Or any $100 pancake compressor - they're all just about identical. 6 gallons, usually 150psi, made by Craftsman or DeWalt or Rigid or Porter-Cable or Kobalt or any number of others.

I got 3 gal air compressor in garage I’ve used once in 10 years down here. Too much hassle to pull it out find air hose, connect it and pressurize it. When all got to use the hand held one. I topped off my car, golf cart, scooter as. Two wheel dolly truck and still had plenty USB internal battery life.

Perhaps a simple solution. Assuming you do not have a flat where being a tubeless tire you break the seal to the wheel; you can top up your car or cart tire
with a hand pump. The ones with a pressure gauge cost like $20. Aside as they clamp to the valve stem, Access to the lock lever can be difficult. Another simple solution you can buy valve stem extenders for like two bucks. Put it on, attach the hand pump and pump up the tire. More time to type it than to do it.

I doubt it. Easy to look up online. The problem with rechargeable tools is they discharge, loose power, even if unused. It is increased by HEAT. Florida is HOT. Stored in car. Probably hits 140 in your trunk

Costco offers one from Fanttik: S100 APEX Powerful Portable Air Pump & Tire Inflator with Power Bank, Black. $50 online or $40 in store if available. I have several of these and they work well. Small, portable and automatically shut off when the desired air pressure is reached.
