Alpenblow Micro Inflator

Alpenblow Micro Inflator is the ultralight sleeping pad pump for backpackers. Experience effortless camp setup with the Alpenblow Micro Inflator, the patent-pending ultralight pump that weighs just 8.5 grams—less than two nickels. Designed for minimalist backpackers and thru-hikers, this micro inflator quietly and efficiently inflates your sleeping pad in as little as three minutes, using less than 1% of your phone’s battery or a USB-C power bank. The Alpenblow ships with multiple nozzles to fit popular sleeping pad valves, including Therm-a-Rest, NEMO, Big Agnes, Sea-to-Summit, and EXPED.

Operating at a quiet 42 dBA—similar to gentle rainfall—the Alpenblow ensures a peaceful camp environment. Its compact size and featherweight design make it a luxury you’ll never leave behind, sparing your lungs and saving energy after a long day on the trail. Easy to power with any USB-C device, it’s perfect for modern adventurers seeking convenience without extra bulk. Note: The Alpenblow is intended for backcountry sleeping pads and does not deflate pads or inflate large items like rafts.
