And it's way faster than the Dewalt unit that's on the front page. A much better value on this IMO.

I think it's the 3rd time it's been posted, maybe more. I bought it with the hack, so I appreciate it.

Here's one:

I was really skeptical that this hack worked. I bought eight Milwaukee tools using this hack over the last few months. I just purchased this inflator and it works amazing. I have a truck I had several other inflators, and they would take sometimes 20 minutes to pump up a tire. This one does it in a couple of minutes.

Just a heads up for others.

I was really considering this until I realized the only way you can use it is via the battery which is really limiting if you're in a bind without a battery.

Craftsman, DeWalt at least offer a 12V car plug with theirs in addition to the battery. Craftsman even offers theirs with all 3 power options (AC, 12V car jack, battery).

I'll wait until Milwaukee creates one with multiple power options, if ever.

All true about the Craftsman, plus it has an air mattress/inflatable toy attachment. I was already invest in the Milwaukee M18/M12 tools, and when I saw the Craftsman inflator, I went full on into that ecosystem as well...including the Craftsman Powerwheels Smilie

Thanks for pointing that out. Ace now has a 15% discount too so purchased craftsman instead. AC and 12V is rather important. I did not even realize Mileaukee does not even have AC…

If we only get the tool, won't we need the batteries anyways in order to operate this? Otherwise the tool won't work.

Let us know how quickly those will air up a truck tire versus this milwaukee one? I'd say the 12v options versus this option is almost apples to oranges.

No doubt it's slower. By how much? Not sure. 10%? 20%? But the extra power options are worth the trade off, at least for me. I only use it on occasion and not having to worry about battery is nice (though the option is still there).
