Question:

How quickly will it fill a tire? I expect I need to hold the hose to the valve while in operation.

The Bulldog Winch Portable Air Compressor # BDW41004 will fill a tire at 1.2 cubic feet per minute at its maximum. The tire size will make a big difference in how long it will take to inflate. The average tire will be around 3 to 3-1/2 cubic feet, so you are most likely looking at just under 3 minutes to fill a tire from empty to full.

The hose will screw right onto your valve stem so you will not need to hold the hose to the valve stem the entire time. This is a really nice feature. You also have the ability to set the desired air pressure and walk away. The unit will automatically shut off when set pressure is reached.
