To add to the exhaustive debate, I've fitted a Blue tonge II bought on the web for £160 from Oz delivered to the UK with bracket and hose which performed well on a recent trip to Algeria. Chris had his grand erg which was about twice as quick. I was a bit paranoid about getting my pressure back to the recomended rear 48psi for a 110 where as the TLC has lower pressures. As I see it (now I've let tyres down and reinflated many times in a day) buy the best you can afford (From about £150) and don't even concider one of the plastic types (even truck man which I've now dumped) if you want to let your tyres down deliberatly for traveling. I wasn't conviced by the expense before I went.
