PKS BT Threaded Big Boston Screw Valve Pump Adapter

Rick — Fri, 17 May 2024 18:34:44 +0000

This threaded big Boston valve (screw valve) pump adapter/nozzle fits on any standard kite pump hose. It works with several large Boston valves (screw valves) on the market today including Ozone (2011 and newer), and Naish, Crazyfly, and Airush (2015 and newer), and Switch kites. This adapter screws onto the top of the Boston valve for a more secure fit compared to the friction-fit adapters typically found on most pumps.

This adapter was built to fit newer model heavy duty pump hoses (2016 and newer.) The adapter does also fit older model pump hoses (prior to 2016) very tightly but does not lock in like standard OEM adapters. The adapter can be used as is or may need to be modified by filing down the tiny nub near the ridge of the adapter where it connects to the hose.

Please note, this is very similar to, but not the same as the Cabrinha adapter, Best 2008 adapter, or North 2014 and newer adapter. It will probably not work with these three kite brands.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the typical charging time for the Air Box?

The charging duration varies depending on the socket adaptor used, ranging from 2 to 6 hours. For optimal charging performance, we recommend using a 30w adaptor and a USB-C double-ended cable. It’s important to note that using a USB-C to USB-A cable may extend the charging time. leo.

Can the Air Box be overcharged?

No, it cannot. The intelligent battery design ensures that the device stops accepting a charge once it reaches full capacity. However, we advise against leaving the Air Box plugged in for more than 24 hours.

Is it possible to partially charge the batteries and still use the Air Box?

Yes, you can partially charge the Air Box in situations where the pump runs out of power, or you forget to charge it after the batteries have been depleted. This partial charge will allow you to inflate your sports equipment without harming the batteries.

Can you operate the Air Box while it’s plugged in?

Using the pump while it’s connected to a power source is not recommended, as it may cause the Air Box to overheat and become damaged.

How long can the Air Box be stored without recharging or damaging the batteries?

The Air Box can retain its charge for up to 12 months with minimal depletion and no adverse effects on the batteries. However, as a best practice, we recommend recharging the Air Box every 6 to 8 months.

Is it possible to partially charge the batteries and still use the Air Box?

Is it possible to bring the Air Box onto an airplane?

Yes, you can, but it must be placed in your carry-on baggage, in compliance with international regulations regarding lithium-ion batteries.

How many kites, wings, or SUPs can the Air Box inflate on a single charge?

On average, the Air Box can inflate 6 to 8 kites, based on a 9m kite size, 6 to 8 wings, based on a 5m wing size, and 2 to 4 SUPs, depending on the dimensions of the inflatable SUP or wing board.

Is the Air Box waterproof?

No, it is not. While the protective shock sleeve offers some resistance to moisture, the Air Box is not designed to be waterproof.
