With so many accessories on the market these days, what is actually useful and what makes life more complicated?
When I got the opportunity to use the Morrflate quad tyre inflation & deflation system these were my thoughts exactly. So after 3 months of exclusively using this product as I travel Australia, I present my thoughts.

    Such a great job at breaking down the benefits and drawbacks! We are still on the hunt for that "perfect product" but great job helping outline those for everyone. You even got in a bunch of the little nuanced tricks for people... let the air out before coiling up, start coiling at the manifold, open flow vs closed flow, valve stem air flow limitations, etc. This may have become our new favorite video... don't think we could have done this good ourselves as an all inclusive product info video :)

    Thanks guys! Really appreciate the feedback here. It really has been a great product to test over the last few months and although I was genuinely a little sceptical, I am converted. It is extremely easy to use and provides benefits that far outweigh any considerations. Awesome work creating a product that can successfully complete with other similar products out there on the market at a very competitive price too. Looking forward to seeing what MorrFlate comes up with moving forward. Cheers, Nathan.

    Great Review Nathan. I have been using the same set up for about two years now and I rate it highly. I mainly bought it because we tow a tandem axle off-road caravan and our travels see us regularly/frequently airing down and up again and doing 8 tyres one at a time gets old quick. I do not use it for airing down, however as I find it quicker and easier to screw my DFL8's onto all four caravan tyres and then use my ARB deflator on the cruiser, The DFL8's have been so impressive that I am considering getting another 4 for the car. It'll be a bit slower, but easier and they have proven to be accurate and reliable. Airing up with the Moorflat is where it comes into its own IMO, and the quality is top notch. Mine has had a lot of use and its great. I do need to use an extension ot do the van Tyres but thsi still fits in the bag. I also have one valve on my van that for some reason is really difficult to get a seal on with the chuck. All in-all I really rate this product highly.

    Hopefully you realise just how helpful this video is to some people. I've got the arb inflation and deflation systems and the deflation is good, but the inflation.. man.. for the longest time that's been doing my head in. I've found that because it doesn't clip onto the tyre fully (unlike the morrflate), the weight of the hose hanging actually ruins the connection and air leaks out faster than the compressor can pump the tyre up, so I'm having to bend down and hold it just for it to do its job. If the mounting system on the morrflate will eliminate this problem, I think it's worth every cent. Thanks for putting this on my radar

    Nice video. I suggest you take a look at the ARB pressure control kit. I decided to build my own 4 way inflation kit and since it doesn’t have the gauge it’s a much more compact setup. I have front and rear presets which makes things very easy to manage. Personally I think it’s neater to managed the one coil of hoses vs the air up kit hose and the deflator and inflator.

Lets face it the only reason the deflate took longer is due to packup. i bet its quicker from start to finish of psi?

    It's similar, but probably a little more up to date. It's got the digital gauge with better accuracy, better valve chucks and most importantly, uses a high flow inflator connection. The in deflate uses a traditional stem valve and as I mentioned, this restricts flow to 2-3CFM, again, limiting the efficiency of the air compressor... and did I mentioned the MorrFlate was cheaper? 😆 Yes, you are right though, the pack up of all those hoses took some time, but It's all included in the testing 👍 The fact we don't have to spend 10 min down by the tyres is always a great advantage.

Totally agree with the MaxTrax Indeflate hose connectors not being very reliable. I had noted this from the very first time using mine from new which was a bit disappointing. I'd really be interested if the MORRFlate hose connectors (or at least that design) are available somewhere for retro fit to my Indeflate. Surely those connectors would be available somewhere. Apart from that, my single piston compressor (naturally) takes a bit longer to re-inflate two tyres at a time as opposed to one and as a result, also is of course quite a bit warmer than usual afterwards.

I recently decided to try the icheck deflators and they are next level of ease and compactness.

    Thats in reference to the Morrflate Compressors themselves though right? This was just focussing on the quad inflation system 👍

    Too bad you don't have the Morrflate compressor, I believe it can be preset and will turn off and it's very quick.

    I've looked into this and something I might try in the future. It looks the good on paper and no doubt will have some useful benefits.

    I could of, but even with everything crossed, I still can't control the weather 😆 Any reason the test would be different in hot weather, or any specific point that would differ from a regular method of inflating/deflating?

    @@XploringOz because a few minutes longer to blow tyres up isn’t really an issue on a comfortable 23 degree day, but on a stinking hot day with kids in the car and dogs, with the sun beating down and crawling around in the sand, 4-5 minutes becomes an intolerable pain in the arse. All of a sudden some of the drawbacks you pointed out become a little less relevant.

    It's 2023, why are we still having to adjust pressures manually? Every service station has an automated solution, why do we settle for less in the back of our 4WDs?

    You can automate it using the ARB system which is approx $400. I have seen Dash off-road is using that system with the Morrflate. Sets all 4 tyres to inflate and deflate. I’m unsure if everyone can afford it though

    Hey Simon, I hear you there. No doubt the industry is making its way in this direction. I guess size restrictions would play a small part, but I'm guessing the additional cost is another big factor. ARB have started this, will be interesting to see how the market adapts moving forward 👍

    @@XploringOz there's the Jamec Pem Auto 1000 (a bit big, but industrial quality) and the likes of the ARB with the app integration. The biggest issue with fast deflation/inflation times is the Schrader valve. I've gone less than 20 seconds to inflate a 35" tyre from 18-38psi, using tanks and a ball valve. Anyway, keep up the great work! Love the videos.
