Inflatable gear is all the rage these days as travelers seek new ways to save space in their luggage. Of course, packing along a pump to push some air into the gear can occasionally defeat the purpose. That’s why the MAX PUMP by FlexTail is a great alternative to traditional pumps.

The MAX PUMP is a small, nearly pocket-sized pump that allows you to effortlessly inflate just about any piece of gear that requires air. It can easily travel with you on a plane and takes up almost no room in a backpack. Whether you travel with an air mattress for camping trips or need something to inflate your floaties at the hotel pool, you’ll certainly find a good use for it. It can also be used to pump deflated or flat tires, making it perfect for cyclists.

It holds up to six hours of battery life with one charge so you never have to worry about running out of juice. We’re told it can also safely serve as a barbeque combustion assistant, if you want to risk that.

The MAX PUMP currently only retails on Indiegogo and sells for the affordable price of $34. That seems like a pretty great bargain for such a nifty tool for anyone into inflatable gear.
