>>You don't like the driving issue, fine. I have a shop compressor with a

safe at pressures much over 45 psi and my compressor doesn't even have a

For your compressor analogy to work you will need to replace the hose and
fitting you use to fill your tires with those from a bicycle pump and then
run the compressor at its full rating. And remember your compressor is
designed to do more than fill tires. Good Luck

No, that's a racket used to sell certification classes... They don't want to

Although I agree that DIN is a better connector, I don't see a problem with
them using a yoke fitting... The O-ring will blow out if you use it at too
high of a pressure and it'll make a loud noise... Shouldn't be too big of a
deal...

OK, try this instead:
http://www.colemanpowermate.com/comp...airtanks.shtml

125 psi and it only has an air chuck fitting on it... Therefore, it is
expressly designed just for filling tires...

Or what about this:
http://www.autobarn.net/acafs-260.html

275 psi... Not going to find too many tires that will be able to handle that
I suppose...

Storage tanks, not compressors. You could fill more than one tire with
it if need be.

I would LOVE to see one of those 12volt pumpers fill anything up to that
pressure rating! Might take "days" to do it. :)
