Review: Great pump - Have to say, bit sceptical but needed a pump as my 12v cigar lighter pump was giving up the ghost and the lead was too short to reach the rear wheels on my motorhome anyway. This was a lot bigger in the flesh than looks on photo, VERY POWERFUL though! Did my car, works van and motorhome in a few minutes. Brill Review: Nice piece of kit - So far so good. I've used on the wheelbarrow tyre and topped up air on my wife's car. It was quick and efficient. Note you loose a bit of air as you unscrew the connector. So be prepared and unscrew the connector rapidly. ## Features - Ideal for inflating tyres of cars, bicycles, sports balls and more - 65cm hose length - LED job light for easier operation in poor light conditions - Main power switch with auto power off - Protection from overheating - Auto stop at pre-set target pressure and memory function - 3 inflation modes for high speed, low speed and ball mode with air release function - Digital pressure gauge with added convenient functions - Supplied with various valve adapters that can be stored on the machine - Not compatible with G-Series batteries ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09HMT41NF | | Air Flow Capacity | 22 Litres Per Minute | | Best Sellers Rank | 63,419 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 20,856 in Power & Hand Tools (DIY & Tools) | | Brand | Makita | | Capacity | 22 LPM | | Colour | Turqouise | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,587 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00088381748902 | | Hose Length | 65 Centimetres | | Included Components | 1 x Makita DMP181Z | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 20.3L x 7.6W x 27.3H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Cordless LXT Inflator | | Item Weight | 2.09 kg | | Manufacturer | Makita | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer warranty with a further 2 years when registered within 30 days of purchase. | | Material | Aluminium, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel | | Maximum Horsepower | 1.5 Horsepower | | Maximum Pressure | 1.100 | | Model Name | DMP181Z | | Model Number | DMP181Z | | Noise level | 70 Decibels | | Part Number | DMP181Z | | Power source | Battery Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | Inflating car tires, bike tires, and sports balls | | Recommended uses for product | Inflating car tires, bike tires, and sports balls | | Sound Level | 70 Decibels | | Special Features | Portable, Digital, 3 Fill Modes, Work Lighting | | Special feature | Portable, Digital, 3 Fill Modes, Work Lighting | | Style | Single | | UPC | 088381748902 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Voltage | 18 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Makita - **Noise level:** 70 Decibels - **Power source:** Battery Powered - **Recommended uses for product:** Spraying - **Voltage:** 18 Volts ## Images ![Makita DMP181Z 18V Li-ion LXT Inflator – Batteries and Charger Not Included - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51GkkW+2hjL.jpg) ![Makita DMP181Z 18V Li-ion LXT Inflator – Batteries and Charger Not Included - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617x7MGMccL.jpg) ![Makita DMP181Z 18V Li-ion LXT Inflator – Batteries and Charger Not Included - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61OLj4Y7aWL.jpg) ![Makita DMP181Z 18V Li-ion LXT Inflator – Batteries and Charger Not Included - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Ca1kowemL.jpg) ![Makita DMP181Z 18V Li-ion LXT Inflator – Batteries and Charger Not Included - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51imDB-BLxL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it come in the Makita box?** A: Hello, Yes it does come in a Makita Offical Cardboard Box. Kind Regards, Tom Foulger's Tool Store **Q: Is it me, or does the auto shut off not work?** A: It does stop but goes upto max within that number you put in. Example. If you set it at 36. It goes to 36 but then mKes sure its full 36 before it just goes to 37. If it keeps going up then it's an issue. Just read the manual again, in case it's disabled. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pump *by M***D on 26 February 2026* Have to say, bit sceptical but needed a pump as my 12v cigar lighter pump was giving up the ghost and the lead was too short to reach the rear wheels on my motorhome anyway. This was a lot bigger in the flesh than looks on photo, VERY POWERFUL though! Did my car, works van and motorhome in a few minutes. Brill ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice piece of kit *by P***E on 10 March 2026* So far so good. I've used on the wheelbarrow tyre and topped up air on my wife's car. It was quick and efficient.

So be prepared and unscrew the connector rapidly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent *by D***R on 23 February 2024* Bought this for trackdays in my car just received it today so I’ve tested it. As usual with makita it feels very robust and a quality item. The noise from it wasn’t so loud although you wouldn’t use it in the middle of the night with the neighbours When I tested it I set it at 25psi and it takes it to 27.5psi before automatically stopping which is ok as I just let 2.5psi out then it’s right. The pressure gauge on this was coming up 0.5psi out which ain’t bad either. The cheaper model you can use it for 5mins then you have to rest it for 5mins whereas this model you can use for 10mins and rest it for 5mins which for me is much better. The air connection that is chained on to it I have to say is next to USELESS. you need to buy a connector that just clips on plus you don’t lose any air taking the hose off the wheel. Also it doesn’t seem to use much battery up which was a surprise. I may update this after my first trackday which is soon. Also don’t forget to register this on line within 30 days of buying it to get your 3 year warranty that’s always worth having. UPDATE on further testing this I’ve found rather than waiting for it to stop itself which gives you 2.5lb over just stop it yourself at whatever you need then it’s bang on. Or if you prefer to keep the button down with something and do it that way just set the pressure 2.5lb less than you want. I put 25psi in my tyres for my track car and just set it at 22.5 and it’s right. This is a hundred times better than them 12v things. If you have the battery and charger then go for it. Even if you don’t have the battery and charger I would recommend it as you only need a low ah battery ## Frequently Bought Together - Makita DMP181Z 18V Li-ion LXT Inflator – Batteries and Charger Not Included - Trigger Lock Button Compatible with Makita DMP180Z, Lenink Power Button On/Off Control Clamp Lock Compatible with Makita Cordless Inflator Air Compressor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/374853181-makita-dmp181z-18v-li-ion-lxt-inflator-batteries-and-charger](https://www.desertcart.us/products/374853181-makita-dmp181z-18v-li-ion-lxt-inflator-batteries-and-charger) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-12*
