Hey! Would the new one have pumped the rugby ball up on the regular setting if its limit wasn’t set to 70kpa? Meaning have it set much higher? Thanks for your videos man!

Price mention is handy. I just checked, and the newer one (181 vs 180) is 75% higher price where I live (approx. USD equivalent $80 vs $140 our amazon); might have to flip a coin to decide (as lower price & weight/smaller storage is also good).

The lack of a locking trigger is tragic. I guess I'd just keep a foot of parachute cord on it to tie up the trigger when needed.

DMP181Z I am absolutely baffled by the design of this tyre inflator. 1. You set the target limit, but then have to bend down to hold in the trigger to make the pump work. I bought it to save my back and it doesn’t do that. 2. Why is there no auto shut off? What is the point setting the target pressure? The pump will also continue pumping if you hold the button in past the target pressure. 3. There is a bracket for a valve I’ll never use hanging on the end of the inflator tube which makes it very awkward to attach. Why isn’t it stored elsewhere? 4. The tube has a straight valve connector that loses pressure as you unscrew it and is also nigh on impossible to get it on to a motorcycle front wheel valve. Valve needs to be right angled and quick release.

Thanks for this video. I got the smaller one from my local home depot to bring my truck tires up from sand pressure, back to street-safe (12 to 25) and it was just too slow for the task. Seeing how the 181 is almost twice as fast, I think it will do nicely. I love having one battery system for all my tools... Makita is the best.

It’s cool but I’ll probably stick with the original as it fits perfectly under my back truck seat. Side note, 9,000 views and 285 thumbs up so far? Come on, we all know this man is putting out some of the best tool reviews. Perfect blend of real world info and a unique blend of comedy.

Great comparison review. That helped alot!

Got the 40v a few days ago and happy to say so far its been really good it inflates motor cycle tyres really quickly for a battery powered pump and the size isn’t really an issue considering it does the job quickly 💪🏻🏁

I prefer the quick clip on method. I use it on my racebike to fill my tires. Best Makita tool i own and also the cheapest in the toolbox :D

Still in my opinion a little bit small for filling anything other than a small car tire. I run a cheap12-volt clamp on car battery one that'll put out 42 LPM/1.47 CFM (Makita dmp181z 23LPM/.81CFM) and I feel like that is slow sometimes.

Great review as usual, thank you!

a perfect review. All the key info (except noise data), and entertaining to boot. I have the 180 and it's okay but weedy and quite loud, and the trigger thing is a pain, obviously. I use the ziptie mod too.

Thank you for the review. That helped. I have already "standardized" on the Makita batteries and have 2 Makita drills, a hedge trimmer, a 36V blower (that uses 2 18V batteries at a time) and a string weed trimmer, so I was already leaning towards a Makita air compressor, but this sealed it. Gonna purchase the Makita DMP181ZX 18V LXT. Sorry about your rugby ball!

It's crazy how fast they inflate the car tire from zero, wow. And that was fun watching the ball explode. 😂

Very thorough, nice work. I much prefer the clamp on style.

Fantastic comparison! I would’ve liked to see it with a very large truck tire but this video helped me out. My 180 will do a truck tire from 17 to 35 psi in about 7 minutes. I’m thinking the 181 will be around 4. Thanks again for the comparison

MATE Thankyou for ALL your Makita revews. As a Makita fan I have valued your opinions on the tools/ battries. I have choen with insight when gettting my kit.

"Make sure you lube up your needle before you jam it in your ball." LOL! Good advice! My take on the different ends is that the screw-on is easier for car tires...especially if there is tight clearance on a rim. I would prefer the older model with the quick connect. But I would probably use it more for my road bikes than car tires. I wished they had a version of the clamp-on end specifically for presta valves. Great comparison! Thanks!

DMP181Z is better then DMP180Z but the price difference is almost 2X times (115 euros vs. 60 euros). Same time, they are both home use only devices - for random flat ball or tire and that's it. You're not going to use them at air tools at the worksite, or in carshop etc. The thing, that 181 is a little bit faster, don't really matter in this case ... you going to use that anyway few times a year max and if you need a device for everyday use, you're going to get real tool, with tank and decent pump.

This is a great mobile tool. I love it. Perfect for road trips and pool floats/balls. I still fire up the compressor if I'm in my garage for the vehicles...it's just way faster.

I have the 12v version which is great for small car tires and bikes. A nice compact unit. Interesting that the old 18v one is little better than the 12v one though, glad I didn’t wait for that to come out! The new one is usefully more powerful and I’d probably buy that for workshop use, but no need now as I’m retired. :) If the lack of a trigger lock bothers you just set up and trim a zip tie and leave it on. Though I did that 2 years ago and have never used it! I don’t think I’d like the screw on valve connector but if it bothered me I’d change it to quick connect. (Or maybe combined Presta/Schrader)

Very good. I’m sold. The 181 is $62US dollars more that the 180 but definitely seems worth it. Thanks.

Thank you, good review. Can this pump be used on SUP’s?

Thank you! I was looking at these at a local store and didn't know the difference. I'll definitely be going with the 181, faster and has the screw on connector.

Loved the opening... Fly fishing NZ is on my bucket list! Dang COVID... Lord willing, I'll make it there someday.

I like the screw on better , you don’t have to worry about it slipping or not holding properly works the same every time

I'll stick to the DMP180Z - The angled valve connector is perfect for kids motorbikes and tight places.

If you hold the trigger on and it gets to pressure and shuts off does it start pumping again if the pressure drops?

The fact that makita didn't make a trigger hold is insane! Dewalt and Milwaukee both have the feature that let you set them and walk away.

Can't wait to get the new one. Not available at Amazon for me in the US yet. I use my LXT one all the time and I'll just leave in my truck tool box. The trigger thing is not a big deal. I just keep a velcro strap on mine. I thought about getting the XGT version but it doesn't seem that there is that much advantage and I don't have any XGT tools yet. And yes, I'll appreciate the screw on connection as I have a lot of tube tires I'm inflating and it's hard to get the clamp on one on some of them.

Do you have to let go of the trigger when you reach the set pressure or do you keep the trigger squeezed until the machine stops by itself? Assuming it stops by itself right?

Another great video. The simplest thing is that Makita should just sell an adapter that you screw on yo the end that lets you clamp to a valve the way the 180 does. Then you have the best of both worlds. Like you said, a lock on the button is missing, but what I would also like to see is a low pressure, high volume mode for blowing up paddle pools and the like.

You can buy an adapter and srew it on. If the seal in adapter breaks from squeezing, you could buy a new adapter and your tool itself is still ok. So I prefer the DMP181 over the DMP180.

I wish id know the bigger version was coming out before I bought the first 18v inflator. I pressure test heating systems with mine often and I think it struggles.

People really be mad about it having no trigger lock 😆

I got my DMP181 a few days ago. What I don't understand is that in the price-class of more than 100 EUR they didn't manage to put the LED straight on. It shines about 10 degrees to the right, at least on the one that I bought. Of course the tool and it's light is absolutely usable, but for that price I would like to get more perfection and/or quality control. The solution that the DMP181 has - to srew it onto the car-velves - is not bad, especially when I remember how many seals on "90°-squeeze-solutions" I have seen broken. However, I immediately upgraded to a "screw-on quick-adapter" (I don't know how they're called in english). A penny-tool if Makita bought them in bulk, I don't understand why they deliver it with the tool (in this price-class!).

Is a tear down in the planning? I would love to see the internal differences and what they’ve need all that extra space for!

Lovely - and I just bought the 180 for my car. Smaller is better when you have limited cargo space. I’m no about to time myself though. What’s the time when you need to, say, get a tire up to 32PSI after it leaks down to 20PSI? Just what I’d need to get my car to a shop ... Battery voltage? Keep it the same as your impact wrench and you need carry but one battery.

@hobbes3

7 ай бұрын

That's exactly what I did. Got my 18V 1/2" impact wrench with a 21mm deep socket, a Harbor Freight torque adapter, a 15" breaker bar, and this 18V inflator and I'm good to go for all tire changes lol.

I loved my old 12V Makita but sold it to a friend when I got this new one. It is a LOT better. BUT WHY NO TRIGGER LOCK, MAKITA?

Really wish they would add a powerful cooling fan to these small inflators. They get so hot and don't use much power, so I don't see any downside.

I use DMP180 mostly to inflate mtb tires. The valve connector and the auxiliary adapters are like straight from 1981, not 2021. I really wish it had a valve connector that can handle both Presta and Schrader valves. Why not, there are floor pumps and pressure gauges with such connectors. And for my preference it should be quick connect type. Tyre pressure check is my daily routine (especially tubeless mtb tires often lose pressure). It is too slow and cumbersome with the connector that accompanies DMP180 for Presta valves. But I think all in all it would be the best if the hose had a connector onto which you can screw any kind of end, and then of course Makita would provide a sufficient variety of different connectors. - I like the improved display and deflate button on the newer model. I would like to be able to calibrate the pressure gauge. I have three gauges that give same readings between them. Makita's values differ slightly, by 1-2 PSI.

Wait, what is the point of the auto shutoff if you have to hold it? The entire point of auto shutoff is to increase safety and convenience. It actually can be dangerous to sit next to the tire while it's inflating. Even my much cheaper Ryobi has this feature.

OK, amending my last question... is it only a voltage/charge Guage with the readouts and NOT a charger? Or does it charge as well? (*This may be why I can't seem to find it via my searches)

I found the 180 to be very accurate

I’m at a loss as to why makita doesn’t make a proper LXT or XGT cordless air compressor. Seems like they could just strap one or two of these to a 5 or 10 litre tank. And call it a day.

The screw on valve seems a better fit although would be annoying trying to get it on the thread right to start. But it would be more secure than just the push on valve. IMO. You should do a test between the big bertha with the 5ah battery vs a 3ah or/and a 6ah battery. I know it can make a big difference with the drill so would expect it to make a difference with this. Your time would be a lot slower with the 3ah and faster with the 6ah I think. Also, I have a Ranger with the big all terrains on it. Would like to see how it goes with that.

As far as the Schrader valve goes I don't like either as neither will fit onto my wheelbarrows or mulcher wheels, so I have to take the wheels off and trundle up to the servo and fill up there as their schrader valve is offset and double headed so it can come back on itself. This to me is a major flaw that would be simple for Makita to fix, but it pumps up pool toys etc easily. So come on Makita Fix it. Cheers

The best feature of the new one was that I got the old one for peanuts.

I have switched to milwaukee tool sets at work and got the inflator its really good . I still use all my makita at home really like my makita tools. I bought the 181 not going to mess with little ones no comparison milwaukee was better in so many ways. First time disappointed with makita besides the battery issue that was the reason to switch at work. I wish I could return 181 I really don't like it.

In would like to see how the British attachment works ?

I sorta hate the clamp on thingy, that said I have the new one here and will send it back. For one, it tends to overfill by a rather large margin (talking car tires here). Also, the screw on connector will result in non exact pressures over all4 wheels since you loos a ton of air while detaching. And that bugs the hell out of me. Finally having the wheels at precisely the same pressure actually was the killer feature for me on the old one and the reason I got that in the first place. For what I do (just refilling a bit) the smaller one just is the better tool, it tucks away nicely under a false boot floor, it's precise and it's affordable...I'll keep that!

Hey man did you experience any problems with the pump over-shooting? I just got mine, and once the pump reaches the set pressure, the display stays there for a while but the pump keeps going. When the pump finally shuts off, the display suddenly jumps to the current pressure, which is usually 4psi higher than I set. Then I have to fiddle around deflating. If I'm just topping up my tires, it ends up doubling the time it takes. Seems like they messed up some tuning or specifications in the factory.
