Can anyone help!!!!

Looking forward to getting out in the Spring and trying to right some wrongs from last season.

Can anyone suggest a good 12v inflator to save us the embarassment of going cap in hand to the neighbours (who were very accomodating I might add) to borrow a decent one because the one we bought from screwfix overheated within 30 seconds!!!!

We do tend to use an electric hook up so should we get a 240v?

Thanks in advance

If your after a pump for air beds we bought one from argos last year for about £7, comes with different adaptors and we plug it into the car.  Works brilliantly!

I've used the Argos one (cost £7 or £8) now for 3 seasons camping and also for a small inflatable tender. No complaints yet...

I use one of these. They are quicker and quieter than the 12V jobs and you get a bit of exercise too.

bought this through ebay last year.

12v and 240v numerous fittings very pleased and quick inflation from such a small item.apparently it is all to do with the air volume and not the pressure ???

if the item drops out search for bamford trading on ebay shops

The little cigi-lighter pumps from Aldi are bout £5.00.

I have one, and they are brilliant. Not only do they pump up any number of airbeds without any trouble, last summer I used it to pump up my 10' x 8'  3 ring large paddling pool for the garden - Superb!

I have a Gelert 12v pump which cost £5 and no problems over the last 2 years.
