We don't have that one, but have used another with an air dryer system that we were told would be a good alternative to nitrogen. Total BS. Don't waste your time with it unless you are going to run nitrogen. It is cool seeing the tires get sucked flat though. You'll also need a set of earplugs. (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) things are noisy.

Wow those things are spendy for what they are.
Just curious, but those of you who are interested in evacuating the air from tires before you fill them with N2, have you checked into an old vacuum pump from an HVAC guy?

You can get new one's, reasonably cheap, even if they aren't top of the line models, they'd work great for pulling air out of a tire. Check pawn shops too, around here anyway it always seems like there's one or 2 laying in a back corner.
