Poor quality? Of course - its a Gunson product. Their R&D guys really
screwed up on this one though, not only does it work, it can be used time

What ever you use as the air source must be low pressure, around 20psi is
recommended. If you use a tyre make sure that you remember to reinflate it
afterwards.
