Stopped Working April 17, 2010 guitar man This thing stopped working after 6 minor inflations. I had read others had this problem, but I decided to roll the dice. Black & Decker and other companies in the USA should stop putting their name on Chinese junk.
I took it apart to see if there was a fuse inside that may have blown. No such luck. Removing the bottom panel reveals two electric motors, an ac/dc transformer, and a small circuit board. My guess is that a transistor or something on that board is what seems to fail for many people. I would not buy it again if given the choice.
so far so good April 15, 2010 D. Jones (Macomb Co., MI) The only problem I've encountered so far (after 1 month of use)is difficulty in removing the fill connection from the tire's valve stem. I bought it to use to keep my car and lawn mower tires properly inflated. Too bad the hose doesn't have a removable fitting to allow other types of fill valves/connections to be used.
Not perfect; but can't live without it April 15, 2010 Maverick (Chicago, IL USA) I bought the ASI300 in March 2007 and it lasted until April 2010. I think I blew a fuse by trying to inflate a football. From what I can tell, I'd have to send it to the factory to get it fixed. I've looked and I can't find anything better, I think I'll buy a new ASI300 rather than send it to the factory. Here's what's good about the ASI300: You can set the pump to stop pummping at a pre-set air pressure. That's a very nice feature; it's also run by AC power and can be run off DC power. What I don't like about the pump: How do I say it, the pressure dial is not laid out well. The pressure dial goes to 200 PSI, but the increments on the dial leave so little space between say the 30 and 40 PSI marks that to inflate a tire to 36 PSI, you'd have to estimate where to put the stop dial; in my opinion, its a waste of dial space to have it go to 200 PSI when the danger zone is from 160 to 200; that's 20% of the dial space used up for the danger zone! Another problem I think is the very awakward location on the rear end of the pump for the on/off switch; it's not easy to see as it's recessed into the body of the pump and if you want to see it you'd have to pick up the pump and given the very short hose it can be awakward just to turn it on. Meanwhile all the tire caps you have in the little storage compartment fall out onto the cement. What a hassle. Another hassle is that the pump turns off automatically and then you still have to find that switch in the back and turn it off before you go to the next tire and turn it on again. Not a problem except that the on/off switch is so awakwardly situated. Nevertheless, I think it's a useful tool to have and I'll get it again, but who designs these things anyway?
hotair April 14, 2010 Richard D. Keller (Hamilton, OH, US) The air station is much slower than the old model. The power cord and the air hose are way to short which requires the use of an extention cord and placement of the air station right next to the tire. Not recommended.
TIRE PUMP April 12, 2010 Gordon V. Monday (Orlando) Easy to use, relatively fast inflation time, and two sources of power is very convenient.
