ARB ARB600 E-Z Deflator with Bar/Psi Recovery Gear

The quality wasn't as solid as all the reviews suggest, slow shipping.

If you're wondering if the $40 deflator comes with the "recovery bag" clearly included in the title "ARB ARB600 E-Z Deflator with Bar/Psi Gauge Include Recovery Gear Bag" and shown in the photos... it does not. After receiving my order, I asked the seller (Trends Auto) about it and they didn't answer my question and instead referred me to Amazon.This is a well reviewed deflator and I'm sure it works great, but I think the description is very misleading. I spent a little more on this one (instead of around $30 on a Boulder Tools one with great reviews) thinking it came with the bag, so I'm a bit disappointed it didn't and even more disappointed in the non-answer when I asked about it.It's probably still worth the $40 but just be aware it only comes with that little pouch and not the larger bag in the photos.

This thing works great. As long as you know what this actually does then this is the product for you while airing down. This removes the valve core allowing air to rapidly leave your tire, which is a huge advantage while out having fun; every minute counts. And having a gauge to display just tops those other brands where you have to detach the item and then attach a gauge to check. This is much simpler. I bought two!

i bought this device after seeing someone using it on youtube. Being a long-time offroader, I realized this was something that had great potential. Although its gauge only goes up to 60psi and my 3/4 ton tires are filled to 70psi, it did a great job at quickly and accurately airing my tires down to 25psi, perfect for beach driving in NC. I meant to practice at home with it before I left but I ran out of time so first use was at the ramp to the beach. By the time I got to the last tire I had it figured out.1. make sure its properly threaded all the way to the base of the stem being careful not to cross-thread.2. feel for the valve to fully unseat before you activate the collar that allows air to escape.3. Use a stopwatch to determine how long it takes to get to your desired psi (01:30 in my case). That way you wont waste time stopping and starting to check pressure.The gauge was accurate when compared to a digital gauge.

Unfortunately, I did not test it before the return window (missed by two days), so now I am stuck with a piece of junk that I can use my fingernail to release air from the tires at a faster rate. The gauge does not read correctly - states I have 20 lbs, when the tire really has 36 lbs. The gauge is useless. I relied on positive reviews and should have did more research. Thought ARB was a reputable company. I'll think twice when buying Overland equipment.
