That's probably a very smart idea, but I've topped off four 245/75R16 tires to as much as 80psi without any issue.

It's definitely better to let it cool down after every tire, but mine hasn't failed from never doing that.

I would never be foolish enough to run it continuously for more than a few minutes at a time. It's better for topping off tires and inflating balls than it is for completely filling tires.

I use it all the time, and I love it.

I waited forever to get one of these after reading all the comments here every time this pops up. I finally just ended up getting one a yr ago and use it almost daily to fill up car tires, sports balls, and I bring it to the bike trail to fill up everyone's tires on my ride. Very handy and great tool.

I have one, it works great but does get pretty hot after topping off only 2 tires so I have to let it cool in between

That's a good policy for any non-commercial small motor. The duty cycle is meant for short uses.

Manual reads:
"NOTICE: The inflator is not designed for continuous use. For every five minutes of inflator use, five minutes of cool down time are required. Routinely exceeding the duty cycle can reduce the life of the tool"

I have 2x of these and really like them.
only thing it lacks is a "high volume" function for inflatables, but that's more of a 2in1 device.

Price has been better but I really like this product.
I have one in both of my cars. The 12v adapter is decent enough to not have to carry a battery in the car.
Lifetime warranty too. I highly recommend even at this price.

Can one buy with the batteries for 149 and return the batteries for an out-the-door price of $36?

Great deal. I have one that's used on lawn mower tires every summer. Can also top off car tires.

It's also great to use when your wife is asking you to do something for her that she saw online so you can pretend you didn't hear her.

You could. It's kinda weird to do the Free Tool hack to save $13.

Usually I'd add something like the $150 Ridgid Multi-tool to the bundle to bring it's price down to $75, and the return the batteries. But you do you.

The nozzle on the inflator is the WORST. It's finicky and looks like it will wear out.

You never know if it's fully on or not.

Even $10 inflators from Walmart use a more secure nozzle.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this.

I got this last year during black friday and I love it. The milwaukee will fill your tires up a little bit faster but funny thing is I find myself using this more as a mini blower for my wood shop to get dust out of all the small crevices.

I love this one the most compared to other brand. It's the perfect size and it can plug into the car or regular outlet. Dewalt also does but Dewalt one is bigger and cumbersome for some case. Milwaukee can only do battery and it's the biggest.
I also have Ryobi small one that I carry with me on bike ride.

Tip: use manual pump and not automatic to get best accurate psi measurement.
