    I use the nozzle reducer that comes with the kit. I first push the valve open to make certain it's free (not sticking) and then the force of air blows it open and fills the mega fenders etc.

    This photo includes the attachments that come with the blower. The center piece is what works well for me.

    Just use a home depot pancake air compressor. You can set the regulator on one down to 10-12 psi and they'll run like that without blowing up. Also the grey round 120 volt pump that West Marine sells for toys/ribs works really well also.

    Thanks but looking for a smaller foot print (re the pancake).
    The WM one looks interesting.

    I use a West Marine Deluxe pump for inflatable with High Pressure floor. Does a great job and shuts off when set pressure is attained. I do use a small round pump for high volume low pressure.

    I just received the Rave pump. Man that thing puts out gale force-level air!

    Still haven't figured out what I'm going to do to get it from 3--->10 psi but this thing will get to 3 in less than a couple minutes probably.

    Thanks for the recommendation.
