Air Bed inflation with tyre pump Adapter? - Eeyore - 04-07-2016
Hi Guys,
I was about to buy a pump for my air bed... but i always carry a tyre inflator around. Does anyone know of an adapter i can use to pump up an air bed with it? I need a male tyre valve to male air bed size bit.

I forgot my pump last time and took off the turbo pipe off my xud and pumped it up that way worked well 😀

looks like you can do it with just the exhaust...

Thinking about it in a less comedy way. Would it not just kill you with exhaust gasses as it inevitably leaks out all night?

Can pick up my airbag pump (plugs inthe car) if you want on way past?

I used to use an electric tire pump until I over inflated my air bed and popped it. I used an old tire valved pushed in to the inlet.
It takes too long and is noisy.
Get a proper inflator, it's a lot faster.

Ive got a 12v airbed pump you can use but only if i can share said bed with you....

Theres 2 ways this is going to go Sam and only one of them in consensual. Your choice.

I'll bring an electric air bed pump
RE: Air Bed inflation with tyre pump Adapter? - Dum-Dum - 04-07-2016
You can get an adapter, I have one for my tyre pump but as I'll have my air bed pump with me would you like to borrow that?
RE: Air Bed inflation with tyre pump Adapter? - bigcheez2k3 - 04-07-2016
I may flutter my eyelashes at one of you on Saturday as I only have a footpump
Also, imagine using your exhaust to do it when you have an XUD
RE: Air Bed inflation with tyre pump Adapter? - Eeyore - 05-07-2016
looks like there are going to be loads there. Ill borrow one on the day. cheers lads.
RE: Air Bed inflation with tyre pump Adapter? - welshpug - 05-07-2016
tyre inflator pumps will get pretty hot trying to do an airbed as you need lots of frre air volume not pressure.
hence why turbochargers work quite well.

Don't you have a 3d printer anyway Sam?

Turbocharger FTW.
I remember doing mine with the GT2052V at FCS '11 I think... Never seen a bed inflate that fast!
