Works Anywhere Under Pressure
Black & Decker ASI500 High-Performance Cordless Inflator is an air station that offers incredible convenience. Featuring long-lasting cordless power, this inflator will give you the versatility you need, when and where you need it, whether you're at home or on the road.The ASI500 inflator can be operated from you vehicle's 12-volt DC power outlet, or it can be powered by its own internal 12-volt battery for cordless convenience. Be sure to charge the inflator from a wall/120-volt AC outlet for four to five hours, and it will be ready to handle a variety of common objects. Two Inflation Settings for Any Job
Featuring two pressure settings, the ASI500 can handle just about anything you throw at it. The low-pressure setting is ideal for rafts or mattresses, and the high-pressure setting is perfect for bike and car tires. In fact, when with the high-pressure setting, you can inflate a completely flat full-sized tire on just a single charge. Built-In Gauge with Auto Shut-Off for Accuracy
To ensure optimum accuracy, an auto shut-off feature allows you to get within +/- 1 PSI of your required inflation pressure. To avoid over/under inflation or blowouts, just set your desired PSI on the ASI500's digital gauge and then inflate--the air station will shut off at your preset PSI. You can also periodically check your item's pressure via the gauge, which is backlit for easy reading. Easy to Transport and Store
With a small profile and weighing just 5.2 pounds, the ASI500 is portable and easy to store. Take it with you to your child's soccer game, the beach, or on camping trips, and store it in your trunk or garage between uses.

 Black & Decker Air Station ASI500 12-Volt July 27, 2010

This machine is much to difficult to figure out for a program with children where you need to blow up balloons, play equipment etc.
Black & Decker Cordless Air Station April 18, 2010
Mark (Florida)
This product is exactly what I was looking for. It is small, multi-tasking, and easy to use. I primarily use it to check the air pressure of the tires and keep them properly inflated. I first check the existing tire pressure, dial up what pressure I want and fill 'er up! That's it! I would highly recommend it for monitoring tire pressures and keeping the tires properly inflated. Sorry I cannot comment on the other uses for it since I have not used it for those purposes yet.
Perfect for car tires. April 17, 2010
Mary Santos (Houston, Texas)
I have to say, this has come in very handy for inflating car tires. I have one that tends to leak, but nobody has been able to find anything wrong with it, so I wind up filling it up about once a month. It's so nice to be able to use my very own inflator at home, no coins required ;)
We've also been using ours for inflating bicycle tires and some of our heavy-duty pool inflatables. Operation of this is not 100 percent intuitive and if you don't use it often, you may forget how to perform all of the operations, so maintaining possession of the instruction manual is critical. I would recommend storing them together.
All-in-all, I'm very pleased with this inflator and although we aren't campers, I'm positive that campers would absolutely love having one of these.
 Just set the pressure and go! April 7, 2010
Lynn (Pittsburgh, PA)
Great for a powderpuff mechanic, especially the capability of setting the pressure you want to achieve. It stops when the pressure setting is met and eliminates using a tire pressure gauge, which is a real asset.
Reading the manual is required March 30, 2010
Phil (Boston, MA)
Read the manual first which is a must. Afterwards, it's pretty easy to use. I tested the unit on my road bicycle w/ Presta valves. Obviously the Air Station isn't compatible with Presta valves (I have a Schrader valve adapter handy. You can get one at your local bike shop for about $3.)
I set the Air Station to 100 PSI (the max psi on my bike is 125)and pressed the LCD power button. The manual mentions the Air Station "walking" by itself, but that didn't happen to mine. Although loud, it did the job well. I noticed during usage, the battery meter instantly went to one bar. I fully charged it for 5 hours prior to using so not sure what's up with that.
Apparently, some reviewers are having trouble removing the air valve after use. TIP: Wiggle it off clockwise while gently pulling away or don't stick it in all the way. Worked for me :)
Pro's:
- Filled my bike tires in less than 5 minutes.
- Very portable
- Easy to use (at least for me)
Con's:
- Price(Expensive for what it does)
- Loud
- Battery life
- Air hose is short
- not enough accessory slots ( I use hand pump for basketballs so had to take that out)
- A built-in flashlight w/ a separate switch would have been nice
