The DeWalt 20V Max is the device to own if you frequently need to inflate items other than tires. It has both a high-pressure mode with automatic shutoff for inflating tires and a high-volume mode for inflating—and deflating—items like air mattresses.

I also like that the DeWalt works with my existing 20V batteries for a drill and all-purpose saw. Furthermore, the DeWalt offers a Triple Power Source. That type of flexibility is important for me because I don’t want to be limited to my truck's 12V car plug.
