Hi guys, just stumbled upon these on Amazon...
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01MCWGREM
Looks like a decent alternative to the Airshot, and only £30 currently.
Only one 2-star review on Amazon but some decent reviews on YouTube. I've took a gamble on one and will report back!
Why do these links never work for me, did you post this from kindle? I mean its got about a billion characters..
Nothing here to help work out where I would like to go on the innerwebs to find this product.

After all that, its a weird thing, its a 0.6L reservoir meant for carrying on your bike, with built in lock. Might as well have added a sunglasses and helmet holder too..
A bit small I'd think. Suspect it would really struggle on 29er tyres?
As mentioned, bizarrely seems to be something meant to be carried around on the bike. Wtf?
What an odd product. Not quite as big as an Airshot (other inflators exist), but far bigger than a CO2 cartridge.
6l chamber/150 psi 12v compressor for £50...
My best guess is it's effectively supposed to be a non-disposable CO2 container? Not that this is a thing that anyone needs, but it's the only explanation I can think of...
Well, that description has peeked my interest Northwind… I’ll take a look…
My Airshot was £43.50. Worth the extra I think.
I got one of these in a pack with a renkompressor track pump. Both absolute shite and got sent back after a couple of uses. The track pump was hilariously bad, I thought sks had a good rep but just looked like a classic product outsourced and penny pinched to death.
Got the schwalbe inflator thing and it's night and day better.
I've got one of these, back in the day when you could go on holiday with your Mountain bike to America
After missing a day of riding due to not being able to get a new tubeless tire on my bike I bought one to ensure i could inflate tubeless tires. As it was light enough for me take in my luggage
Too big to carry around in your pack imho - but your not going to need to reseat a tire when out on your bike..
Only used it a couple of times - but each time it has reseated my tubeless tires (With valve core inner out wheel)
Similar idea (i.e. small sized, portable, tubeless inflator) to the Milkit one.
Though the Milkit differs in that it's a metal 'water' bottle with an attachment that screws in.
Good idea, as you can use it for drinking on the bike, and then if you need to reinflate you empty out the water, fit the inflator valve, pump up and reinflate.
I've not used mine outside of the garage yet, but it's not failed to inflate a tyre yet.

Yes the world needs more single use products.
I don't think it's a bad concept....just badly executed.

And you carry that round in your pack yes ?
