Where to buy Aquaglide Accelerator:
Amazon
Made specifically to inflate paddle boards and inflatable kayaks, the Aquaglide Accelerator is a 2 stage electric air pump.
It is very portable, has a unique ergonomic handle, and features an automatic shutoff and deflate function.
The Aquaglide Accelerator is a 12V electric air pump that can be easily attached to your paddle board or kayak and has a number of features that make it a great addition to your paddle boarding arsenal.
Firstly, this pump is easy to use and setting the pressure you want it to inflate to is intuitive and convenient. Like the Shark II and the NIXY Ventus, the Accelerator has an automatic shutoff that triggers once the desired pressure is reached.
It also has a handle that increases its portability and makes it easy to move around.
It’s important to note that the Aquaglide Accelerator is not made to have a long runtime and will need a 10 minute break for every 20 minutes that it is on, otherwise it will overheat and shut down.
Given that this pump comes with 3 valve adaptors, it will not be compatible with all inflatables but it should work fine with most major inflatable paddle boards and inflatable kayak brands.
Things we like:
-
Straightforward usage -
Automatic shutoff when inflated to the set pressure
-
Convenient handle increases portability
-
Long cord for attaching to vehicle
-
It can also deflate your paddle board
Things we don't like:
-
Not designed for continuous use and needs a 10 minute break every 20 minutes -
Doesn’t use a battery so needs a car or jump pack to work
-
Not compatible with all inflatables
