hello and welcome today we're gonna do a review of the maxi trac
300 lpm check out this unboxing video
as it's unboxing you can see it's pretty good packaging
basic box you know outer box foam inner box what have you it's pretty simple it looks pretty good
looks all nice and contained i don't like the bag as much because it looks pretty flimsy and i need
something bigger but uh hey i could use that bag for something else but there's the unboxing video
what i like about it what i don't like about it first of all it's orange it's a lot of orange
it's not that orange but i really don't care for it i'd rather have it black or something else but
i guess maxi trac wants to make it really noticeable it's orange i don't really care
for it it's also kind of heavy i don't know it's heavier than the smittybilt i wouldn't say it's
twice the weight but it's definitely heavier kind of big and bulky i don't know it's definitely
louder like the dual compressors check out my video when i did the head to head test between
the maxi trac and the smittybilt and you can see that the maxi trac is a lot louder i actually had
to turn down the volume in the recording but i'll give you a clip here how loud it really is
and you can see it's a lot louder so it's orange it's heavy it's loud that's what i don't like too
is the connector this connector right here that guy can you imagine that each tire you
just screwed it on it probably takes 10 twists i need to turn off to check your pressure i'm
going to use this i took okay gauge but it's not very accurate well at least down to the level i like
so i had to take this off and check the pressure and put it back on
maybe three or four times per tire imagine doing that when it's hailing out
imagine doing that when it's snowing out
imagine doing that when it's raining out
imagine doing that when anytime it's just a real pain that's very very slow you can easily go to
amazon and buy quick disconnect clip on clip off much better it's about 10 bucks for two of these
get one of these get rid of that screw on thing also this hose is terrible just by handling it
there's black on my hand a little bit here and i'm not sure it's oil or something
i don't know why it's on there maybe it'll wear off over time i don't know but the hose does do
that the hose is nice otherwise but it does leave your hands a little bit black the other thing i
realized see i'm using my maxi trac is this back hose here actually started cracking
after about i don't know 20 times been used i it's only a few months old and it's definitely cracking
it's not leaking but it's definitely cracked so kind of another thing i don't like about it those
are all you know fixable you can fix the hose you can fix the hose that you use i mean personally i
don't do one tire at a time i use my multi-flate system so i don't even use this you know but
for what it is it's not bad it's just gonna leave your hands black for a while but that connector
that's the worst so it's orange it's heavy it's loud the connector and the hose i really don't
care for but what do i like about it it's fast and inexpensive it is really fast i think a comparison
i made between the maxi trac and the smittybilt in a different video you should check that out and
with the go head-to-head contest you can actually see how fast it is so i did a little chart
here so we can kind of compare they got the maxi trac 300 lpm which is what we're talking about
and the smittybilt i showed you this one but also compared to the arb twin and also the viair
400p so what do we have for these viair 400p it's about 2.3 cfm cubic feet per minute that's
the rate of which it flows 2.3 cubic feet per minute the smittybilt is 5.56 when it's more in
double the arb twin is a little bit more than that so how fast is the maxi trac 300 lpm
what is 300 lpm that's 300 liters per minute it ends up being 10.59 cubic feet per minute
so what prices i come at well the viair comes at 239 and smittybilt 165
arb twin now these kind of vary you can get them cheaper on sales and things like that but
this is the prices i just got off amazon today so they might be different tomorrow what's
the maxi trac well last time i looked 120 and that's not even the best i mean i've seen it
i bought one for about 114 and i bought the next two for about 85 because you can get deals from
napa online and they send you coupons it's like they really want you to buy their stuff so 120 is
probably the higher end you can get it at so how do you compare the maxi trac's definitely
the fastest bar none arb twin is is really good it's really quiet very mountable which
is great i really like that a lot smittybilt is it's also fast and it's pretty inexpensive
for the price or for what you get 165 is pretty fast and the viair well that's very compact i
think it's really tiny really small pretty easy to lift much lighter weight than the rest of them so
so that's it maxi trac for the win i like them so much i have three of them now
and i can continue to use them and the replace hoses if needed
but i like them a lot so maxi trac for the win thanks for watching
you
