I bought one, and the on/off switch was defective. Once I turned it on, it never went off. It did a good job of inflating the tires, too bad I won’t be keeping it. I will have to get my $40 back from China.

I already have a compact battery jump starter so I don't need another device to charge.
Last year I found this on the one on the shelf in the hardware/automobile isle of my local grocery store: Victor Bell Automotive Bellaire 500 - TIRE INFLATOR ($25 at Amazon.) The pump is VERY compact and uses very little current and doesn't blow the 5AMP aux fuse. It takes a while but it works. I added a 12V outlet in the left saddle bag connected to the AUX posts in the fuse panel. The 12VDC connection is long enough to easily reach the front tire.
Wow, I just looked this up on Canadian Amazon... $128 goddamn Loonies! Odd that I can ship from Amazon US for $38 plus $15 for shipping. What a rip off... good to compare once in awhile.
Sorry to add salt in the wound. My grocery store has them on the shelf for less than $15. I bought several and gave one away to a Harley rider with a slow leak, so he could make it home.
The dimensions on Amazon are misleading because it's smaller. 2" thick and maybe 5" by 6".
I would be concerned that when you finally need it, it's not charged
I share the concern with Cali261, I purchased one on Amazon, had an issue with sporadic turning on, contacted the seller, who did send me a new one in less than 24 hrs, wow that was super fast.
I'm impressed, and he told me to keep the other unit.
Here is his reply:
