Bill Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 We're getting a bit off track here but who cares. I've had a couple of electric pumps in recent years and both started off good but soon lost some of their umph and ended up in the bin. I think the problem is that they have a tiny piston that goes like the clappers and eventually looses it's compression so it takes longer and longer to blow a tyre up. My tyres run at 40 psi which is a bit higher than most cars so it was taking an age for these tiny pumps to try and get to that pressure A foot pump on the other hand has larger pistons that move much slower so I'd guess they don't wear out quite as quick, plus they're less than half the price. On the phones there's a choice of a Samsung Galaxy A10 or a Nokia Android One. Both are dual sim and unlocked (sim free) and only came out of their boxes six months ago. They're not going anywhere so I suppose it's best to wait a while until the restrictions ease off a bit, unless you're stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 considering that i don't go anywhere apart from shopping and medical stuff there is no rush bill. In fact if i didn't put the bin out once a week i would never get out the house at all. getting that way the car has the best petrol usage ever. about three months between filling up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind "ooh look at those over there jumping the queue". Doesn't bother me in the slightest. Agree. When they are vaccinated that offers all of us protection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
