5.0 out of 5 stars Best portable air compressor I've seen, June 21, 2008

TyphoonMax x500 12V Compressor
This is the real deal. Any other portable (12 volt) air compressor I've ever used over the years, and I always carry one in every car, is a toy by comparison. Fast, quiet, convenient to use and then pack, emergency light built in, excellent large tire gauge, easy to use screw-on tire chuck. This is an industrial strength item. Now I'm going to have to replace the four other 'toy' compressors I've gotten for my family's cars.

1.0 out of 5 stars JUNK!!!, June 19, 2009

By 

Dick S. "Dick" (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Interdynamics TX-500 TyphoonMax 12-Volt High Speed Air Compressor (Automotive)

Air Compressor was defective out of the box. Could NOT extract 12 volt power cord from its retractable housing. After speaking to Amazon representative, I used as much force as I thought prudent to extract the cord and the insulation started shredding off the power cord. Also, the tire pressure guage is independent of the unit. It is simply a manual tire pressure guage that you twist out of its compartment and then press on your tire's valve stem just like any other manual tire guage. This compressor is a major disappointment.

This item caught fire and became completely useless the first time I needed it. Steer clear of this over priced piece of garbage.
