kobalt CO2

I just saw a cool new tool at Lowes, it's a 20oz CO2 tank. It comes with a regulator, hose and a box to store it in. I was wondering if 12.6 square cubic feet would be enough to air up my 285/75/17 tires from around 22psi to 35psi. by my caculations it should be able to air up about 7 tires. The whole kit is about $85 and about $8 for refills. Do you guys think this would work? If there is something I may be overlooking please let me know.

Re: kobalt CO2

It may work, but you need to remember that as soon as pressure equalize, you won't be able to air up the tire anymore. So your calculation of 7 might be a bit generous. Refill is kind of expensive for 20oz. I fill a 10lb tank for $17.
