When you're touring the most remote corners of Australia, your gear has to work the first time, every time. Karly and Jacob Denman of the Waking up in Aus team have been crossing the country in a fully kitted touring rig with a Jedair Oasis compressor mounted in the side access compartment of the vehicle, and they took the time to share how this 12V air compressor has held up on the road.
20 to 80 PSI in 7 Minutes: Real-World Tyre Inflation
In their video, Karly and Jacob walk through the real-world performance of their Jedair compressor. The standout figure: inflating a single tyre from 20 PSI right up to 80 PSI in 7 minutes. For anyone who has stood beside their rig in 40-degree heat watching a budget compressor crawl up the pressure scale, that kind of throughput turns an hour-long chore into a quick stop.
Built for Remote Australia Touring
Touring Australia means dropping tyres for sand and corrugations, then airing back up before hitting the highway, sometimes hundreds of kilometres from the nearest service station. The Jedair Oasis compressor in the Waking up in Aus rig is paired with a MORRFlate multi-tyre inflation kit, letting them air all four tyres at once and get back on the road faster.

Here is a closer look at the Jedair compressor doing what it does best: delivering serious airflow in the middle of nowhere.
The Same Touring Compressor, Available Now
The compressor Karly and Jacob run is from the Oasis XDM range: heavy-duty, oil-lubricated 12V and 24V air compressors we supply across Australia. The XDM3000 12V is the pick for most touring rigs, while the XDM4000 12V steps up to 100% continuous duty for commercial and heavy-use setups.

Big thanks to Karly and Jacob Denman from Waking up in Aus for taking us along for the ride. They share life on the road full-time from a fully kitted touring rig, crossing remote Australia with their dogs Dodge and Rocky.
