Need something to blow up my dolls, I mean tubeless tyres.
Needs to be electric. Have bout £100 to spend. Thinking of this:

Will it be any good
Netto are doing one cheap this week, infact tonight I'm off to take a look as mine has died.

or the sort of large barrel air pump you get for blowing up airbed/kitesurf kites:

low pressure but high flow, works well with valve core out for seating purposes. does still require pumping like a loon tho.
The Netto ones look a good deal.
I was looking for something more compact that I could travel to France with.
Would 6 litre be man enough for the job?
The size of the receiver isn't very important tbh, max pressure counts for more. Butyou can seat motorbike tyres with a decent 6l 1hp compressor so it'll make short work of a mtb tyre.
Or you could buy some tubes 😉
