Missing key features
Makita dropped the ball. This is nothing more than an expensive tire and ball inflator. Two big issues are:
1) No trigger lock which means you have to hold it manually at all times
2) The hose is not removable/customizable which means you're stuck with the bike tire valve clip-on
Took 2 minutes to add 5 lbs of air to a single 35" x 12.5" x 20" truck tire. Without an auto-lock trigger this will wear out your hand and fingers. It makes no sense this feature is missing because there is an auto pressure shutoff (which is a nice feature).
The hose can't be removed so you're stuck with the bike tire clip-on adapter.
Will take forever to blow up a camping mattress and remember you'll have to hold the trigger the entire time.
Unless you own a bike shop or are coaching a soccer or basketball team forget about this.
