Why drag that contraption out with the lawn tractor when you could have just pumped up the truck tire using the 12v battery under the hood of the truck to power that compressor?

number one my battery died and i had to to tow the truck and it was out of gas two i wanted to power something with my generator

I wonder if it would charge deep-cycle batteries.

[4x4chevy222]

it would but it would do it fast it runs at like 20 volts

I've got one of these. I hooked it up to my flux capacitor and went back in time and kissed my mom. Gross.

Fantastic now you can just stand there and look at the tire and think if I just had set of leads so the tow car could of jump started it and some spare fuel in a can that was used for the generator, I would not have needed to go to all this trouble. But where is the fun in that :)

If you had the truck towed because the battery was dead and you are out of gas then why are you going to all this trouble just to air up the tire.???
