The lightest ever! Pico Gear 8g Lightweight Air Pump (2026)

This is an ultralight sleeping pad inflator designed for lightweight camping/hiking enthusiasts. It can be powered via a mobile phone or a power bank's Type-C interface, and fully inflating the sleeping pad uses less than 1% of an iPhone's battery capacity. It typically takes 2-5 minutes (depending on the sleeping pad's model/size), and the noise it produces is virtually inaudible, allowing you to quietly set up camp while waiting for it to inflate.

Note: Depending on your preference for mattress firmness, you may need to perform several additional "inflation operations" to achieve the desired firmness.

Basic parameters

Specifications: (When used with NeoAirXLite)

Weight: 8.2 grams (‡0.1)

Power: 2.0W

Voltage: 18mAh 5V

Service life: 30,000 hours

Additional notes regarding power and pressure:

To power the air pump using a mobile phone, it must be of the Type-C standard, which includes most Android devices.

And the latest iPhone (15 and later). Any power bank with 5V output is also compatible.

Inflating a standard-sized pad will consume less than 1% of an iPhone battery, or 0.25% of the NiteCoreNB10000's capacity.

During testing, most lightweight air pumps required an additional 1-2 inflators. This device is suitable for lightweight sleeping mats but is difficult to inflate kayak rafts and oversized mattresses. If you require a specific inflating time, please choose carefully.
