Just bought one of the those Ryobi One+ power tools with the rechargeable batter...anyone used this as their pump???
I use it one. On the high flow setting only. It does not pump the kite up fully i finish it with a hand pump to correct pressure. It saves the back and since i pump up 2 kites every session it helps take the hard work out of it. They work great.
Was that because of battery issue/pumping power or fine tuning??
Battery is great im guessing it would pump up around 20 kites easy.
The high volume side just does not seam to do pressure enough for a kite anyway.
You could switch it over to the high pressure side but i would not trust it over inflating.
Its great for pumping up big kite and i find it easy to finish them with a hand pump.
If you want one pump to do it all this one may not be for you.
I have an adapter I rig up to my car exhaust when I need to inflate my 12m. The only downfall is you need to be careful when you deflate the kite. I had a friend who suffered a bout of carbon monoxide poisoning because he inhaled too much of the fumes. ![]()
I fart in mine and laugh as my mate dry reaches when he opens the deflate valve
