The Alpenblow Lux by Alpenglow Gear is a more powerful and feature-rich version of the Classic Alpenblow inflator that won Backpacking Light's 2025 Cottage Gear innovation award. The Alpenblow Lux is more than just an ultralight sleeping pad pump; it's also a reading light, a sound machine, and has a deflate port. The Alpenblow Lux supports thicker pads and extra tent illumination for all-around premium performance. Just hook this ultralight micro inflator up to your phone or power bank and sit back and relax (or set up the rest of camp) while it does the work for you.
You might still need to add an extra breath or two at the end to get to a firmness that you enjoy on your mattress pad.
Features:
- Single-press button lets you cycle through 8 settings (just press the triangular logo)
- Inflate/Deflate: lights begin glowing once the pad is full and air is no longer flowin
- Low, medium, and high brightness lamps
- Candle flisker light (for when you want a cozy flame where you can't have one)
- White noise machine
