- Can it inflate a car tire from flat?
- Yes. It fills a standard passenger tire in a few minutes, though large tires take longer and the unit should be allowed to cool between fills.

- No. It connects with battery clamps and draws up to 20 amps, which is more than most 12-volt sockets can supply.
- What is the maximum pressure?
- 120 PSI, which covers passenger car tires and most light truck and trailer tires.
- Does it have a pressure gauge?
- The base 88P does not include a built-in gauge or auto shut-off, so you need a separate tire gauge to set pressure accurately.
- How loud is it?
- About 76 dB, noticeably louder than a conversation and best used outdoors or with hearing protection nearby.

- The compressor, a 16-foot hose, battery clamps and a storage bag. Check the listing for any included accessories.
