Multifunctional design at its best

Whether it’s your car, bike, or football, a flat tire is at best a nuisance. But it can also be dangerous and extremely stressful. At home, air compressors or bike pumps are the most common solutions, but they’re both relatively bulky, and air compressors are cumbersome and loud. Plus, it can be very difficult to find an air compressor at a gas station when you’re on the go. That’s where the Denvix Portable Air Compressor comes in. Thanks to its compact form factor, this smart product lets you inflate tires or pretty much anything else that needs air on the go.

The Denvix Portable Air Compressor does much more than inflate tires and balls. Its flashlight and power bank functionality make it a unique and versatile device worth having in your car or garage. I’ve used it extensively, testing all of its features and I’m very impressed.

What I like about the Denvix portable air compressor

Versatile design always wins

It seems like almost everything requires a special tool or technology these days, which is why I get excited when I see a product that has multiple functions. One of the reasons I love the Denvix Portable Air Compressor so much is that it is so much more than just a portable air compressor. It also comes with a bright, multi-mode flashlight and doubles as a power bank. All of these different features make it a great item to have on hand in case of an emergency. I’m especially glad I have it now as we approach the peak of Florida’s hurricane season.

This flashlight has four modes: a white light mode with two brightness levels, a yellow light, and a red strobe. The brightest setting is bright enough to do car maintenance at night or to light up a small room. The yellow light is soft enough to use in a tent before going to sleep. The red strobe gives you peace of mind if you need to pull over to the side of the road at night to get some air in your tires. This flashlight alone ticks a lot of boxes for versatility, making it perfect for car camping, power outages at home, and car maintenance.

Having just moved to Florida, I’ve been stocking up on power banks in case I need one during a bad hurricane. The Denvix doubles as a power bank, adding another option to my emergency toolkit. It has USB-A and USB-C ports, so you can charge two devices at the same time. Denvix claims that the 15000mAh battery can charge an iPhone four times or a MacBook Air once. I haven’t had time to fully test it yet, but I was able to charge my mirrorless camera and smartphone at the same time. Both had about 50% battery left when I plugged them in. After fully charging both devices in about an hour and a half, the Denvix battery was only down to 30%. That’s very impressive.

The large battery capacity also means you can inflate a lot of stuff before needing to charge the device. Denvix claims that the product can inflate 7 car tires, 22 motorcycles, 31 bicycles, and 154 balls. I filled up my tires before riding my bike and the battery only dropped to 1%. When you do need to charge it, it comes with a PD&QC cigarette lighter adapter so you can charge it in your car. I didn’t run out of battery during testing so I can’t say how long it takes to charge, but Denvix claims that it will charge in 1 hour with a 45W charger or 2 hours with a 25W charger.

Of course, the main function of the Denvix Portable Air Compressor is, as the name suggests, to inflate things with air. There are four preset modes, as well as a custom mode for filling different products at different PSI. If you manually change the PSI in any mode, it will save that setting as a custom mode the next time you use it. It also automatically stops filling once the specified PSI is reached, so there’s no guessing. You can also change the unit of measurement from PSI to kPa, kg/cm2, or BAR.

Despite its compact size, the filling speed is almost the same as a larger air compressor, making it faster and easier than using a manual bike pump. The hose has a Schrader valve adapter so you can fill far-away tires without any extras. It also comes with all the adapters you need for other uses, including three different options and a Presta adapter for filling balls, balloons, inflatable pool toys, and more.

What I didn’t like about the Denvix portable air compressor

Hot mounting points and soft hoses

There aren’t many complaints about the Tire Device, but there are a few worth pointing out. First, the attachment point gets very hot even for a short time. It took just under 30 seconds to inflate one bike tire, and even in that short time, the base of the hose that connects to the air compressor got very hot. With a car tire, it obviously takes much longer, and gets very hot when it does. In those situations, I had to wait until I put the device away to avoid burning my fingers.

Additionally, the included hose is a pain to attach and remove; there’s nothing that swivels at the base of the hose, so the whole 17-inch long tube dangles when attaching or removing it. It’s a small gripe, but some kind of swivel would have made this a much better device.

It’s worth noting that despite its compact size, the Denvix Portable Air Compressor is still an air compressor, and as such, it is quite loud – this is to be expected for such a device, so we don’t consider it a negative, but it’s something users should be aware of.

Should you buy a Denvix portable air compressor?

Simply put, this is one of those products that everyone should have in their car or garage (or both). It’s relatively affordable for the features it offers, so it’s worth having on hand for emergencies. Having a bright flashlight, a high-capacity power bank, and an air compressor all in one compact device is pretty impressive and perfect for any situation. Filling up your tires and balls regularly will save you time and effort, as well as the potential for headaches and stress in an emergency.
