Einhell Air Compressor - 18V - 11 Bar - PRESSITO 18/25 - 4.0ah Kit
The Einhell PRESSITO 18/25 Power X-Change Air Compressor offers versatility with 3 distinct modes....The Einhell PRESSITO 18/25 Power X-Change Air Compressor offers versatility with 3 distinct modes. Its high-pressure pump can reach up to 11 bar, making it perfect for inflating balls, bicycle tires, and car tires. For larger items, the low-pressure pump is ideal for air mattresses and pool inflatables. Deflating is also an option with the low-pressure suction feature. The clear two-line LCD display shows actual and target pressure in bar, psi, or kPa, and the pump automatically shuts off once the desired pressure is achieved. A convenient push-button switch allows for high-pressure inflation without needing to preset the pressure. All components are designed for practicality; hoses can be stored in integrated compartments, and the unit's light weight and practical handle make it easy to transport. It comes with a 3-piece adapter set (ball needle, tire adapter, and conical adapter) housed in a dedicated storage compartment. This unit is part of the Power X-Change family, requiring one 18V battery. The kit includes one 4.0Ah battery.
This Einhell PRESSITO 18/25 Power X-Change Air Compressor is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners needing a versatile solution for inflation tasks, offering convenience and precision across three distinct modes. Its primary benefit is the ability to handle both high-pressure (up to 11 bar for tires and balls) and low-pressure (for inflatables) tasks, along with a deflation function, all controlled via a clear LCD display with auto-shutoff. A potential caveat is the reliance on a single 18V Power X-Change battery, meaning users without existing batteries may need an additional purchase.

FAQs
What is the maximum pressure the compressor can reach?
The high-pressure pump can reach a maximum of 11 bar (approximately 160 psi).
Does this unit come with a battery?
Yes, this kit includes one 4.0Ah 18V Power X-Change battery.
Can I use this compressor to power air tools?
No, this compressor is designed for inflation and deflation tasks only and is not suitable for powering pneumatic tools.
How do I switch between modes?
There are dedicated buttons or settings on the unit to select between high-pressure inflation, low-pressure inflation, and low-pressure deflation.
How long does the battery typically last?
Battery life depends on usage. A 4.0Ah battery can typically inflate multiple car tires or several smaller items before needing a recharge.
What types of items can I inflate with the low-pressure mode?
The low-pressure mode is best suited for large volume, low-pressure items like air mattresses, pool floats, and inflatable toys.
Where can I store the adapters?
All included adapters are stored in a dedicated compartment on the compressor unit itself for easy access and security.
Troubleshooting
Unit will not turn on
Ensure the 18V Power X-Change battery is correctly inserted and charged. Check if the battery contacts are clean.
Low pressure output
Verify the correct mode (high or low pressure) is selected. Check hoses and connections for leaks. Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged.
Automatic shut-off not engaging
Confirm that a target pressure has been set on the LCD display before starting inflation. Ensure the selected pressure unit (bar, psi, kPa) is correct.
Deflation function is slow or ineffective
Ensure the unit is in low-pressure deflate mode and the hose is securely connected to the valve. Check for any obstructions in the hose.
