Many of us spend a great deal of time in our vehicles, either traveling to and from work, going out, going to school, or some other activity. We rely on our vehicles to get us to where we have to go, and when something comes up that makes that vehicle not be able to perform that function it is a major source of stress and frustration.
The best way to avoid that stressful situation is to take two courses of action. One is to keep everything in the vehicle in good mechanical shape so you don’t have any sort of breakdown. The other is to be prepared for those sorts of incidents that can’t always be prevented. Two of the worst are dead batteries and flat tires. Both can ruin a day rather quickly, but with the right gear, be nothing more than a minor hiccup. That’s where the folks at AstroAI come in.
Being Prepared
The bad part of getting a dead battery or having a flat tire is that the quick fix used to be something that might rely on someone else to save the day. If you had a dead battery, the most common fix was to pull out a set of jumper cables and then ask someone to give you a jumpstart. The problem there is that it forces you to be at the mercy of another motorist. That may not always be a problem, but what if you’re out at night and somewhere where there isn’t another car for miles?
And flat tires caused their own issues. If you came to find that your air pressure was too low, you either needed to find a gas station with a working air hose or you go through the process of changing the tire, which creates other hazards, like working on your car on the side of the road. Not to mention, you have to have a spare tire that you can access, and then hope it is inflated itself. It is a terrible feeling to have a flat tire and then struggle to get the spare out, only to find it has gone flat, too.
There are modern tools that can help prepare you, or your loved ones, for being on the road and for those times when things just don’t go right. Portable jump starters are gaining traction as a good alternative to jumper cables, as they take up less space than a set of cables and have the advantage of being self-sufficient, meaning you don’t need another car to get your dead battery jumped and back on the running side of life. Portable air compressors also exit to give you quick and easy access to a working air pump to inflate your tires to the proper levels, all without needing to worry about the spare tire or if the gas station on the corner has a working air hose.
The Ultimate Automotive Multi Tool
The AstroAI S8 Air is a solution to both problems, as it a portable jump starter with a built-in compact air compressor. This ultra-compact unit is a major help when it comes to getting back on the road quickly and safely.
You can quickly and safely jumpstart your dead battery in a matter of seconds with the battery jump starter part of the AstroAI S8 Air. It has a powerful, 1500-amp lithium battery booster that can jumpstart a dead battery in your vehicle up to 20 times on a single change. You can use it on most standard-duty vehicles and it is rated for up to six-liter gasoline and three-liter diesel engines. The S8 Air battery pack can reliably start all 12V batteries, and it’ll work with your car, truck, SUV, ATV, lawn mower and more. It has an operating temperature range of -4 to 140°F.
But the AstroAI S8 Air is more than just a jump starter. It has a 150-PSI air compressor with five preset modes that make it perfect for inflating everything from your car tires, to motorcycles, ATV, and lawn mower tires. It can even inflate basketballs and pool floaties. The compressor automatically stops at your preset pressure, too, so there is no need to keep checking the pressure and make adjustments along the way. The air compressor when fully charged can inflate a medium-sized car tire from 28 PSI to 36 PSI a whopping 21 times.
The S8 Air has multiple built-in safety features to keep it from damaging itself and from damaging your car, so you can feel safe using it. It even has a built-in flashlight to help illuminate the night because you know that’s when things go wrong.
A Breath Of Fresh Air
But what if you already have a jump starter? Then you will want the AstroAI L7 Portable Tire Inflator. This compact, battery-powered tire inflator makes quick work of flats and takes up less space than you might think possible. The cool thing about the L7 is that it is self-contained and doesn’t require a 12-volt outlet to plug into to operate. It has a 4000mAh battery that, on a full charge, gives it enough juice to pump up 8 tires back to back. Don’t worry about over inflating, either. AstroAI’s patented “TrueGauge Technology” gives you accurate pressure readings so you know where you stand.
The AstroAI L7 has four inflation modes for different vehicles, other inflatables and custom settings that you can prepare for whatever you need to inflate. It also has three modes for lighting, with a flashlight, strobe and SOS modes to add some safety and illumination to the dark of the night. It also features USB-C and USB input/output ports, turning it into an emergency power bank to keep your phone charged.
