Review: Update- One of my better purchases! - Unfortunately, I seem to have the worst luck with tires and have at least one that goes flat weekly. I am sure this is due to the crappy city streets I have been forced to take to and from work daily for the past 7 years warping my wheels and preventing the tires from making a proper seal. As I cannot afford a new car or new wheels, airing up my tires every few days has become somewhat of a ritual. I was getting sick of having to drive to the nearest QT for their free pump and was sometimes damaging my low tires even more trying to do so. Finally, I researched several different compressors before landing on this one for both the great reviews and price...and I am so glad that I did! This thing is a lifesaver and has been put to great use! I've used it countless times with no problems whatsoever. I love that the connector screw on, allowing me to sit in my car while it does its thing and saving my poor fingers from frostbite in these colder months. Also, I was expecting this to take much longer than the industrial sized compressors found at most gas stations, but that has not been the case at all. This little beauty works quickly and relatively quietly (comparatively). I am also very fond of the pressure gauge which allows better precision without constant stopping to check the pressure. I often double check the reading against a standard tire gauge and it is right on the money each time! My ONLY qualm is the cigarette adapter, which is not quite as sturdy feeling as I would have expected. Regardless of this, I have had no issues with it and simply make sure that I only grab it at the finger grips and gently remove it when I am finished. As long as you aren't manhandling it, I don't foresee there being any issues with it breaking. I am very pleased with the quality and durability of this product. Should anything change, I will be sure to update my review so that all buyers can make an informed decision. UPDATE: Still going strong despite being used several times a month! This thing has been a lifesaver and I am so damn grateful to have purchased it when I did. Review: This thing doesn't mess around - I've used a variety of 12 volt compressors over the years, and the majority of them were close to useless. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about - your stereotypical roadside compressor that makes a ton of noise, yet inflates a tire very, very, very slowly. I spend most of my weekends in the country in south-central Texas, and as a result, end up with my fair share of slow leaks in tires due to mesquite thorns. Having spent an hour waiting for other 12 volt compressors to inflate a tire, I finally resorted to carrying an air tank with me that I could fill at home with my full-sized compressor. That was bulky and limited you to one tire's worth of air, if the tire had gone totally flat. So I decided to do some more research on electric compressors. Enter the Viair 00073. This thing is a beast, and blows away (no pun intended) any other 12 volt compressor I've ever used. The directions state you need at least a 15 amp outlet to run this thing, and given its power, that isn't hard to believe. That said, I've had no problems running the 00073 off my truck and ATV's outlets (though I've no idea what either are technically rated for). I generally keep the vehicle the compressor is plugged into running while this thing is powered on to keep the battery from taking such a hit. Performance wise, the Viair 00073 is very good. I've not done any scientific tests on it, but it inflates tires in a fraction of the time it would take other 12v compressors. It is also much quieter than your typical 12v compressor. As for reliability, I've owned this the Viair for over a year, and with regular usage, I've had no problems to-date. The built-in pressure gauge is a decent way to monitor progress when inflating a vehicle tire, but not as useful when inflating low pressure tires like an ATV or lawn tractor tire. Regardless, I'd suggest keeping a separate pressure gauge on hand to ensure proper inflation has been achieved. The supplied storage bag is nice, and is actually big enough to accommodate the compressor and its accessories without having to resort to a Tetris-style exact method of packing things in just the right manner. I'd have no reservations recommending the Viair to anyone looking for a 12 volt compressor that gets with the program. ## Features - 12 VOLT - 100 PSI Maximum Working Pressure, engine must be running during use. - 1.06CFM Free Flow @ 0 PSI - Deluxe carry bag included - Brass twist-on tire chuck - Turn unit on to inflate, off to check pressure pressure using onboard gauge ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0012WHBSO | | Additional Features | Heavy Duty, Portable | | Air Flow Capacity | 1.06 Cubic Feet Per Minute | | Brand Name | Viair | | Capacity | 1.06 Cubic Feet | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (3,276) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00818114007033 | | Hose Length | 4 Feet | | Included Components | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 6.5"L x 3.6"W x 6.2"H | | Item Type Name | 70P Heavy Duty Portable Compressor | | Item Weight | 5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Viair | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | One year Manufacturer Defect | | Maximum Current | 15 Amps | | Maximum Power | 180 Watts | | Model Name | 70P | | Model Number | 00073 | | Motor Horsepower | 0.247 horsepower | | Noise | 74 Decibels | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Recommended Uses For Product | Tire Inflation | | Style | Portable | | UPC | 753970839308 753970865352 785422307851 818114007033 753970864140 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Viair - **Noise Level:** 74 Decibels - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Tire Inflation - **Voltage:** 12 Volts (DC) ## Images ![Viair 00073 70P Heavy Duty Portable Compressor - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EzkvLGe9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Update- One of my better purchases! *by L***R on January 21, 2016* Unfortunately, I seem to have the worst luck with tires and have at least one that goes flat weekly.

Started the Viair pump by inserting the power port in the cigarette lighter socket and noticed that it is silent than other pumps which I tested earlier, it fills small inflatable items such as football within 15-20 seconds. It is quite powerful and the build is quite sturdy. The power cord is long enough to reach all 4 tyres of the car. A must device to have if you are planning to go on long trips The only big which is a great drawback for this sturdy pump is that the scale which shows the pressure reading is incorrect. It reads ~50-52 psi for the actual tyre pressure of 30-32 psi. If one follows the scale on the device the actual tyre pressure would be off by 20 PSI which would rather damage the tyres and get poor fuel economy. @Viair why dont you get the entire device quality tested including the scale? --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/904030-viair-00073-70p-heavy-duty-portable-compressor](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/904030-viair-00073-70p-heavy-duty-portable-compressor) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-12*
