The 88P's motor draws more current, so it had to be equipped with alligator clips that connect directly to your vehicle's battery. The cigarette lighter plug models draw less current and can be accessed from your car's interior.

Quick, easy, actually does the job. Air hose plus cable = 26 ft.
Style: Original 88P
Very straightforward to use and pretty quiet too. Nice carrying bag makes it easy to carry in the car. Weighs less than 5lb (2.25 kg). Decent length power cable and air hose will reach any wheel on suv or pickup. If you tow a trailer then check if 26 ft will be enough to reach all the trailer wheels without unhooking it. Took my Land Rover suv tyre from flat to 38psi in just a few minutes. Two minor niggles which are not serious enough to take it below 5 stars. 1) It's easy to forget about adiabatic heating. Both the motor AND the air hose can very very hot so maybe a little warning label would be good. 2) It comes with adaptors for a variety of uses in addition to tyres. One of them was loose in a little plastic bag and easy to lose.

Powerful and Compact
Style: Original 88P
Really pleased with this pump. I got it to fill the 33” tires on my truck and it did a really fantastic job. The battery connectors were sturdy and held on to the battery easily and a simple on/off switch, the hose was long enough to reach the rear passenger tire without any issue, and it filled the tires to 40psi very quickly. It also comes in a canvas bag that fit all of the components without being a tight squeeze. I was worried about the price because, for something like this, a cheaper option usually gets the job done, but I definitely feel like I got my moneys worth this time. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with 33” tires or smaller and to people with trucks.

Excellent Air Compressor
Style: Original 88P
This is an excellent air compressor. Better than what you may need. This air compressor is a great product. It is probably better than what you may need. But as the saying goes, it never hurts to buy something better than what you need. You will never regret buying quality. I keep this air compressor in the trunk of my Honda Accord. I chose this model because it has alligator clips that connect directly to the battery rather than the cigarette lighter socket. Now, my Honda has small tires, 205s. I suspect the smaller models, the kind that plugs into your car's cigarette lighter socket, will be powerful enough to inflate my tires. But I chose this model because I also have a sport-utility that has bigger tires. This air compressor is powerful enough to inflate large tires with ease. To get this level of performance, it is necessary for the compressor to have a powerful motor. This powerful motor draws a lot of current. More current than the typical lighter socket can provide. Enough to blow the fuse on a typical lighter socket. That is why the more power air compressors connect directly to the car battery with alligator clips. Be careful when connecting this air compressor to your battery. Concentrate on the task. You do not want to mix up the polarity. Also, if your car has a small displacement four cylinder engine, your battery will be pretty wimpy. So keep your engine running while you operate the compressor, otherwise you might run down your small battery. All of this should tell you that this air compressor is not for everybody. These types of air compressors, the ones that connect directly to the battery terminals, are for those who know something about cars and batteries. You do not want to mix up the polarity when connecting. If you know nothing about cars, this compressor is not for you. In that case, get a smaller compressor that plugs to the cigarette lighter socket because you cannot mistake the polarity that way. It will be safer for somebody who is not a car person. But know that your socket driven air compressor is not going to inflate your tires as fast and as easily as this unit. There is always a trade off. Speaking of trade offs, I chose this model over a competing model that has a coiled hose. This unit comes with an uncoiled hose. It is more flexible than the type that comes coiled like a spring. This unit, with its uncoiled air hose, is harder to store but it is easier to use during a stressful emergency situation. Yes, you will have to find a way to pack the hose neatly. But to me, it is better to put up with hassle while you're at your driveway packing the car rather than at the side of the road with a flat tire. So while the coiled variety packs easily and neatly, that coiled hose will fight you when you want to stretch it from the compressor to your tire. And that will happen at the most inconvenient time at the worst location. A model with a coiled hose is neater and packs better, so it is not necessarily a deal breaker. You just have to know your own situation. If you have a small vehicle and are short on space, sure, get a model with a springy, coiled hose. Just know the trade offs, because that springy coil will be harder for you when it comes time to actually use the compressor. This unit comes in a nice box, but it does not come with a case. That should not be a deal breaker because it is easy to buy a cheap bag. Either keep it in its own box in your trunk or buy a small kit bag. I recommend that you keep all of the parts in one place because you do not want to be looking for parts during an emergency. Do what you can now to make sure that you do not add to your stress level during a road emergency. Highly recommended. This is an excellent air compressor for those who know cars. The unit feels like it is of good quality and the performance is very good. The air hose is easy to use. The alligator clips are sturdy enough, though I would want them sturdier.

Reliable, Powerful, and a Must-Have for Every Vehicle
Style: Original 88P
I’m very impressed with this VIAIR portable air compressor. The quality is excellent, and it comes in a durable carrying bag that keeps everything organized and easy to store in my truck. The compressor is well-built, easy to use, and does a great job inflating tires quickly. The hose and power cord are long enough to comfortably reach all four tires, and the unit runs smoothly without feeling cheaply made. It gives me peace of mind knowing I have a reliable tire inflator whenever I’m on the road or at a job site. If you’re looking for a dependable, high-quality portable tire pump, I highly recommend this VIAIR compressor. It’s definitely worth the investment and is something every vehicle should have in its emergency kit.

Viair 88p
Style: Original 88P
Excellent compressor. VIAIAR is a great & trusted brand. They are used by many different people, especially offroader/overlanders. They have many different options & sizes. Ive used it to air up my lawnmower tires so far. From 0 psi to 30 psi in about 10 sec. Havent used it on my Jeep tires yet (33"). Battery connections are great (my Jeep has no cigarette lighter style plug), plus straight to the battery is more reliable for power. Only thing to watch out for is it will get hot. This is a real compressor, not a yuppie soccer mom plastic clad compressor. Carry bag is really nice quality. For this price, its worth it.

Inflates 33 Inch Diameter Tires Easily!
Style: Original 88P
SEEMS VERY QUALITY-MADE and should last. Fills my 1 inch/slightly lifted, 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro's four, "approximately 33 inch diameter" B.F. Goodrich KO2 tires nearly effortlessly (barely gets hot really) from 18 psi for off-road, to 30 psi for on-road. I like to run them at this "Stock Vehicle" pressure which does just fine, currently at least. I think they're more comfortable at 30 psi on-road, and the truck seems to handle, and even accelerate slightly better "to me". But I have had them up to 40 psi before too. Which one guy recommended for me. Of course, I'm sure it could easily fill 1 tire from essentially 0 to 30 psi completely effortlessly, so long as the tire is still/already "seated fully on the wheel rim's bead" surface. (BTW, an Australian Tacoma off-road guy on YouTube re-seats tires onto the rim bead, using just WD-40 and a match! However that's PRETTY SCARY for your fingers! And supposedly there are "other tricks" too which I'm unaware of. To "seat" a tire on a rim bead one must have a large "burst" of air or gases; Simply "an inflator" can't accomplish this). Just be sure your engine is running WHILE you fill so as not to stress your battery or drain it. I would DEFINITELY "recommend this product to anyone" with this size tires, or smaller. It will store VERY NICELY in a cheap Harbor Freight Tools "METAL 50 caliber Ammo Box" (which I would recommend for it very much!) I believe I got that, "metal 50 cal. Ammo Box idea" from another review, right on here! (THANKS!) Had one just laying around already. Stores great within it, and you might even never have to wait for it to cool down because they're METAL boxes. But "your mileage may vary" with that, due to different pressures and tire sizes! All in all, it's a GREAT little tire inflator and I'm VERY glad I didn't go with one of the higher size/psi rated ones. If you think "very carefully" about using the larger ones, there's usually "some esoteric drawbacks" with using them. One minor caveat is the built-in pressure gauge could be slightly more accurate. It will get you to 1 or 2 psi of what you try for. A separate, accurate, small guage is required to be more spot on. It was a very "good buy" and quiet too, at around $80 at the time of this writing. And I DEFINITELY DIDN'T require a larger/more expensive one, at all. REMEMBER the $15 H.F. METAL 50 CAL. AMMO BOX doesn't come with it. Pick that up "another time down the road" at your leisure. It's a winner, Best Luck Out There!

great little compressor
Style: Original 88P
i decided to get me a compressor because i just spent $3 trying to fill up my tires at a gas station and that didn't fix my low tire pressure warning. the gauge wasn't consistent, and for some reason the chuck didn't attach well to my tire. being able to do it at home before i go anywhere, actually lets me fill up at cold pressure, as opposed to driving to a gas station a few miles away, which may or may not work. plus, i can fill it up at my own leisure, instead of rushing to get everything done before the machine shuts off and i have to add another $1. decided to get this one because of the good ratings, total hose/cord lengh and it connected directly to the battery, instead of the cigarette lighter. my car only can do up to 10A, so that prevented me from getting a decent lighter port compressor. the 88p works great so far. fills up my tires quickly. the screw on chuck is secure, the unit isn't too loud when inflating. the clips are a little short, but i can work with it. the length of both the hose and power cord give me plenty of reach for the tires on my car. because the screw on is secure, i can go and stay by the unit and not have to worry about it coming off. unlike some of viair's higher end compressors, the gauge is built-in to the handle of the unit, as opposed to having the gauge at the chuck end. this is great because the gauge is right next to the power switch. you don't have to turn it off, and walk over to the tire to look at the gauge. the gauge seems pretty consistent. based on my nissan leaf's easy tire alert system (which honks once when it's filled to 36 psi, and honks multiple times when it gets to 40 psi), the gauge is 2 psi high. that, compared to my tiretek tire gauge, which is only 1 psi high. the tiretek gauge is only 60 psi though, so based on max psi (88p's 120 psi vs tiretek's 60 psi), both are high, but within their 2% specs. one thing that would be nice is a pressure release valve. but i knew that going in and since my other tire gauge has a value, i just over inflate it a bit and use my tire gauge to bring it back down. the unit does get hot when filling up tires (i deflated my tires to about 30 psi, and filled them all back up to 40), so maybe add in a little break time before putting it away. note: this does NOT come with a bag. i'm using a duffle bag that's a little on the big side, but i'm using it to hold my other tire gauge and bag of tire caps as well. another plus with the bigger bag is that i can put it in the bag without zipping it up so that it can cool down without touching the sides of the bag at all. i have not and probably won't use the tips, so i can't say anything about those.

Great Little Compressor
Style: Original 88P
I got this little compressor after reading reviews about it and determined this was the best fit for my needs. Pros: - Provides good pressure in a reasonable time frame - Light enough to carry around and store in Jeep - Power cord and Air Cord good length - Easy to attach to battery - Nice storage bag Cons: - Air Pressure gauge not extremely accurate - Not the cheapest solution So I took this on the trail with me a few times to see how it stood up to a 3 days of trail riding. That is 3 days, each day, airing down the tires and the re-inflating them after the trail. The compressor stood up to the test with flying colors. I keep my 35s at about 38 pounds. I air them down to 12 pounds on the trail. It took the compressor roughly 3 minutes 11 seconds to air up a tire from 12 pounds to 35 pounds. That is pretty good considering it took my retired compressor almost 9 minutes per tire. So I was able to air up and get back on the road in a little over 12 minutes. While it did air up the tires rather quickly. The actual pressure is off a bit. The compressor registered 35 pounds. However, an independent tire gauge reported 28 - 32 pounds depending on the tire tested. Not sure why the discrepancy but regardless it was enough to make it home and use my DeWalt compressor to finish the job. NOTE: This compressor gets really hot !!! I mean really hot !!! So be careful that you don't touch anything except the handle. I made the mistake of leaning on it to steady myself while disconnecting it from the tire. Will not make that mistake again .. The air hose will also get rather hot .. but nothing like the compressor. It gets so hot in fact that I decided not to put it back in its bag until I got home to give it a chance to cool down. I didn't want it to melt the bag. All in all, I am very pleased with the compressor and it will suit my needs well. Hoping it will stand the test of time as well.
