Best Tire Deflators?

[MojaveMat]

Hey all, what would be the best tire deflator? I won’t be deflating too often — maybe a few times a year.

I have no basis for the thought but valve core removal ones makes me nervous.

What do you all like/prefer?

I have the Staun tire deflators. Had them since 2008. Once you have them set. Just screw them on and do something until the air quits coming out.

I use the same exact kit, works great +/- 1 psi but usually perfect.

+ many to Stauns (friends swear by them, have borrowed a few times)

I have a Grit Rapid Air Deflator and love it. Ok, it is a bit finicky, but no need to fear. And the gauge is not super accurate, but for the price pretty solid. Do use it a few time before your mates stand behind you and make you nervous. Did read your post and fear, use it a few times and you will see it's nothing crazy.

Btw it is a good idea to have a few spare valves with you anyway. I have had them come in handy a few times. Of course mostly to help others..

I had not aired down before driving in the sand here in Qatar and initially I was nervous about valve removal. Now it's second nature, whipping the valve out and waiting for the escaping air to 'whistle' gets me within 2 psi of where I want to be.

Staun.

I use speedflate hooked up to all four at a time. One gauge and valve, and all four tires end up at the identical pressure. I use it to air up as well of course, speeding up my fill up by at least double. I like that the valve core stays put. I used to use a valve core back out tool, and never had a problem, but like the accuracy of this better. I certainly wouldn’t buy this if it were only for air down. It’s real value is speed airing up. With my co2 setup, I can air up all four 37’s in one minute.

speedflate

I haven't been able to get my hands on this type of system in Germany yet. The few that are imported are hellishly expensive

Another Staun vote.

If you don't mind waiting, the new coyote deflator design will probably be the best one available when it gets released. I use an arb deflator that unscrews the valve stem for faster airing down, but want to switch to the preset screw-on type when the coyote comes out. I air down my trailer too, and it takes a while to pull the valve stems on 6 tires.

Do you have a link that one can read about this new design? When is it to come out?
