I am tired of paying to put air in my tires and want to buy a portable pump to inflate them. Has anyone had experience with either the BMW or Continental Kits? If so, will they also operate without the sealant to inflate seasonally low tires? Any others to consider? I currently have a foot pump model but find it difficult to attach its thumb operated end over the valve without losing more air.

Thanks for any thoughts/suggestions.

Portable pumps are useless. Your foot pump will be faster. I know in California, air is free at our service stations. You just have to ask the attendant to turn it on for you.
