Makita 18v cordless inflator

Not in any way will it replace a Viair. They do not list the flow rate (cfm) but it can only run for 5 minutes then rest 5.... which is VERY feeble performance. Good enough to top up a small bike tire, or maybe a car tire by a few psi. Not good enough to pump up a nearly flat Ollie or truck tire, for that you need at least 2 cfm, unless you are prepared to wait a long time. You certainly could not blow out any water lines, or remove dust.

If somebody can find the flow rate, please comment. I find it to be a little odd that it is not listed, even in the operating manual.....

If you want a pretty decent pump with a very high flow rate and not pay for a larger Viair, consider this one.
