The Maypole 12V Emergency Air Compressor is a compact and convenient tyre inflation solution designed to be kept in your vehicle ready for those unexpected moments when additional tyre pressure is required. Powered directly from a standard 12V cigar lighter socket, it provides straightforward electric inflation without the physical effort of operating a traditional foot pump.
Designed with everyday motorists in mind, the MP7942 incorporates an easy-to-read analogue pressure gauge covering 0–60 PSI, allowing you to monitor tyre pressure while inflating. This makes it useful for routine tyre pressure top-ups as well as a practical addition to your vehicle’s emergency equipment.
Maypole specifies an 8-minute inflation time when inflating a 175/70 R13 tyre from 0 to 30 PSI, providing a useful indication of the compressor’s performance. A simple On/Off switch makes operation straightforward, while the compressor has also been designed for low power consumption.
Connecting the compressor is equally simple thanks to its flexible air hose and quick-release valve connector. The connector provides a convenient attachment to a compatible tyre valve, helping make the MP7942 quick to set up when you need to add air.
It isn’t limited to car tyres either. Maypole lists the MP7942 as suitable for motorcycles, cars, bicycles, air mattresses and sports balls, making it a versatile compressor for motoring, leisure and everyday use.
Everything is housed within a compact, robust case, making the compressor easy to store in a car boot or alongside your other breakdown essentials without taking up unnecessary space. The integrated 12V cigar lighter plug means there’s no separate battery to keep charged – simply connect it to a suitable 12V vehicle socket when required.
