Pretty expensive pumps there even though they are listed I think in Australian dollars

$189.99 for the small one and charge is only good for 2 tires (Only works on Presta valves)

Larger one good for Presta and Schrader $249.99 and charge is good for 6 tires

Exchange rate infoAUD to USD https://www.x-rates.com/calculator/?...o=USD&amount=1

Now if it will also work with an external USB battery source than that makes it worth another $10

Who in their right mind would actual pay what they are asking for something like that? Remember, Li-ion batteries lose capacity after just a couple years, not to mention what happens if the unit shorts out or fails due to some internal problem..bad battery, seal leak...etc.

If the Fumpa took drop-in 18650s, SIGN ME UP. But as it is, $100 is WAAAAAAYY too much. Even if you could only fill one tire per 18650, they would be like CO2s you could use a few hundred times. I'm 100% for that idea. Built-in battery? Yeah, nah.

The Fumpa is nice, but I agree it costs too much. Let the rich dudes buy them to bring the price down for the rest of us. I'm glad for this progress.
