Air pump that will automatically inflate to a specific pressure, and stop?

I have yet to see a gauge inline with the pump be any kind of accurate at all. you have to use a good gauge to check them anyway. KB

I use an El Cheapo Campbell-Hausfeld compressor from Wally that has a tap in the line so I can apply a good pen-style pressure gauge -- That way I'm not interrupting the process to get a reading.

Kinda expensive, but the pump that Firestone uses in the Ride-Rite air springs might do what you want.

I prefer the kind that keep on pumping and I can stop them where I want them. cuhulin

A dial gauge would be easier to monitor than a pen gauge because you don't have to keep resetting the gauge by pressing in the pen to take another reading; instead you get an instantaneous continuously varying reading as the pressure increases.

What you want is a domestic version of the pumps that many gas stations have which allow you to key in the pressure that you want, in PSI and/or bar, and then inflate to that pressure and stop with a bleep to alert you - or deflate the tyre if it's already over the required pressure.
