The Gili electric paddle board pump is a high quality pump that comes with an intuitive digital gauge that makes selecting the pressure simple and convenient.
This is a great accessory to purchase when buying a Gili Sports paddle board such as the Gili Air 10’6”.
With a carry handle designed to increase portability, this electric paddle board pump from Gili is an excellent choice for a reliable and efficient pump that can both inflate and deflate your paddle board.
It’s the same as Aquaglide’s pump, probably made in the same factory. Both are good.
This pump comes with a variety of nozzles making it ideal for inflating different types of inflatable vessels, including kayaks and some boats.
The Gili electric pump also features an automatic shut off that is not only triggered when it reaches the selected pressure but also when the pump is about to overheat.
A downside is that the pump has a usage time of about 20 minutes, meaning that you’ll have to allow for it to cool down before using it again. This is more than enough time to inflate 1 or even 2 paddle boards to 15 PSI but if you try and push it further it will automatically turn itself off.
