car power – This is the most common power supply , given that most inflatable SUPs and kayaks are inflated at lakes, rivers, beaches, and other locations where your car battery is the only easily accessible source of electricity. Every Outdoormaster pump has a 1-year warranty. If anything goes wrong (which I doubt), you are covered for a year. The Advanced Elements Double Action Pump is truly a game-changer when it comes to manually inflating your kayak. As a double-action pump, it inflates your kayak on both up and down strokes, which means you save time and effort getting out onto the water. To use the pump, you simply set the dial which is around the pressure gauge to the PSI you want, press the on button and away it goes. The pump has the auto shut-off feature once it reaches your pre-set PSI. The GE 20-2 also has an overheating auto shut-off, which should help preserve the life of the product. Stage 2: High Pressure – In this stage, the kayak/SUP is “full” of air, which means the pump has to start forcing more and more air into that confined space. The amount of internal pressure (PSI) increases, albeit slowly, because the amount of power required to fill the compressed air into the space is higher than the amount required to fill an “empty” space. Thus, it reaches the higher PSIs far more slowly.

And a longer hose (4+ feet) makes it easier to connect your pump without having to place the SUP or kayak directly on the hot asphalt next to your car. Warranty

WORKS WITH MOST ISUP BRANDS

The provided AC adapter has an output of 1 amper, so it takes a few hours to fully charge the pump. When you plug the pump into an electrical outlet, the LED lights on the pump turn bright blue. After the pump is charged, they turn white. The Scoprega Bravo GE 20-2 comes with a ton of accessories. The battery can be charged and used with your car’s cigarette lighter plug, direct from the battery with alligator clips or plugged into the mains with an AC DC adaptor, which are all included.

The Texsport Double Action Hand Pump is an excellent choice if you’re looking for an affordable, reliable, and convenient air pump for your inflatable kayaks. What I Like If you’re going to inflate your SUP or kayak, make sure to do so using a pump that’s purpose-built for the task! A Buyer’s Guide to Electric Pumps for SUPs and Inflatable Kayaks: Factors to Consider Valve Compatibility The Shark II from OutdoorMaster is one of the most popular electric SUP pumps available in the UK. If you’re looking for a quality and dependable pump that can inflatable multiple boards without stopping, then you won’t go far wrong with the Shark II. This probably depends on the type of paddling you plan to do and the type of kayak you have. Many inflatable kayaks are self-bailing, especially kayaks that are designed for whitewater. On the positive side, less power also meant less noise. The Decathlon was one of the quietest on our test, standing 1m away from the pump the sound meter recorded 69.2db.

In-Depth Review of the Outdoor Master Whale Electric SUP Pump

As you can see in my detailed review of the Nixy pump, it can inflate 10+ SUPs in a row, it just keeps on going.

In the user manual Outdoor Master says it can run for 30 minutes max, then give the pump 10 minutes to cool down – So the pump will be able to do around 3 boards in one sitting. From a user point of view, this is the main reason why you’d spend more on the OutdoorMaster than the HIKS. Air compressors: Another type of pump to steer clear of is the traditional air compressor pump. While these pumps might be a go-to choice for other inflatables, they’re not the best choice for your kayak. Like tire pumps, they can easily overfill your inflatable kayak and potentially pop a chamber. Trust me; that’s not something you want to experience when you’re excited about hitting the water. This hand pump comes with a built-in pressure gauge and can deliver a maximum pressure of 10 PSI. It comes with fittings for stem, Halkey-Roberts, and Boston valves. Pros Outdoor Master always has an offer going on somewhere, so it’s worth shopping around to find a bargain. As with many pumps, you have a digital LCD display that makes it easy to preset your PSI and tells you the pressure that’s currently inside the board as it’s inflating. The pump is simple to use and you’ll have no problem figuring out how to turn it on and get it inflating. There is an auto shut-off with this pump too, so no stress about forgetting you left it on whilst getting changed.Take my word for it: this is a very important safety and convenience feature to look for in your electric pump. Image: The Off-Grid Yurt Family Cooling Requirements Once charged, the pump just keeps on going. I’ve pumped 3 SUPs in a row with it, and the LCD display still showed half charge. Specifically, here are 2 that I would recommend as alternatives if you don’t like something about the Outdoormaster Whale Pump. Alternative 1: Nixy Ventus pump
