- I show you the DIY Indeflate that I made to work with myl my XTM Air Compressor from BCF that tI installed into my 200 Series Toyota Landcruiser.

thank you for sharing, good job. i don't do 4x4 driving but i enjoyed your plumbing setup. you did a professional job
Osram has a battery powered small de-/ in-flator w/digital display and upto 4 presets memory w/autostop 7x7x17 cm, 640g
Good video mate. I still use one of the ARB quick deflator gadgets.
Just a bit of a warning regarding the use of the type of unit you have cobbled together if I may.
It is pretty much essential that you are located on level, flat (ie not on a rock) ground.
If you are on uneven ground or have one tyre sitting on a large rock etc, the pressures won't actually equalise.
The tyre on the lower side will have more weight resting on it and you will end up with non equal pressures when you drive off.
So that would be the same issue with the mainstream brands of those too? I’ll have to do a test and see. I would have thought they’d equalise either way but now you’ve got me thinking. Would be an interesting experiment to see if it varies and how much if it does.
@@JebbreysJibberish a good experiment you could perform in your flat driveway would be to drive one tyre, say front right, up onto a hammer handle or similar 2" x 2" piece of timber.
Now add your two fittings to the right and left tyres to allow them to equalise. Then, drive the vehicle off the timber and check the pressures. I'd guess they'd be marginally different.
For a more extreme experiment.....jack one tyre completely off the ground and repeat the exercise. The difference between the two tyres will be significant once they are both back on the ground.
Apex quick deflators are the fastest for deflation hands down. They are expensive but they are the fastest and easiest way to deflate a tire.
While not cheap, an ARB Twin compressor with pressure control and indeflate you don't need anything else. Pressures preset on phone no need to be checking pressure constantly.
but far from bang for buck which this is.
Should you have a little tap on each hose as well so that when you are disconnecting, you can close each tap off so you don't lose pressure from one tyre while you move from tyre to tyre when you take the hoses off the tyre valves.? You'll have one tyre at 50psi and the other at 48psi by the time it takes you to fully disconnect.
If I disconnect the other way around it actually works better. Because the Nitto fitting is blocked, so I just have to disconnect the nitto end first.
Hi Jeff, Is you friends compressor hard wired or using alligator clips ? That may be where the inefficiency is.
Alligator clips, but then my compressor is mounted in the back so even with heavy duty wiring mines probably suffering more voltage drop.
I got the Maxtrax indeflate for $172 on sale great product
Kings now sell a indeflate for $60
Yeah I just saw that. I haven’t seen one up close. I wonder how it compares to mine and the more expensive ones.
