Testing Cheap Tools That Hit or Miss: Does This $39 Inflator Measure Up?
What happens here
The host prepares to test the overheating claims mentioned in some Amazon reviews. Using a 'GENERAL IRT205' infrared thermometer, he measures the temperature of the generic LIVOWALNY inflator and the Milwaukee M18 inflator after their previous use in the speed test. The generic inflator reads 104 degrees Fahrenheit, while the Milwaukee reads 121 degrees Fahrenheit. This initial check provides a baseline before a more rigorous overheating test.
Goal: Establish baseline temperatures for both inflators after moderate use.
Tools and materials
