So was the "air doubler" tested at OKC? What was the result?
Also the gauge on the doubler, will it read IN pressure or Out pressure?
Was unable to attend so missed the Test.
Thanks,
Larry if it was presented at OKC I missed it also. I did see the one Tuga has and tried to get one here in Oregon since Les Schwab is big here, but the dealers here have know idea what it is.

Nope, no air doubler demo at OKC last year. You can see a picture of my installation earlier in this thread, and still very happy with it.
I do not have any problems "topping off" my tire pressures, the highest of which are my steer axle tires at 115 psi. Doesn't take long at all, however, I have never tried to fill a tire that was flat. You can easily top your tires off to 120 psi if need be. I used to haul around a small pancake compressor but that still struggled to maintain 112-113 psi in the front tires.
Tuga I think the beauty of the doubler is you can bring take a flat tire up to 80 or 90 with regular bus air then top of with the doubler. The problem with regular air compressors are the long time it takes to top off the tires.

Paul, does the pressure gauge read 'in' pressuer or 'out' pressure? I like the install on yours but my bay is stuffed with a bunch of alarm stuff. Would need to find a different location.
Paul, I thought the gauge should read 'out' Pressure , but I hooked mine up to my shop compressor for a source of air pressure and the gauge reads the same as the compressor gauge regardless of how much I increase the pressure with the knob on the doubler. I haven't tried to air up anything with the doubler but was surprised that the gauge was reading the same as the compressor gauge. Do you think I have a malfunctioning doubler?
Another thought, does the doubler gauge read 'out' pressure only with a demand for air pressure or all the time it is connected to a source?
Thanks,
