a Schrader locking tire chuck.

Yes, you can set a target psi and it will automatically shut off at that psi.

Compare it to Milwaukee M12 tire inflator please.
Mehhh
Personally I went this route
I only need a small compressor to have in my truck toolbox..
I went to Walmart and got a 800watt power Inverter
And went to harbor freight and bought a 3 gallon compressor.(I already had hoses And fittings ECT)
So 90$ later it has bailed me out of countless situations.. and I personally feel it's more of a long term solution (over a year so far)
And I just rely on my vehicle battery..
Very good points on using it just for bike tires n such..
Mine gets used for truck and car tires. Trailer tires
And when I cut firewood..it gets used to blow off saws as well
Does the pressure gauge work on the low pressure side?

No piston, just two small non lubricated diaphragm like pumps.
Great job! And thanks!
Fantastic inflator
How do you like that Milwaukee M12 infrared gun
I have a sprinter van with dual rear tires, any idea if you can add an air extension chuck to this unit to get to the inner tire?
It looks like you would have to find one that would screw into the hose like a valve assembly. Not sure on this.
If the pressure gauge gets off, power it up and press run and mode till the display flashes, it will reset it to zero
Hi , is there attachment for presta cycle tires? Thanks
Yes, and it is fussy to use. Do not screw it on too far or it will push open the presta valve and not let it close.
This looks really nice. I'm wondering if it will fill a one person kayak (low pressure type).
Yes, it will, just remember the duty cycle.
@@WorkshopAddictwondering the same thing for my paddle board. Will my paddle board pump tube connect to it? How can I know?
Good info, Could you review the Harbor Frieght inflator when you get a chance?
If you are topping off your tire pressure on all four tires, will this have consistent shut off pressure?
Yes, I do all 4 tires and it is very consistent.
How much does it weigh? and what air pressure does it produce?
Not sure but it’s really light and up to 150 psi

The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
great vid, ima get me one.
thank you! i almost bought this piece of junk! lol
Not a word on the battery.
Is the battery included
A battery is not included, no.
Great video
Just a comment about the heat and the duty cycle. Most people probably think it is the motor and compressor that are getting hot which makes the air hot. But I think it is the other way around. When a gas is compressed, it gets hotter. That's how air conditioners work to move heat out of your house even though it is hotter outside. I think it is actually this hot air that is heating up the pump more than the pump heating itself up. Look at the video "Fire Syringe" (th-cam.com/video/4qe1Ueifekg/w-d-xo.html) to see an extreme example of this.
Using this logic, if you used that cool thermal camera and checked the hose temperature of a foot pump used to fill a bicycle tire to 100 lbs, it should also get pretty hot.
Thanks for this video. I think I am going to get one of these.
I think you are partially right. However, these are oil free inflator and the way they compress air adds to the heat. The better inflator do not use plastic in the areas where they see heat.
Anybody mod a Ryobi dual inflator/deflator? Looking for examples with a dual-head air chuck, like you might want for truck tires. Or any other mods to the hose?
This model is the biggest piece of junk I ever bought from Ryobi! I didn't even get to use it once and the hose broke off from the inside of the pump! I took it apart to see where it had broken off at...where the hose attaches to the plastic nozzle at the pump is under so much pressure, they have it bent at a 90 degree angle, which put so much stress on the plastic that it snapped off. I had the older model and it was build like a tank, had it for over 2 years and used it over 150 times.
I cant use this to check my engine pressure huh
No 12V is a shame
The 5 minute use/rest periouds, might not be true, depending on the outdoor temperature. I find my tires lose air the most when it's cold (-20 C). Cooler temps means, at least in my experience, no duty cycle limits.
I go up to 150, I made a little homemade nerf gun and I managed to take it up to 150
🙂👍👍
Bought one for $35.00, it wasn't until I got home before I realized that it did not come with a battery, or a battery charger. You should mention this little detail.
the package states, “tool only.” this means tool only and no battery
$35 should have told you it’s tool only as even the smallest 1.5ah battery cost more than that normally
How can a manufacturer put out a product with no lubrication or cooling. This duty cycle really stinks.
5 minute duty no good. 4 tires would take too long if very low pressure on each tire.
I have run mine for way longer. The inflator will shut itself down when it gets too hot.
@@inoahmann7542 it does not turn off, it’s not a “smart tool”, it will burn itself up.
@@6atlantis do you have one? I've actually seen mine turn itself off after running for a while.
@@inoahmann7542 yes I do and work shop addict said the same thing I did in this vid. It has a five minute duty cycle but it does not shut off manually. As a matter of fact the newer instructions say 10 minute duty cycle but I would stick to five, they just revised the instructions to attract more buyers.
Chick tool
Perfect present for your boyfriend this Christmas 🎄
WORKSHOTADDICT, which brands are the best power Inflator that won't get hot or overheat the compressor that is a handheld power inflator? I heard you have to get 18v to 20volt for the PSI to go over 65psi and it will pump air faster into the cars tire. The 12v power inflators take 5mins to pump air from a tire that measures 25psi to get it to 35psi which is 5 mins for only pumping 10psi into the tire.
