Why does it only go up to 15 psi?

Mine accurately measures whatever pressure is in the tire up to 60 psi. Either you have a faulty gauge or you have only 15 psi in your tire.

I called the US operations, it's 15 psi. I don't know how that "rumor" got started on the internet. It's got plenty of p.s.i.

15 PSI is max in US to get UL safety rating. The Cooks article points out that though other companies say theirs goes to 15, only Fissler achieves actual 15 PSI during use.

I don't have it in front of me, but I believe it has 5 psi increments from zero to 150.

I don't know the maximum other than manufactur probably recommends 90 psi. I run 130 and it runs real good, I use it daily no problems

That's a tough one. Seems I have to actually start using slight force at about 30 PSI. My tires need 50, so from 30 to 50 it gets a bit tiring. Still not hard, just a lot of pumping. Also seems the faster I pump the better it works. Slow and steady doesn't seem to move the gauge.

MOST canning is done at 10 psi and some at 15. Why is there only an 8psi setting and not a 10?

Mine was all pressurized and ready to go. I may have checked prior to placing into service. Use an air pressure gauge suitable for 0 to 15 PSI. Check it against specs, it you need to increase pressure, use a hand pump, like a bicycle tire pump - caution do not exceed max pressure.

It is not fully adjustable from 0 to 10 psi. It is fully adjstable from 0 to 30 psi.

The gauge and the description claim 150 psi, but they both lie. I bought it to keep my RV tires at 75 psi, and it never got there. It made it to about 60 psi and then struggled to make 65. It just kept running and getting hotter and hotter, and I finally gave up before I ever saw 70. It's worthless to me, but by the time I got around to using the first time it my Amazon return window had expired. If you need to pressurize anything more than car tires, don't waste your money on this thing.

There is no indication of the maximum psi in the owners manual. If it is any indication, the dial on the pump goes up to 150 psi (with the last 8 psi in a red zone). I personally have used it up to 50 psi with no problem.

The tag attached to mine says 160 PSI as does the gauge, but I have not tried to inflate anything that high.

The max pressure says it's 150 PSI... But when I tested it got around 140 PSI! But when it's close to the 150 PSI according to the pressure gauge then it gets restarted.If you do offroading, it's a really good compressor and you can permanently install it in your truck. It can withstand water, mud... you name it... if it get's damage get another one!

Mine can run up to 125 psi but I don't generally use it that high. I can run a framing nailer or a roofing nailer at 90 psi and it operates efficiently. I have a friend that runs two guns off it at around 100 psi.

The gauge reads up to 160 psi but the label on the side states that the maximum working pressure is 120 psi. I have used it on bike tires for 100 psi but use it mostly on car tires. It can overheat and shutdown if doing tires one after another but if I let it run not connected to a tire for a couple of minutes, it seems to cool it down enough to keep from overheating.

The maximum PSI=150. It is printed on the body of the "Inflator". The guage also indicates 150 psi. I only used it to 65 psi.

I'm pretty sure it would be somewhere around 1500 psi full. Not 100% sure though.
