A DeWalt 20V MAX cordless tire inflator is listed at $138.95 on Amazon, down from $179, in Bob Vila’s list of early Black Friday DeWalt deals updated on 2 November. The list does not say which version that price covers, so check whether a battery is included before you order.
DeWalt’s own page for the DCC020IB, a 20V MAX corded and cordless air inflator sold as a tool only, shows no price. Bob Vila filed the inflator under mechanics tools and automotive gear.
What does the DeWalt DCC020IB do?
DeWalt lists these features and power options:
- Power: 20V MAX battery, 12V DC or 110V AC
- Modes: high-pressure inflation with automatic shutoff, high-volume inflation and deflation
- Digital gauge for setting the air pressure
- Built-in LED light
- Onboard accessory storage and heavy-duty rubber feet
- Threaded chuck for a secure valve connection
The battery, charger and AC power adapter are sold separately. DeWalt notes that the maximum initial voltage of its batteries is 20V and the nominal voltage is 18V. In the box you get a 12V DC power cord, a high-pressure tapered nozzle, a Presta valve adapter and an inflator needle. The warranty is a 3-year limited warranty with 1 year of free service and a 90-day satisfaction guarantee.
Why is it getting attention now?
Bob Vila’s list gathers Amazon discounts on DeWalt gear ahead of Black Friday. The inflator sits in a group of automotive items with a 1/2-in. high-torque impact wrench at $196.25 (was $239.95) and a 140W power inverter for vehicles at $36.83 (was $47.99).
Against those, the inflator is a small, practical purchase for anyone who already owns DeWalt batteries. The list is a roundup, not a review, so it says nothing about how fast the inflator works. Read it as a price pointer rather than a recommendation, and judge the tool by DeWalt’s own spec page.
How much does it cost?
Prices are in US dollars at Amazon, as Bob Vila lists them.
| Item | Listed price | Regular price |
|---|---|---|
| DeWalt 20V MAX Cordless Tire Inflator | $138.95 | $179 |
| DeWalt 20V MAX 1/2-In. High-Torque Impact Wrench | $196.25 | $239.95 |
| DeWalt 140W Power Inverter for Vehicles | $36.83 | $47.99 |
DeWalt does not list a price on its product page. The Bob Vila entry does not name the model number or say whether a battery is part of the price, so match the Amazon title to the DCC020IB if you want the tool only. Prices can change at any time. The $138.95 figure is a store price at the time of writing, and DeWalt has not announced any promotion on its own page.
Who it suits
DeWalt 20V MAX owners. If you already have a battery, the tool only version is the cheapest way in, and the battery fits the same pack you use for drills and saws.
Drivers who want a car backup. The 12V DC cord in the box lets you run it from a vehicle power outlet, and the Presta valve adapter covers bicycle tires.
Garage and shop users. The 110V AC option works with the adapter that is sold separately, so it can live on a shelf with the other tools.
Who should wait. Buyers with no DeWalt battery will need a battery and charger as well. DeWalt’s page does not list a maximum pressure, hose length or weight, so check those against the tires and equipment you plan to inflate.
What is still unknown?
The sources do not state the maximum pressure, the weight or the hose length. Bob Vila does not say when the price ends. Amazon carries the inflator as a tool only, in a starter kit with a battery and in bundles, so compare the listing title carefully.
Where to check next
Open DeWalt’s DCC020IB page for the manual and specs, then match the Amazon listing title and price to the version you want before you buy.
