Overview of Golden Snail automotive compressors: specifications, photos and reviews of models
Content
Judging by the feedback from users of Golden Snail products, the GS9228 automotive compressor is not bad, especially in the accuracy of pressure control. Additional equipment with a signal light is convenient for emergency work with the wheel in the dark. The compact shape makes it easy to find a place for the compressor in the car. Of the shortcomings - short power cables and air hose.
Having decided to use an automatic mechanism for inflating tires, inflatable furniture, watercraft and sports equipment, pay attention to the car compressor produced by Golden Snail.

The technical data are shown in the following table:
Parameter / item | Characteristic / value |
Power connector | Cigarette lighter |
Air Compression | Piston |
Productivity | 15 liters per minute |
Voltage value | 12 V |
Copper wire length | 3 meters |
Sheath material | Metal with plastic trim |
air hose | 50 centimeters |
Pressure control device | Pointer, with dial |
Color | Black |
Adapters | 3 pieces - for sports equipment, inflatable boats and mattresses |
According to reviews, this sample does not meet the declared performance characteristics, has a limited service life, incorrect pressure gauge readings and short power cable and air hose.

Developed pressure limit | 10 atm |
Type of control device | Digital LED display |
Performance | Up to 35 L / min |
Power connector | car cigarette lighter |
Compression node | Piston |
Adapters (quantity) | 3 pcs. — for inflatable chambers of bikes, balls and mattresses + 1 fuse |

Golden Snail GS9213 model
Portable compressor, equipped with an extended springy air hose with a remote high precision round dial gauge, graduated in two units of measurement - atmospheres and pounds per inch. Modular split design is convenient to transport and use a pressure gauge for easy pressure control.
Specifications are as follows:
Compressor element function | Characteristic / value |
Compression node | Double piston |
Discharge volume | 85 liters per minute |
Developed pressure limit | 30 atmospheres |
Power connector | Car cigarette lighter, battery terminals |
Electrical cable | 3 m |
air hose | About 5 meters, springy |
Type of shell | Metal, with plastic nozzles |
control device | Arrow |
