Have any of you used or thought about using CO2 if strictly for tire emergency purposes? Obviously you wouldn't likely use CO2 to inflate toys, or tires on a regular basis. For routine tire inflation I use a compressor at home.


I noticed hard-core off-road guys sometimes use high pressure CO2 cartridges to re-inflate their tires after reducing pressure for off-road driving. It's exactly the same technology many of us use for bike tires on the road, except CO2 tank is much larger and requires a regulator.

Apparently it's a little more expensive (I guess that's relative) but they like it because it's faster and more convenient than a compressor. For inflating an RV tire with a slow leak on an emergency basis the cost may not be bad.

Was just curious if anyone tried one or looked into them in lieu of compressor.
