The OP said "don't use the code" for a reason. The fine print on both the coupon and on the free inflator deal specify that they can't be combined with other promotions. Prepare yourself for a cancellation.

You may want to check your order receipt now. The inflator won't be in there. If you apply any code, the inflator at final confirmation page will be disappeared and you won't get it

They pissed me off because they didn't even realize that they were in breach of the contract. They keep referring to their terms and conditions, which only said that "we may cancel your order, or we may contact you for instructions on the order". They had done neither. And it was laughable that they even said the inflator was "free", so it was OK to be removed from the order. What a bunch of incompetent and arrogant people. I will fight tooth and nail with them until they learn their lessons.

Bought it. I have way too many of these M12 batteries now.

For people who are deciding, one thing to remember is that this doesnt include a charger. Its just batteries, and the inflator(tool only)

Quote from Solandri :
If the pressure reading of both his inflators are off by the same amount, my hunch would be that it's more likely the pressure gauge he's using the verify their pressure is reading low by 3-4 pounds. Occam's razor and all that.
LMAO Yes, I agree! I thought it would be obvious to the other person. I think there's a reason he wanted to pass a bad message. It's much more likely he has a bad pressure gauge. Worse case scenario. it is off 3-4 lbs, and you just adjust accordingly. As long as it's consistent there isn't a problem. I have to adjust for bleed off every time.

Quote from swichers :
Did it not occur to you that instead of there being millions of defective devices being falsely advertised... the anonymous commentor is using an inaccurate way to check the measurement? Their margin of error is the same across different devices. If this was an unintended defect you'd expect some variation.

You've got far more comments from people saying it's +/- 1PSI but you're not giving those anywhere near as much weight as the one comment that says they are +/- 3 PSI. Instead you seem to have gone whole hog on Milwaukee being dastardly villains and pushing defective products.
Yeah, I'm not believing his message. There's more behind it. Maybe he's pissed off at Milwaukee or trying to get something from Milwaukee. The chances are MUCH better the pressure gauge (or whatever means) is inaccurate. The chances of buying two that are off by the same amount is highly unlikely, especially after reading all the reviews pointing out how accurate Milwaukee is. And he doesn't warranty either?? LMAOLMAO No, I'm calling BS on the play.

Any recommendations on a charger?
ebay: the 48-59-2401 is always <$20 and often <$15, which is astonishing because when packaged it's >1lb and thus ~$7 to ship.

This inflator is noisy and slow but its faster than a manual pump or dealing with an air hose. I'm guessing about a minute to raise from 29 to 34 PSI. I tighten the lugs on the next tire while it's filling the previous.

I've not used it with a 3.0 but it eats 1/4 of a 6.0 filling 4 tires from 29->34 PSI, so likely most of a 3.0.

Its Schrader connector screws on. If I used it more I'd buy a quick-clip but it's not too bad. Its inflator needle storage is appreciated and it gets well-used at the first basketball practice.

I've had no issues with its accuracy.

It moves very little air with each cycle so not suitable for high-volume applications like inflating beach toys or air mattresses, or if a tire needs a burst of air to seal like on your wheelbarrow.

Quote from EfficientSnail709 :
I'm just the messenger. That's what the post stated. Not a coincidence if it's a quality control problem....and not very funny if it results in under inflation or over inflation, as the user should be able to rely upon the built in gauge (if it's a higher quality product such as this).
No, it's not a coincidence "if" it's a quality control problem. That's highly unlikely the case. It is a coincidence if someone purchases two and they are BOTH off by the same amount.LMAO And he doesn't warranty either?? It's the pressure gauge he's using that's faulty, not the inflator. I think you know this. It's too obvious.

Plateaus and cannot reach max pressure in the big tires, so battery gets depleted too because it takes forever struggling compared to 20v inflators like Dewalt which handle bigger tires with ease. The m12 is fine for typical passenger car tires however like an Accord or Outback for example.
I'm sorta surprised. The M12 wasn't known for being unable and slow to inflate. In fact it was in many cases quicker than the Dewalt. But the M12 did swallow batteries like there's no tomorrow and that's why they changed to M18.

This isn't for large truck tires. However, it is perfect for most peoples use. Bike tires to suv tires it's fine. It is great for sports equipment and is also small and portable. The PSI readout and setting are great and I am very glad I got it. I use it more than I expected. Some people here make comments acting like know it all's when they never had one and never even used one. Then go on a diatribe like they are experts - it's comical. Others need to understand that this is not for Truck tires - it's not designed for that - got to keep the context of the product in mind. And as someone else said - there is a reason M came out with the M18.

I do not see the free inflator mentioned anywhere on my emailed receipt after ordering. I did not use any coupon codes. Did the inflator show on anyone's emailed receipts?

Coupon codes/promo codes always remove free goods. Its one or the other. Also, this deal is gone and being turned off. Sold way too many and Milwaukee doesn't have enough to fulfill backorders. Just an FYI I would stop trying. It will end up being a headache trying to get it all squared away and even if they were to honor it it could be months and months before they got them back in to send you the items. I spoke to their CS department. They were super helpful and apologetic, but they didn't have the inventory to deal with the influx of people trying to get it.

I'm willing to wait, and the CSR on the chat said that I would get the inflator. I'm mostly interested in the batteries and will sell the inflator to offset the cost.

I've had the M12 inflator for about a year now and can confirm that I also have an issue with the displayed PSI. Mine shows about 4 PSI higher than what it actually is, and I've verified with three different gauges (two digital, one high quality analog). That said, it's consistently off, so it's simply a matter of putting 39 instead of 35 when filling my tires. Doesn't bother me since I always use another gauge to verify.

I have one of the 6.0ah batteries that I use with the inflator. The little ones don't last long at all (which I also recently discovered with my M12 LED tower light). That's why the deal here is appealing -- the 3.0 batteries will be a nice change from the little 1.5 ones that I have.

I doubt anyone is going to get the inflators. I purchased it yesterday and it said backorderd (This Item Is No Longer Available Online), checked with customer service and they said no one is getting the inflators and IT is trying to take the deal off the website.
