I just purchased one of these from Costco so this is good timing to see the review.

The charging cable is the same as the one used by Nautilus unit sold at Cdn. Tire. Make sure you charge the battery for 40 hours prior to first use.

I bought mine at Costco as well before Christmas and opened the box last night, noticed the charting cable was missing, went and returned it and got another one to find out is missing the charging cable as well. so disappointed because I need to wait till Monday to call the company, wanted to be ready for the freeze!

Interested to see how it holds up over time.

Thank you for the video . I got this thing and seems to be alright .I charged this for 20 hours for the first use as it recommended and I used the gadget . However, I am trying to recharge it but the the display charger bar only gets to two instead of four even after several hours! Meaning it doesn’t get fully charged! Maybe the battery issue ! I wish there was an indicator saying if the battery is fully charged or not !

It took a long time for it to go form two to four bars but if it’s still not charged take it back to Costco they have the best return policy out there and get a new one

Hi Tim, great video and thanks for sharing. Question: do you think the air compressor could be used to inflate kayak or paddle?

@TOOLMANTIMSWORKSHOP

Жыл бұрын

I am not 100% sure how a kayak inflates but I’m guessing it requires high flow instead of high pressure and for that you would need soemthing like a Dewalt inflator that does both

Well, I bought one coz it's $40.00 off at a costco near me. Charged it for 20 hours and then tried the compressor feature on my winter tires. When I was working my 4th tire, the LCD screen stopped working 😆. And it was only -2 Celsius outside. Gonna return this baby then grab a replacement and give it another go.

I would definitely say return it try another one but you’re about the third person. I’ve heard that had some sort of electronic issue with the compressor so I hope this doesn’t become a huge issue.

Did you charge it for 20hrs or you stop when it reached 4bars?

great intro Tim! got one myself today, do you know how big the battery bank capacity in this unit? like other one in the costco is 8000 mAh, does this Cat one has bigger power bank?

@TOOLMANTIMSWORKSHOP

I just posted a follow up vidoe today where I tore it apart it’s a 9ah battery which means the battery bank is 9000 mah
