Default Battery operated device to inflate tires..

Was thinking about getting a compressor for my garage as my last one died. But someone recommended to me a device, it looks like a cordless drill, that can be used to fill air in tires.. Works on rechargeable packs..

Thought it would also be great for track days...

Does anyone have a recommendation on one? If it has a built in Tire Pressure Gauge, even better..

Thanks,

I use the Ryobi cordless inflator that works with their 18V "One+" system batteries. It has a digital gauge showing the tire pressure and you use +/- keys to dial up pressure. I have 4 batteries because of the various power tools I've bought from Ryobi. It works very well although my last track outing I forgot to charge the battery packs and after 3 other people used it on their cars, it was dead!
It also comes with adaptors to fill mattresses, sports *****, and other types of tires.
