Air Compressor

My little air compressor is not strong enough to adequately fill my RV tires to 75psi. I am looking to purchase one that I could possibly take on the road with me that will fill the tires. Any suggestions. I was looking at this one?https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09F9L6HFK...r%20Rv%20Tires

or should I go with one that plugs into electricity?

Any that goes over 100 psi will work, just a matter of how long it takes.

I think the one you linked should do it, the question is; will you get a good one? It's the gamble when ordering these days.

I have zero experience with that model.

I have used a 12 volt Thomas compressor, very slow, but got the job done.

A pancake 120 volt 150 psi, when we had our Dutch Star and 42" tires. Much,much faster on regular tires, but you had to run the genny to use it.

Right now with our class C I have a Ryobi compressor that uses their 18 volt battery packs. I already have the batteries, so it was an easy decision. It's faster than the Thomas. Slower than the pancake. However, it has it's own power supply and is more flexible in use simply because it has no cord. I've filled 4 31X10.50R15 tires from 10 psi to 35 psi on half of a 9 ah battery. Topping off the rv tires is a nonevent.

So, if you already have a cordless power tool line up, check to see what they offer first.

Here is what I use...runs on both 120V and 12v and each end cap has a door for storage of cords/needles. Not the faster but lightweight and gets my tires to 80PSI fairly quickly.
