I use these so I can fill my MTB tires from my shop compressor. I'll probably throw a couple in the R1T compressor kit.
There is a presta adapter, but the issue is the schrader air chuck comes out straight instead of at an angle. Had to practically wrap the hose up in my wheel to be able to get it on the adapter.
I use this on the compressor at the house, was hoping it would work off the Rivian compressor. It has a universal head that works on Schrader and presta valves, would help get accurate pressure on the truck tires as well.
Most of those look like they are meant to be used on a line that's already pressurized. The pump head I modified locks onto the valve so you can hand pump air into tires. I made it for my automatic 'inflate-to-pressure' system, which is exactly what the rivian's system is. All I will need to do is lock it onto the valve, set the pressure, and hit the "go" button.
Obviously. They *can't* get an accurate measurement while it's still flowing using existing hardware, and pausing to measure wastes time, so we're back to square one - use it as is, figure out the difference between set and actual, and adjust your set accordingly. Easy day!
Wait, is that not how you are supposed to do it?
Lol so they did go with a run/pause cycle to measure! That's what you'd expect for an automatic system, but bummer that it's going to take that much longer to fill.
so just reorder the steps? put inflator on hose, start compressor, stick on valve.
Not sure if the cycles are adaptive, will need to do some more testing.
I don't use to portable charger regularly, so I do keep it there. I have been able to pull the small tab in the front and squeeze some small items in there. But honestly, I haven't found a need to use that extra space for daily activities. Plenty of space for my needs.
