Q Industries MV50 SuperFlow Hi-Volume Air Compressor

This is a fast compressor I use to inflate 4 tires on a Jeep GC and it takes no time to use. Hooks directly to the battery as it pulls too much amperage to go thru the lighter. I would recommend this to all.

I have owned a few air pumps in my life. Never an air compressor. I am so glad that the last pump broke down, because that made me get more information and I choose to buy the MV50 Superflow Air Compressor. I have recommended it to everybody in my family and I will continue doing so to all my friends. A very good product, I got a habit of checking my tires more often because it is so fast to put air in them. I even check the tires of the cars of other members of the family.

I have had the MV50 for two days. It works very good for tire inflation. It is compact and easy to store in the trunk. The only problem is with the air hose. They have a quick connect on the unit that is different than the standard compressors.Therefore you can't use other hoses or adaptors. The hose that comes with it is ok but the screw on adaptor on mine leaks. I have tried to push it in or pull it out as it says in the directions but it still leaks when filling a tire.

This unit arrive dead. I sent it to Q Industries some months ago for repair or replacement. I was informed 24 days ago that they were sending another.
It's yet to arrive, I feel I will never see it. Email communications with Tech Support is fast but action taken by the company is as poor as it gets.
I have no idea how well this unit works when operational but at this point I wish I'd never heard of it. You will notice I rated this item one star, however this is more a rating of the company who supports it than the item.

this product has only 2 shortcomings - the hose is too short and you cannot plug it into the lighter because it is too powerful for the fuse in your car that is connected to the lighter adapter.

but it is amazing. one reviewer said that it is as fast as the pump at your station - nonsense! it is about five times faster at least! i had 25 psi in my tire and i wanted to bring it up to 30 so i turned it on, let it run for maybe 30 seconds, measured and it was already 40 psi!

the bag is also not too small, its just the right size - fits just fine.

the short hose is a serious problem and i will extend the cable on my unit with a bit of soldering and 1 dollar worth of lamp wire.

if you don't know how to solder you will need to seriously think how you will make this unit reach to the farthest tire ...

however for the money the quality of the compressor itself is amazing. it is at least 10 times faster than the plastic unit i had before and at least twice as quiet. for the money, even with the short hose i have simply no choice but to give it 5 stars. if the hose was the right length it would deserve six stars.
