Afternoon all

I went away at the weekend and pumped my airbeds up with my usual battery pump, which I was quite happy with. That is until the couple we were camping with came along with their super strong airbed pump which pumped their beds up in about a minute rather than the 10/15 it takes me. I think theirs was a campingaz pump but i forgot to ask where she got it from. Can anyone recommend a good powerful pump please? We don't usually use EHU on site and the cigarette lighter in my car doesn't so it would have to be a battery one or a rechargeable one i can charge before i go.

Many thanks for your help

I have just placed an order for this one from Awnings direct.  It is rechargable works of elec and car lighter.  At £19.99 .  Only cos I wanted an airbed pump and also wanted another windbreak (Windbreak 6 pole (3.71m long) (£5.50)) but also bought Sunncamp Uno Stove Our Price: £6.75
 
thought I might as well get from same supplier to save on postage.

Would have been cheaper to go away!!!

I can highly recommend the Campingaz Quickpump. It's fully rechargeable by mains or 12v and lasts about half an hour once charged. It only takes a few muntes to fully inflate my Coleman double mattress. Has a range of nozzles but is compatible with the Coleman/Campingaz range of beds with the airtight lock system. I aso bought the pump vac accessory which turns the pump into a vacuum cleaner and is handy for hoovering the tent pods and the car after a long journey with crumbs and sweets in the back or sand after going to the beach!

Think I paid £30 for the pump and £10 for the vacuum cleaner attachment.

10/15 mins is along time tbh.

I have a £7.99 eurohike 12v ciggy lighter powered pump from millets and it blows double airbeds up really quickly,not timed it but a couple of minutes max.

They do a eurohike battery one for £7.99 as well.

Hi 

What is the web address of awnings direct?

Thanks

Tesco 7.47 for mains and car ciggy adaptor.  We have a mains/12v power pack (from woolies with eleccy blanket) so dont run from the car but have tested and works OK.  Pumps up airbed in a couple of minutes and the kids 12ft x 6ft swimming pool in less than 10.
