If you can’t decide whether 12V DC or 240V AC is best for you, why not get a Coleman Quickpump Rechargeable and take both options with the added benefit of a built-in rechargeable lead-acid battery.
Suitable for inflation and deflation of large and small inflatables, the Quickpump rechargeable comes with Boston and pinch valve adaptors, as well as both 12V DC and 240V AC charging adaptors for the ultimate in air pump versatility.
Will this fit a typical Exped and Sea to Summit style mattress fitting? We have the Sea to Summit Comfort Deluxe Self Inflating Double Sleeping Mat.
G'day David,
Yeah, absolutelly. It won't click on or attach for hands free pumping, but you'll be able to hold it against the valves whilst it does its thing.
If you want something that will, check out the Flextail Max Pump 2 Pro.
I have a tube I need to connect it to which then feeds into a Kayak with a spring loaded valve. It looks like this tube fits over approx 21mm outlet In the photo of the Coleman Qucickpump there are 2 nozzles. Can you tell me the outlet size of the one on the right hand side of the photo ( not the pointy one). Thank you.
G'day Bob,
This has a diameter of 17mm, however, based on what you've described this pump will not be suitable for an inflatable Kayak.
The flow rate and PSI is not high enough to inflate the Kayak to a functional pressure.
Can I use it while plugged in to power? Or do I have to charge the battery first, disconnect then use it?
G'day,
Yes, this unit can run either on its own, or whilst connected to charging cables.
Will this pump up the Darche airvolution swag?
G'day Jack,
No, this quick pump won't inflate the airvolution swag as it has different fittings. We'd recommend sticking with the supplied hand pump, as this will safely inflate the swags air poles in around 20 seconds.
I’ve missed placed the charger cables do you sell those separately thanks
G'day Daniel,
Unfortunately, we're not able to get our hands on replacement charger cables from Coleman. We'd recommend grabbing some generic replacement charger cables from Jaycar, or a similar type store.
From my understanding this will charge faster via 240v vs 12v? If so what is the wattage of the charging unit as I may look to run this through an inverter and need to determine its power draw, cheers
G'day Brad,
These have finally come back instock & I've check on this one for you.
Basically the 240vDC cable is regulated to put out exactly the same amps as the 12vDC cable (7.5V / .2A) so charge time will be exactly the same off both.
I've read the questions about it's overall ability to charge a few mattresses away from the charge, but can I ask how long it could potentially run in one go, continuously, before needing a charge? Cheers!
G'day Amber,
Unfortunately, Coleman doesn't really provide this information, and short of fully powering it up, turning it on, then setting a timer and watching it, we're not entirely sure. What we can tell you is that our trusty in-store model doesn't need to be charged up very often, and we use it to inflate and deflate mats multiple times each week. I'd be pretty confident in the pump running for half an hour or longer, but unfortunately we don't have any data to support that.
Hi, Will this fit the valve on the Monstamat to help deflate it? Trying to find something to make it more compact when rolled up.
G'day Mick,
You could use this to help you deflate your Monstamat, however it won't have the capacity to vacuum out anymore air than you'll be able to by flipping the valve to deflate and folding it in half and pushing out as much air as you can before rolling it up.
Will this pump work on the Coleman Supportrest Elite Pillowtop Queen Airbed?
G'day Micahel,
We've had a chat to Coleman and their advice is - it is not recommended to use a 12v pump as its designed to be inflated with the inbuilt 240v pump. So, it's not a definite 'no' but they just don't recommend it.
Have lost my 12 volt charger. Can I get a new one?
G'day Stephen,
Unfortunately, these chargers are not available for separate purchase. Your best bet will be to head somewhere like Jaycar who should be able to help you find a generic cable that will suit.
Does this fit the valve on the aerobed? The standard pump is garbage/broken so I'd like to replace it with something (anything) else.
G'day Michael,
The Aerobed Active Mattresses have quite a specific valve on them that will only work effectively with the supplied pump. You could sort of use the Quickpump Rechargeable but it won't create a very good seal.
hi there Could you tell me if this coleman quick pump rechargeable 240v pump is able to not only inflate air beds but also > suck air our of VacBag/SpaceBag. I use the vac bags all the time to store and transport our clothing because they suck down to nothing but am yet to find a pump that will suck out all the air without breaking. for obvious reasons, i can't take my Dyson camping ;)
G'day Jade,
Great question, unfortunately, the Coleman Quickpump Rechargeable 12V/240V isn't designed to act as a vacuum, it really just pushes the air in or out of an airbed, unfortunately, I think if you tried it would likely break. Maybe a tiny portable Dyson!
Hi, if the battery life of this pump has expired can we still used the 12v and 240v power source?
G'day Pete,
I've just double checked this with one of our long-term camping staff members. He said that unfortunately being a lead acid battery, you need a charge in the battery for it to work, so once the battery dies, you'll need to charge it again before using it, you can't just run it straight off of the 240 or 12v power.
how long is the dc cord? I don't want to have to drag the whole mattress inside the car to pump it up. Also is it well built? the last 2 pumps I have bought have broken very easily
G'day Welly,
Cord length is 1.5m however as the pump has a rechargeable battery, you won't need to have it connected to a power cord. So you can take it and use it wherever you need to.
We've found these pumps pretty reliable and don't often see many returns because of manufacturing issues.

G'day Adam,
We've never sold or worked with Kayacat so I honestly couldn't answer your question with confidence. I think you're best option would be to speak to them and enquire in regards to what kind of pump is required.
Does this unit come ready to use ir does it require charging
G'day Darren,
There will be a little bit of power in the Coleman Rechargeable Quickpump to preserve the battery, however, it is recommended that you give it a full charge before using for the first time.
How long does it take to charge on 240v?
G'day Mariz,
This is a tough one to answer as even after speaking with Coleman, they say there is no official timeframe. Previously we've been told that it takes about approximately 12 hours when plugged into 12v. My estimated guess would be that on 240v it would take around 6 hours. Sorry I can be much more help.
I want to use it for inflating tyres. Is there an attachment to display the current psi reading of the connected object?
G'day Greg,
Unfortunately, the Coleman Quickpumps aren't designed to generate air pressure, only air volume. There simply isn't enough 'guts' in these pumps to achieve what is required for inflating tyres or notably air tents, which is why there is no gauge.
Hi, Will this help deflate the exped megamat duo and if so does the nozzles fit the deflate valves on the mat? Also the same with the Kings queen self-inflating mat?
G’day Oskar,
The Coleman Quickpump Rechargeable 12V/240V pump sure can be used to deflate the Megamat Duo, and it should be compatible with most airbed valves.
We haven’t heard of a Kings Queen self-inflating mat, but this pump does come with a few different nozzles so there should be something to fit that mat.
Approximately how long does it take to recharge on 12v please?
G'day Bruce, great question! Coleman don't seem to list this information anywhere, so leave it with me and I'll see what I can find out for you.Â
Hi Bruce,Â
I've just spoken with Coleman and they say there is no official timeframe, but they've said that it would be approx 12 hours as it's slightly longer compared to 240V. Just to note, we always recommend that if you charge via 12V that you do it while it's running so that you don't flatten the battery of your car to be on the safe side.Â
Hi, When battery is fully drained, does it start working as soon as connected to any power source or will have to wait for battery to recharge ? Thanks
G'day Imran,Â
I've just had a look at the instructions, and they say that the pump won't operate when the charger is plugged in - so you will have to recharge the Coleman Quickpump before you use it again.Â
G'day, i see the 240 volt adapter. Just wondering if it has a 12 volt cigarette lighter adapter as well?
G'day Jono,
Yes this fantastic Quickpump comes with both the standard plug-in 240 volt cord for using where you have mains power as well as a cigarette 12 volt power adaptor for use in your vehicle.
The beauty of this premium Quickpump is that it is rechargeable, allowing you to use it where you don't have direct access to your car lighter socket or mains power. Verstility in a little red package!
Say you go on a trip and set up and pack up at a few different spots. Will this pump a queen double height durarest mattress up more than once? thanks
what is warrantee?
Hi does "Coleman Quickpump Rechargeable 12V/240V" fit "Hi-Country 4WD Mat Double"? Assume it inflates and deflates? Also free post to Mornington Vic 3931?
