Electric Kite Pumps

[Ergo1]

I know there has been much discussion about electric kite pumps. After using one, I thought what a great addition to my kiting gear. In trying to sort out which electric pump will give me the least headaches and will give me years of service, I could only find two models that were portable, battery driven, and designed specifically for kiting - the Windchaser and BST12. I wondered who has experience with either unit and their impressions. I will be using the electric pump in the tropics and mostly in a beach enviroment.

Thank You

It will get you 75% of the way there, finish off by hand.

I use one of these http://seamaxboat.com/shop/category_Dig ... =cid%3D%26
which is the same one Windchaser sells, just less expensive.

Going on almost two years now. pumps my entire quiver of 5 kites and then some with one 7amh external battery.

I'm not going to vouch for its quality build or anything, it is a Chinese made pump which is being re-branded and sold by Seamax, Windchaser and several other websites, I can say it works and if cared for I think I will easily get 3 years out of it but I'd be happy with 2 years, at $140

I decided to go the same route. Given that the Canadian dollar is depressed against the US dollar, this unit is quite a bargain. Besides after speaking with the SeaMax representative, and looking further at the other products out there, I am sure I've made the right choice.

Thank you all responding to my post!!!!

Bravo BP 12, have had mine for a year. Adjust dial to desired pressure and push button, pump turns off when inflated. One of the best kite related purchases ever!
