I have this inflator and several other Ryobi inflators because I use them a lot. The build quality is horrifically bad on the pump, so I try not to run them for more than five minutes at a time without a cool down.
Quick comment for users: Be aware of where and how you are placing these units. Last thing you want it to suck up some sand/dirt/debris and have it ruin your day.
It sounds exactly the same as their cheaper, trigger grip inflator does. I bet it's got the same compressor section inside and that's not a good thing! Those run too hot, are very slow and like to seize up if you use them too long. I am sure it's OK to use to inflate small tires on wheelbarrows and bikes, or inflatable pool toys, but I would opt for something else to use on car tires. I burnt one of their other inflators out trying to inflate a 155 80 R13 on a Geo Metro! Thanks for the review with full sound as it helped me decide not to buy one.
actually I've used mine hundreds of times, mostly in the dead of winter in Nebraska. my wife's Murano and my explorer were constantly having pressure issues due to the extreme cold. I used this device daily and it never failed me. worked perfectly. I have the grip inflator you're referring to as well, it has always worked well but I don't want to stand out in the extreme cold. much better to set the PSI and sit inside the warm vehicle or house. the grip one never has failed me either but it does run very hot, so it has had me concerned a few times. I don't think the motors in the sound quite identical though, but who knows how similar they might be. either way, I wouldn't let that dissuade me from buying this device. I bought two of them from direct tools brand new for between 32 and $35 each. one is still sitting new in box and is kept as a spare.
I use this on my inflatable kayak, both high volume (initially) and high pressure (top off), and I don't think the gauge is very accurate at lower PSI's (I use mine at 3PSI and 10PSI).
I use this often. Top my tires off, inflated sons basketball, my daughters pool floats(and deflated them and pretty much anything else. very versatile and well worth the $39 I paid for it
how do you unscrew the factory nozzle on the high volume side to fit an adapter like the Halkey-Roberts valve? the p747 doesn't seem to have removable nozzle on the high volume side like the p731 did.
About how long will this stay charged without use. Just say you charge it full and just leave in your car fir that “just in case” moment. Do you think it will keep the charge? Like what if it’s been 6 months or whatever.
@@donsmith9478 I stated a 4 amp battery nowhere did I mention anything about voltage. Perhaps you should Google the difference to better understand what I was conveying?
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!
The circuit board inside the pump is probably defective. Ryobi told me it is not repairable. Mine is set for 35, shuts off after 5 seconds, and the display shows 40-47 psi.
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?
Up to no good.. Why do you set uo this product for at torture test? Read the manual. Max 5 mins of running time, after let it rest for another 5 mins. Read the manual. Most concernig, while other will use the pump your way, And will potensrally not be able to claim their warranty, due to abuse of the Ryoby. Pls threat your tools as you'd threat your lady.
Four and a half minutes into a twelve minute video and you still haven't started using it. Stop flapping your gums and get to it. It's an inflator. I promise you there's not that much to talk about.
The battery is not the problem, and the CAPACITY of the battery is only an indication of how much energy the battery will have over time. It's 5 Ah (amp-hours), not 5 amps.
This only has a 5 minute duty cycle. Do not run it more then that unless you want to shorten it's life!
I think the manual says that you shouldn't run it for more than 5 minutes continuously without letting it cool down.
So does it still work? If so this is great. It means it’s shutting itself off before it blows the motor
After a few months I got the death rattle and ryobi sent me a brand new one and told me to keep the old one
Thank you for the review!!!!

which is required bu the user manual.

Thanks gonna get one
Seems a bit underpowered 🤔 But if it had jump leads on it I'd probably buy it.
It'd be a good purchase for the car, but as is, just not enough power.

@@justinsgarage1125 $39? That's a good price.

That's a question for the battery you use, not the device itself.
The lithium battery should hold a good charge at least for several months.
I use a 4 amp battery with mine and I think it works faster than yours shows. So try a larger battery next time if you have one.
The CAPACITY of the battery has practically nothing to do with the voltage that runs the pump.

It appears that your inflator is not pumping air as it should.
It’s says in the instructions 5 mins on five mins of
No doubt...but I was putting it to the test and pushing it to the limit. Too many people throwing shade Ryobi’s way but they have some great tools
The instructions say 5 mins on and 5 mins rest.
Think of it of a torture test. I put it through the paces so you don’t have to 😎

Yeah, I don’t think so. I mean I haven’t tried it but I’m not sure it’s equipped for that.
5 MINUTES, PRIVATE PYLE!
5 F***ING MINUTES, PRIVATE PYLE!
CAN'T YOU READ THE DIRECTIONS???
Hi , can you inflate presta valve tires on bicycles? Does it come with an attachment for that? Thanks
YES!
Mines keeps shutting off at 3psi after its set at 35psi. What am I doing wrong?

that is correct, 5 minutes
Happy camper here

😘
your battery it's too small 5 amp its minimum

nice video, horrible noise, jut got deaf !
Appreciate the feedback…I’ll definitely keep that In mind for future videos
Yaaaawwnn. These inflators are good for bicycles, basketballs and pool toys.
They are. And they’re good for car tires, idk what you’re getting at here captain obvious
My Ryobi P747 has functioned as it should for 5 years so far.
Second!!
