What's a decent electric inflator that suits Duotone valves?
Been very happy with my Airbank puffer pro and a bunch of the local crew are using them too now.
It comes with a bunch of valves I don't use Duotone so can't promise it's included but if not the stand $5 duotone adapter would work with it.

Same. Also not using duotone wings but been using the puffer pro for about 3 months to inflate my wings and also the occasional inflatable sup.
Got it mainly because I suspected my manual pump pressure gauge was under-reading (it was) and now I don't even bother bringing the manual pump with me.
Have an air bank puffer, for less than a year and just died on me. Doesn't charge, doesn't turn on anymore.
A bit perplexed.
Went to decathlon and bought an excellent manual pump which imo is the best one out there. Inflates the wing really fast, feels effortless, and the pressure gauge is good. www.decathlon.co.uk/p/double-action-canoe-kayak-hand-pump-low-pressure-0-10-psi/325027/m8584855
I was convinced I was never going back to manual pumping.
Airbank has the new Pulse Pro. I would recommend it over the puffer pro. Its more silent and super compact in size. Battery is a little less but still more then enough. Pumps faster also.

Ok turns out I've got the pulse pro, not the puffer pro. So my comments earlier in the thread should be read accordingly
For inflation I use this Ryobi product
www.ryobi.com.au/products/air-inflators/18v-one-inflator-deflator-tool-only
I have to gerry-rig two hoses to connect to my Duotone, but I will fix that one day.
I just use the inflator to get close to the right pressure then quickly switch to the Duotone hand pump to get it exact.
While it can't be trusted on the exact pressure for the wing, I trust it to get the pressure right on my car tyres.
So if you have other 18v one products I recommend it.

The main benefit by far of using a name brand electric kite/wing/SUP pump is they are very accurate (they claim to be within 0.2 psi). Hand pump gauges are not even remotely accurate.
