So, I decided to buy and test a $20 dollar portable air compressor from Costco, for when I air down my tires when off roading and I have to re inflate back up

 

Take a guess, gentlemen, how long will it last? 1 week? 1 month? 1 day?

 

Its performance is disappointing at least (33 inch tire, from 15 to 35 psi in over 8 minutes, and overheated) but again, it was $20.00

I often see those types of compressors marketed as "top off" pumps, so good luck seat'n a bead with it.

For the record, I still want a Viair 300P tho
