I'll probably Google my own answer but... got a Decathlon air tent on order. Are the pumps for these things pretty universal, eg if I bought a Gooutdoors airpump meant for an air tent, would it work?

Plus - do they fit things like air beds as well, as a wee bonus?

EDIT - I see quite a few with adaptors which seems to answer my own question. Any confirmation from people who have used them would be great though. TIA!

Sorry if it's asking the obvious :-)

The pumps come with adaptors but you need to make sure there is one suitable for your tent eg the pump I previously used didn't have a suitable adaptor for Berghaus tents.

They could be used for air beds but again you'd need the correct adaptor.

It's handy to get one with a pressure gauge if using for tents.

Thank you - that sort of settles it. Cheers!
