I am using Mi Air Pump and I must say, one of the best investment I did. I don't need to rely on petrol station pumps anymore as they always faulty or not functioning properly.

I pump whenever I want like before going on long trip or when I see air is low from TPMS.

Check out my video, sorry for the amateurish video but it shows the product enough I hope.

That is an informative video. Thanks! I usually pump to that value too. May I ask what is the tyre size?

I put a high volume bicycle hand pump at boot, together with a few cacing to plug the hole.

It’s as reliable as it gets, maybe need 60-80 strokes to get from 15psi to 30+, while it’s indeed alot of work, but if it’s emergency, better then nothing.

Also, I dont worry about inflating from a complete flat, as in flat until rim touch floor flat. If your tyre reach that stage, you are either a completely shit driver to not notice tire pressure dropped below 20 (since i know not everyone have tpi) OR, your tyre suffer a blowout which means whatever eletric pump u got also no use la, just call the insurance free towing la

If tyre completely flat then you need a combination of tyre foam filler repair kit and electric pump. Just need to be careful if you are going to invest into these foam. Cause I read it will destroy your tyre in the long run. So you need to change the tyre after using those foams. However, there are some brands that claim will not damage your tyre and you can continue to use it like normal.
