Cliff,By air bags I mean suspension air bags, they are added to a truck suspension  to increase load capacity, I have them in my semi tractor also.  Low rider cars also can have them and that is where the pumps come from.Hank

 Hi Antoine,Good to hear, it seems so logical, a tire pump is an even less expensive option.Hank

 HiThought about it too
I have huge mbt which can be inflated with external scuba tanks on surface or underwater by a diver with a scuba direct system adaptor. But i also Tried topping it up with shraeder valve tire inflator and it fits roughly ok on the direct system. So i ll add an electric tire air compressor in my surface kit. It could also work from inside the sub to inflate the last 2 thirds of the mbt after surfacing once i can tap external air to feed the compressor

Has anyone installed a low pressure air pump to fill MBT's when you get to the surface.  This would conserve HP air and in my case precious amps in the battery bank.  A small pump used for air bags on cars and trucks would work perfect.Hank
