Any bicycle pump or air compressor recommendations?

Question

I googled to look for DC air compressor for the bicycle as well as for the car.  I have a mountain bike with 26" x 1.95" tires.  There are mixed reviews on the Slime 300 PSI at Amazon, one reviewer said takes a 15 Amp not 12 Amp.  Didn't make sense, but didn't want to blow a car fuse if it draws too much juice.

I would like the use the DC air tire pump or air compressor for the car, Toyota Corolla, too.  This would be used for road side emergency is why a DC air compressor.

Do you have any recommendations on air compressors  (tire inflators) based on your experience?

Buy one of the Bell bicycle pumps from Walmart they work the best and are guarantied for 3 years.  Those 12v air compressors are pretty much junk.  If you get a flat on your car they will never fill it up before the battery died or the compressor burned up.  The standard bike pump would be much better (not talking about the frame pump).

You can get the same thing but without a gage for $8-9

You do realize you're talking about using a 300psi compressor with a bike tire that will probably run at 45-70psi, right?
