They make one that is 12V & 120V rechargeable, so you don't have to have it
plugged into the cig lighter use it. Comes with a dial pressure guage built
into the body so you don't have to stop and check your pressure with a
handheld guage. And it has adapters for inflating things other than tires.
Also has a 12V outlet on it, so you can charge it up and plug a 12V
accessory into it without having to run off the cig lighter. Or you can
daisy chain - plug the compressor into the daisy chain to charge while
driving and plug your Passport into the 12V outlet on the compressor for
use while driving.

My first one lasted 4 years and died only because I accidentally left it on
and drained the battery, which was then unrecoverable.

Runs about $35 - $40

Craftsman makes one or two - haven't tried them. BTW, mechanical Craftsman
products do not have the lifetime warranty. If you can find the Campbell
Hausfeld, I'd go with that.
