What do you use to blow this up? Would an AIRHEAD AHP-120HP Hi Pressure Air Pump work?

Your right, having the pump would help!! We got this for our daughter for Christmas and my husband decided to I to the local air pump to blow ours up. I wouldn't recommend it as needless to say he exploded ours by over inflation and she never got to use it!! I would try a bicycle tire pump you can control or ask someone for those regular foot pumps ;)

It will be time consuming but I think it will work. I blew up quite a few and it did a great job. The balloons won't float like Helium filled ones but I used sticky tac and stuck them to the ceiling that way with curling ribbon tails hanging down. You could order two pumps and have another person help you blow them up.

I've never tried to blow up am air bed with it, but I think it should work just fine.

I actually got mine at a children's exchange sale and luckily it was already blown up. Because you do have to blow it up through your mouth but I'm sure a small air pump valve would work too.

A bike pump is normally used, or any air mattress can be used as well, but in an emergency you can also blow it up by breathing into it...it may take longer but it works fine.Great product and we still use if a lot.

I purchased an inexpensive pump that you plug in. Otherwise.....you will probably pass out trying to blow it up yourself!

I use a 12volt intext air matress pump. it doesn't pump it up all the way so I use the manual pump to top it off..

Tools using continuous air, or blowing, I don't think it would maintain enough pressure. Works great for nail guns, pumping up tires.

You have to have your own pump to blow the jump-o-lene up I used a air mattress pump

My husband used his,air pump from work it worked fast. You can probably use a bike pump but that might take a while.

My mom blew it up originally because we couldn't find our air pump. It didn't take her long. I also use a bike pump when necessary.

You need to buy an air pump. I have an electric one, but they do offer battery operated ones. The battery operated ones eat batteries though so if you will have electricity access, that's what I recommend. (They have some that work on car voltage.) It doesn't need to be a real expensive one. But I use mine to blow up floats and have even blown up balloons with it.

We used an air compressor! But any electric pump would work, like the ones for air mattresses or pool floaties! Just be careful with the air compressor so you don't overfill and accidentally pop one of the chambers!

The air hose has a standard quick release. You could connect any air operated device. The compressor does not have much of a storage tank so I don't think you would get a prolonged high pressure blast from it but it might work if you just need to blow something out quickly. You would be better off with a compressor with a large tank if you need lots of high pressure air for cleaning or running air tools. This compressor is really for inflating tires and does that extremely well.

We used an air compressor also. It is a pretty big float for a manual pump but one would work. as said by others, your pump would need a pointed end. This is our second season and just filled a couple days ago. Great for keeping you above water while it's still a little brisk.

I'm not sure how much pressure you need but blow 10 lbs it doesn't seem reliable. I think I would look for a different source.
