I've purchased Gooloo devices in the past, mainly the GP4000 battery starters for vehicles, I believe we have 3 of those now and I've had 2 others purchase the GP4000 and like them as well, so I thought I would try the Gooloo tire inflator. I've not used the unit as a battery pack to charge a phone or anything else yet, but given my good track record with Gooloo jump starters, I have no concerns that this unit won't function as described for charging a phone.
Pros - The unit is compact, easy to use, and straightforward in its design and function. Carrying bag is nice, although I wish it would have come with a hard sided case like the older models GP4000 battery jump starters did. I inflated a single tire from 27 to 35 psi once, topped off all 4 tires to 35 psi on another occasion from low 30's, and the unit still had over half of the battery left. Comes with drawstring bag for storage, attachment to inflate vehicle tires, and a few other accessories to air up balls and the such.
Cons - This unit takes a bit to inflate a tire from 27 to 35 psi. I didn't time it, but I would guess from 27 to 35 psi took 5 minutes or thereabout. Gooloo has switched to a soft sided bag as opposed to a hard sided case in their newer products and I wish they would still provide a hard sided case. The battery lost 1-2 bars for this one tire, so I question if you needed to air up all 4 tires a combined 40 psi between all 4 tires, if the unit would have enough battery to do so. That being said, you would probably have more pressing issues than the charge life of this unit if you were needing to add 10 psi to every tire at one time.
I really like the Gooloo brand of products so far and this inflator doesn't alter my opinion of Gooloo. This products seems to be built well, doesn't look cheap, feels substantial in weight for its size, functions well, and is very easy to use. If you or someone you know is needing an inflator for piece of mind for those instances where you aren't around an air compressor, I would without doubt, recommend this device. This unit would be a cheap piece of mind in case you come out from the store at night and find out you have a low tire.
