Tyre deflator test
Tyre deflator test
So curiosity killed the cat and as I do not own one of these fancy jobbs, I thought it would be interesting to see how effectively it really works.
So I pumped my wheel to 3.0 Bar, with my trusty T-Max (bit much but it was only a test....) as to see how long it would take to deflate to 0.8 Bar (tyre 245 / 75 / 16 Bridgestone Mudz) I stopped the clock at 65 seconds Then from 0.8 Bar to 3.0 Bar took an amazing 2 min 35 sec with the T-Max (once again I was impressed with this machine)
Then I did the manual test, using the valve only to deflate from 3.0 Bar to 0.8 Bar.
A staggering 3 min 6 sec, which x4 would result in 12 min 26 sec. Just out of interest, from 2.5 Bar - 1.5 Bar took approx. 35 seconds
And from 1.5 Bar - 0.8 Bar approx. 20 seconds!
For R280.00 def worth the moola :wink2:

Re: Tyre deflator test
Thanx Mark,
Ek's half ywerig om daai 1ste trip te doen deur die Limpopo by Pafuri sodat ek daai deflator behoorlik kan toets
Soos dit nou nog reen, mag dit dalk langer neem as wat ek beplan het :wth:

Re: Tyre deflator test
How exactly does this "magoeter" work? Is it just a pressure gauge? Or Can you deflate to exactly the pressure that you want without having to check the pressure every few seconds?

Hi Andre have a look here:shady wrote:How exactly does this "magoeter" work? Is it just a pressure gauge? Or Can you deflate to exactly the pressure that you want without having to check the pressure every few seconds?
You can deflate very fast and check the pressure whenever you want to say every 20 seconds by just pushing the back lever forward. Simple operation
Rated as the 3rd most effective deflator available

Re: Tyre deflator test
Ek dink nie ek stem heeltemal saam met hulle nie. Die twee wat hulle nr 1 en 2 rank het nie een 'n pressure gauge nie. So jy moet skat hoeveel lug jy al uit gelaat het, die unit af draai, pressure gauge opsit en dan weer die deflator as die pressure nie reg is nie of die compressor as jy hom te lank laat afblaas het. Persoonlik hou ek baie meer van die tyre deflators wat Mark hier getoets het.

Re: Tyre deflator test
Also Cassie the 2 deflators they place at the top are both permanently installed on the rims... Our deflators are not "vehicle/rim" specific....

Re: Tyre deflator test
Good idea as a gift, Mark! I have only one left! (Can order more if required though).
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
