Small, electric air pumps can be real lifesavers in the car. But the pumps are also worthwhile for bicycles and e-scooters – especially since they are already really cheap. We have selected exciting mini air pumps with rechargeable batteries for you.
When it comes to an air pressure compressor, many people probably first think of the huge devices that you occasionally find at the gas station – but the battery air pumps presented here don’t have much in common with them. Because the electric air pumps are only about the size of a power bank. However, one should not underestimate the models, because according to the manufacturer, up to about 10 bar (approx. 145 psi) can be used here, despite their small size. One of the best-known devices in the super compact class is probably the Xiaomi Mi Portable Air Compressor, which is also quite cheap at around 40 euros (view at Amazon).
However, you shouldn’t expect too much from these small air pumps: One battery charge is enough for a maximum of one flat car tire (depending on the tire) or around eight bicycle tires. In general, however, this should be more than sufficient.
In the following table you can see a comparison of the cordless air pumps selected by the editors. For more information, see the table below.

Comparison instead of test: What’s the difference?
For this comparison, a CHIP specialist editor examined test reports from other publications as well as the most popular offers (“best sellers”) and customer opinions from online retailers. Based on this we made the product selection. When selecting the top devices, we focus on models with more than four stars and a reasonably high number of reviews. We have read a selection of customer reviews and selected devices that, based on our professional assessment, meet the needs of the users. The products have not been tested in the CHIP test center.
All products that the CHIP test center had in the laboratory can be found in this overview of the best lists. You can find products that have also been tested by our cooperation partners here and here.
