- Will it inflate a large air mattress?
- It can, but slowly. The pump is built for sleeping pads, pillows and small inflatables, not big mattresses or tires.
- How many pads can it inflate on one charge?
- The 3600 mAh battery typically handles several sleeping pads per charge. Cold weather and larger pads reduce that.
- Does it need to be plugged in to work?
- No. It runs on its internal battery, so you can inflate gear anywhere. You only need a USB source to recharge it.
- Can it deflate as well as inflate?
- Yes. It can pull air out to compress sleeping pads and pillows for packing.
- Is it a good replacement for a hand pump?
- For sleeping pads, yes. It saves effort and packs smaller than most hand pumps, though it is slower than a high-volume foot pump.
- Can it charge my phone?
- It can top up small devices in a pinch through its USB output, but the battery is small, so treat that as an emergency feature.
- Where is the Exped Widget Pump White cheapest?
- At Backcountry, for $70.00, as of our latest check.
