If you lose charge or forget to recharge the pump, can you inflate the bed while plugged into the 12v or standard outlet?

I inflated my bed once. I left it in my camper over the winter and it stayed inflated. In the spring the pump wouldn't run at all. Good for 1 inflation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, you can't! With all due respect to the other answers, they are ill-informed. The adapter cannot provide enough power to run the motor when the battery is empty. I have had many frustrating experiences waiting hours for the thing to charge just to go to sleep at night. If you need something that you can always use on-demand, avoid this model.

Yes - If you plug the pump into your car or standard outlet, you can immediately inflate your bed. It will draw power from your car battery or household electricity.

I use a 12volt intext air matress pump. it doesn't pump it up all the way so I use the manual pump to top it off..

The mattress has its own self-contained air pump which plugs into the electrical outlet. The only way you can fill it with air in India is if you have a power/voltage converter to plug in the 110Volt plug. Secondly, I do NOT recommend this item for long-term use. Mine basically exploded on/under me after about 3 weeks' use.

Its a queen and the pump is plugged into in outlet to inflate the mattress.

Yes, it's a backup pump that runs off a 12 volt deep cycle battery. It has a charger built into it to keep your battery charged and a alarm to tell you that you lost power to to the AC pump.

Excellent question. It comes with a pump that is battery operated. Since it doesn't run by electricity, I would guess a battery charger would not work unless possibly if the batteries need recharged.

No, it needs a 12 volt source. I actually bought one of those jump start boxes, and just recharge it when I was done pumping. That way I have an emergency jump start source as well. Hope this help.

Buy the Smart Air Beds rechargeable pump...battery pumps wear down quickly and eat batteries like there is no tomorrow. Smart Air Beds Rechargable Pump for Air Beds and Other Inflatables (Black)

No it does not have to stay plugged in until one lets the air out.You plug it in only to turn on the built in electric pump which fills the air bed with air and it stops automatically when filled and then you unplug it and put the electric cord in the slot at the end of the bed.

No. I chose the separate electric pump (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009PURX6/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) or you can also choose a battery operated one if you want to take the bed camping.

Yes. Go to http://www.intexcorp.com/index.php/home/airbed-furniture-pumps.html?manual=1 to select the manual of your bed and see the instructions on how to bypass the built-in pump. Basically, go to the control dial, turn it clockwise until the arrow points to the inflation mark, insert the hose to your pump and have at it. I bought power converter for the bed so I could plug it into the cigarette lighter socket and pump it up that way for camping.

Most likely it won't. These air pumps need high amerage /current which these basic dc adapter are not build for, this would give less than one amp current( please check amperage on both devices)voltage would match but current would not give enough power to blow air to fill up mattress. I tried emergency tire inflator with negative results. Check what others experienced. Mine may be an odd case

The pump comes with the bed. It also comes with the wall charger and a car charger. Not quite sure how well the car charger works as I have never used it and it needs to be plugged in for 12 hour charge to fully charge. BE SURE TO PLUG IN AND CHARGE BEFORE FIRST USE!

No, Sherrie. I do not believe you can inflate an air mattress with a power outlet. However, I think you may have a bit more luck plugging an electric air pump and into this outlet and inflating your mattress that way.

To inflate it, you plug it into a wall. I don't have a charger with mine. Mine requires an outlet with electricity in order to inflate.

Nope - no pump. That was an extra 30 bucks - picked up a Coleman 120v. This is seriously a great bed though. The intex pump would have been crap anyway.

No, the inflatable mattress does not have to be plugged in until you let the air out. However, when you first inflate it, I would suggest you keep it plugged in to make adjustments until the fabric settles in. I would suggest that, if possible, the mattress be inflated a few days before you actually need it.
