If you’re looking for an inexpensive electric pump that’s portable and just does the job, the OutdoorMaster Cachalot ticks those boxes. Designed to be able to inflate two boards (or other similar inflatables) in a row, the Cachalot is ideal for paddle board sessions where 12V power is available.
While it doesn’t have the sophisticated cooling system of the OutdoorMaster Shark II, the Cachalot has almost every other feature of the Shark II. Like the Shark II, the Cachalot has a digital display with a digital pressure gauge that’s easy to read in any light condition, and is powered by 12V DC power from your car outlet. Moreover, the Cachalot also has a supported pressure range of 0.5 to 20 PSI, and comes with a variety of nozzles to make it compatible with almost all brands of iSUPs, inflatable kayaks, inflatable boats, and even some air mattresses. Lastly, just like the Shark II, the Cachalot also has an auto off function, and a deflate function.
While it has a few drawbacks, the Cachalot is worth considering if you need the inflation performance of the Shark II, but don’t necessarily need to inflate more than two boards in a row and want to save a little money.
