Today we're going to take a look at a Bulldog Wenches portable air compressor. Now this is a heavy duty 150 PSI air compressor. It's going to allow you to air up your tires or anything else you might need on the go. We have this 16 and a half foot, coiled up hose, so you're gonna be able to reach all four tires if need be; if you're in an emergency situation, and you need to get all four tires aired up. That, along with our 10 foot power cable. How it gets its power is that we have these two clamps.
We have one for the positive, one for the negative side of our car battery, so we can hook it up to there to draw our power.That's also gonna be convenient for emergency situations, where you might be in the middle of nowhere, and all the power you have is from your battery. We're also gonna have this tire pressure gage on our hose. It's gonna measure our PSI for us, to make sure we get the correct tire pressure reading.Now, the air compressor is also gonna work with all of your bike tires, whether you have a mountain bike like this, or even a motorcycle. It's also gonna work for those as well. Now, the compressor is also gonna come with three different attachments for various inflation needs that you might have, including a needle, so you can air up your sports equipment.When you're done with whatever you need to inflate, you can pack it up in a convenient carrying bag to make for easy storage.
Now, let's go ahead and hook it up, and show you how it works. Now, we've got our hood open, so we'll go ahead and take off the cap of our positive side of the battery . set that to the side. We're gonna go negative first. So, we're gonna hook it up to this side, our ground.
And we'll go right here on our positive side.We can go ahead and connect our air hose to our valve stem. How it's gonna work is we're gonna push down on the valve stem. There's actually gonna be threads on the inside of this attachment. We're just gonna spin it on and you are gonna hear air leak out a bit at first, but you just keep tightening it until you don't hear the air coming out anymore. And then, it's gonna hold a constant pressure.
So, we'll begin tightening it, and then you'll hear the air, you just keep going. Now it's fully on. With our tire pressure gage, we're gonna have a constant reading, even when the compressor is not turned on. As long as that is tightened down on the valve stem, we're gonna have a constant reading.We can se we're a little bit low on air, so we're gonna come down to the air compressor, there's going to be an on, off switch on this back side . right there. So, we'll go ahead and flip it on and we'll begin airing it up. So now we're gonna see how that dial slowly goes up. We're gonna get it to the correct reading that the manufacturer of this truck wants us to have the tire pressure at.Now, what's also nice is that while our air compressor is running like that, the bottom side of our tray is gonna have these nice, rubber knobs where the platform is sitting on, and it's basically gonna absorb a lot of the vibration that you might experience with an air compressor. You kind of see that it will stay put. We're gonna turn it back on. It's absorbing that impact right there, and it's not gonna move around at all while we're airing up our tire or anything else.Now, we have the correct PSI on our tires, so we're gonna go ahead and remove it. Then, we can repeat this process for the other tires. Now with all that being said, that's gonna do it for a look at a Bulldog Wench portable air compressor.

Used 4 times last year worked great, this year the screw on valve went bad, I replaced with a regular air chuck, pump runs but produces very little pressure. Doesnt seem to last very long.

This has been a lifesaver on several occasions when I’ve needed to air a tire on the fly. Just hook up to the batteries and add air. Well worth buying if you travel.

The Bulldog Winch Portable Air Compressor Part # BDW41004 is designed to run in 10 minute cycles, going over this time will cause the unit and plug to get out. The Bulldog Winch Light Duty On-Board Air Kit w Compressor & 1 Gallon Tank - 130 psi Part # BDW96TJ might be more conducive to your needs because it has a higher PSI capacity.

I reached out to the manufacturer and he is concerned about how small this compressor is compared to your large tires and the amount of tires you are trying to air up at once. He says this product claims to air up 31 inch tires, at 14 amps and 1.2 CFM during a 10 min duty cycle. Your truck tires are 31.7 inches per your vehicle in your account, and the pressure you tried to achieve with this compressor would have taken longer than the 10 min duty cycle. Once the compressor goes beyond 10 mins, it heats up and that is when the fuses would probably blow. He recommends a large compressor for the job that you are trying to do.
