TACKLIFE M1 Tire Inflator
Cold Winter Air Pressure
Flat tires are no fun for anyone. Even for the initiated, for those among us who can change a tire with ease, flat tires are an annoyance. For the rest of us, flat tires can fill us with dread and the very thought of them is something we normally need to push to the back of our mind or else risk not wanting to drive our cars at all.

But what is the anatomy of a flat tire? Why do they occur in the first place? Answering this question is the best way to understand how to deal with them.
Sometimes tires go flat because of damage. You hit something on the road, run over a nail, or your tire is too worn and begins to come undone. In these cases, you need to repair or replace your tire.
But in other cases, it is simply because the weather is so cold that the air has contracted. If you live in a very cold area, then you have probably noticed this during the winter — your tires seem lower in air than in the warmer months.
In these cases, the tire is not usually completely flat, but the car may still be undrivable. You may still need to address the problem so that you can get to where you are going.
Fortunately, addressing this problem is as simple as putting air in your tires. Unfortunately, however, you may not be able to drive to the gas station to do so (if your tire is too low). In these cases, it is very useful to have a portable air compressor on hand.
A portable air compressor will allow you to easily and quickly fill your low tire and be on your way. These units or cost effective, lightweight, easy to use, and consumer friendly. They are designed for just this thing and with just this purpose in mind.
When your car tire low because of the cold weather, you may find yourself in need of an air compressor. So why not plan ahead and pick one up now — it will save you time and energy later.
This article is a review of one such air compressor — The Tacklife digital tire inflator. This air compressor is quite small and quite easy to use, and it is designed for one thing — filling up a flat tire.
It will not work for very large tires on industrial vehicles and large trucks, but it will be just fine for your commuter vehicle. In the end, the point here is to give you peace of mind and to make it that much easier to get yourself where you are going — to work on a cold winter morning, to the gym before the sunrise, etc.
For those things, this piece of equipment is ideal, and you will find that it is well worth the small investment to know that you can refill your tire anywhere you need to, whether it is at home or on the road.
