Makita DMP181 18v LXT Cordless Air Tyre Inflator
The Makita DMP181 is a cordless tyre inflator powered by Makita's 18v LXT Li-Ion battery platform, designed for inflating car tyres, bicycle tyres, sports balls and other inflatables on site or at the roadside. This versatile inflator delivers a maximum air pressure of 1,110 kPa (161 PSI) with variable air discharge rates of 22 litres per minute at lower pressures, making it suitable for a wide range of inflation tasks from delicate sports balls to heavy-duty agricultural and commercial vehicle tyres.
The DMP181 features three distinct inflation modes – high speed, low speed and ball mode – allowing tradespeople to match the inflation rate to the specific application. The digital pressure gauge provides accurate readings, whilst the auto-stop function automatically shuts off when the pre-set target pressure is reached, preventing over-inflation and saving time on repetitive tasks. An integrated LED job light illuminates the work area in poor lighting conditions, particularly useful for roadside repairs or early morning site work.
Built with professional convenience in mind, this cordless inflator includes a main power switch with auto power-off to prevent accidental activation during transport between jobs. The ergonomic handle design ensures comfortable operation, whilst the 65cm hose length provides sufficient reach for most vehicle applications. Protection from overheating safeguards the motor during extended use, and the included adapter holder keeps multiple inflation nozzles organised and readily accessible.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
