Black & Decker ASI300 compressor 11 bar / 160 psi (Automotive)

Customer Review

Who operates the compressor at cigarette of his car and - as described in the manual - not let the engine run, has a good chance then to have starting problems.

He needs a lot of time, the small compressor - for each individual wheel.
In the present case it was only the pressure increase from 2.2 to 2.3 bar.
Contrary to the information in the user moves the struggling compressor in the operating condition - at 230V power to a 25m cable drum - not.

The hose connected to the terminal is no longer, as in the visible at the time this review image of the device.
Once unpacked, some difficulties, 230V connection and hose under the little flap on the rear top of the unit to give stowed so that the door to go back.
How often do the high-pressure hose may endure this procedure remains to be seen.
Built predetermined breaking point, which promotes the sales?
From end users hand the high-pressure hose is at least not to change.

Why 2.4 and 2.5 bar when the tires are only 2.3 bar at medium load?

The locked port on the tire valve can be unlocked, but not quickly remove it from the valve.
During the time until the connection is down again, leaking air - not too tight.
Gladly from 2.5 to 2.15 bar or more.
After some wheels you figure out how the connection has to be removed in order to escape the least air. Approximately 1 bar, he always loses.
Therefore, first of all fill 1 bar, so that the decrease in connection with entering, spontaneous loss of pressure equalizes in the final result. Overall, note the maximum pressure of the tires being used.

Why can not - at the price - not an attachment to be used with shutter as in the stationary gas station equipment, in which the release of the lock together pull the cap easily and without pressure loss proceeds? Then at least twice as many star rating would be possible.

Approved to the pressure gauge is not, therefore only an approximate reference value.

After a look at the manual was very quickly becomes clear how the unit of PSI (default setting) will be converted to cash and the threshold is set, at which air pressure shuts down the heater.

Each - even very short - disconnection from the power supply sets the device back to its factory settings.

All settings must therefore be made every time new.
This shortcoming could be solved inexpensive and elegant with a tiny electronics.

In summer you would have to inflate the device no boat for recreational use - because of it correspondingly low pressure is the sun off until all the air chambers are filled to the brim.
Probably the ASI300 would with this volume, because of the maximum operating time, after half an hour break must be inserted, even overwhelmed completely.

Disappointing that all other devices of the same size, design and performance even worse get away in the reviews as this one. It would not buy again.

It features 12V / 230V connection, switches off when reaching the set value and moves the operation does not, however, is far too expensive.
There are spacious two points.

Addendum:
Long live the comparison.
Not long after buying the ASI300 had a discounter a portable compressor with accessories for "little money" in briefcase size on offer.
Only with mains connection, no additional 12V.
He makes a lot more racket than the ASI300, appears for short time operation ad hoc performance.
He brings to the usual petrol stations Car valve locking connection.
This was crucial for the purchase as a "second compressor".
A very long air hose - with quick coupling - is available as well as a very long power supply.
The standardized quick coupling to other devices can be connected.
One must look at the pressure gauge in the pistol grip, until the pressure has been reached, it is desired to have in Tyre. This system is simply connected to the quick coupling. At its analog zeigerzittriges display behavior must be getting used to.
Papers for bicycle valves, footballs and all variants possible for air mattresses and inflatable boats of all types was included, as a metal blow-off valve, which not can be mounted without tools.
Consequently, it is the compressor for the garage with power supply. The ASI300 ekes out its existence in the trunk. For all cases without 230V connectivity.
Of course, the Druckmeßanzeige is neither calibrated from discounters compressor how the ASI300.

Conclusion:
Those looking for a compressor for the garage with power supply, is 182 better off with the considerably cheaper workzone WZK from discounters, as with the ASI300.
Bring B & D a "ASI350" as a successor model to the market which has the previously indicated, other terminal valve, a larger cable hose storage space and storage space for several presets with the direct dialing, would this fictional "ASI350" be the first across the finish line. Presumably, not only in the compared devices from here.
