If there's one thing I've learned about adulthood it's that it's always best to be prepared—whether by having a spare tire in your trunk or a shovel for snowy winter sidewalks. But having a lesser-thought-of tire inflator in case of emergencies can make the difference between a minor inconvenience and being stuck in the cold for hours. With the holiday season and the winter weather approaching, there's no better time to ready your "just in case" gear kit with one of these handy devices.
Amazon is currently selling the Hoto Portable Cordless Tire Inflator for only $100 thanks to a special on-page coupon for an additional $30 off. This brings the total discount up to 41% off its list price of $170. The small size and less than 5-pound weight make it easy to take with you on the go, and shoppers say that it's a "great pump for the price" that can "pump four tires with no problem" and more.
Don't let the "tire inflator" title fool you, this "hefty all-in-one air pump" is super versatile. Whether you need an air pump to stash in your pool house, to bring with you in case of car emergencies, or to make inflating an air mattress that much faster, this compact device does it all. It can efficiently achieve a wide range of pressures, has a fast-acting advanced motor for quick inflating or deflating, and comes with multiple valves for varying pumping needs. Plus, the pump can be powered by both its built-in lithium batteries (once charged) and car connector in case of emergencies.
"I bought this pump to inflate kayaks," one reviewer commented. "I love that you can adjust the pressure and that it’s portable. It has come in very handy to inflate and deflate all sorts of stuff. I’m buying one for each of my children. Makes a great gift."

"Whether it’s the basketball, bicycle, car, or even the pool, this is the air pump you need," another reviewer said. "It’s made very well and feels durable. All the attachments are included and the storage bag makes this easy to carry around in the car or when traveling...Looks high-end and very high quality."
Although normally a premium option, the Hoto Portable Cordless Tire Inflator screams "bang for your buck." The high-quality material, low weight, and multiple functions make it a great tool for your home or on the go. Pick yours up soon before the price inevitably reinflates.
