They are really intended for cars up to a pressure of 30psi they would struggle to get anywhere near a motorhome pressure. The internal pump piston is very small and easily overheats redering them scrap.

I use a small compressor with a tank which goes up to 120 psi and that isnt quick getting it up to the 70 psi recommended. Aldi have had them in store for approx £80 with a hose and pressure gauge.

i paid £30 second hand for one. I use a small 12volt while away for the trailer tyres and motorcycle and it just does those eventually.

  Tried footpumps,  useless,  tried 12v compressors, worse than useless.  airlines at most garages don't even go near to the pressure.   Haven't tried the compressors with a reciever but that seems to me to be over egging it a bit.

listen to Tentz  get a track pump     cheap, reliable, small enough to take with you and make the pressure easily.

would'nt use anything else  had one for years

As stated normal cheap pumps cant really get past 45psi

I purchased the Ring Automotive pump and its just great, fast powerful and compact

Anything from Halfords will suffice!

That is unless you are trying to reach 70 or 80PSI. Most MHs should be at about 50 to 60ish!

Tried a few types ( cheap as always ) but as I'm running at 75 psi nothing really worked. ( tyre pressure not blood pressure ) Bought a RAC Ring 900 and it certainly does the job but a bit pricey
