This one from DeWalt might work,
https://www.dewalt.com/product/dcc02...s-air-inflator

I haven't used it but think it might be slow, I personaly like to use a 2 stage SUP pump that came with the wife's inflatable.

when I searched for SUP pumps I did see 12v electric pumps cheaper than the dewalt option.

Re: Dinghy pump advice

We use an Airhead 12V pump. https://www.amazon.com/AIRHEAD-High-...810295975&th=1 It draws a little to much current to use the usual lighter type 12V outlet, so we have one trolling motor outlet for it just inside a port. The advantage of it is that there is a larger market for water toys than for inflatable dinghies resulting in lower prices.

We use a Ryobi 18 volt plus 1 portable pump, uses the same 18 volt battery for many other handy portable tools/accessories.(drill, fan, spotlight etc.) Also have 12 volt charger for it.

Re: Dinghy pump advice

It's not small, 12 Volt, or rechargeable (unless you count the human operator), but I've been using this manual dual-action hand pump since 2019 for my dinghy and other inflatables since 2019 and have been very happy with it. It fits in my dinghy's bow locker
