Yep. Mobile phone and a spare wheel at home is best and first point of contact for me. I've used the above kit a few times on a van and the bottles are pretty good from my experiences. You need about 3 bottles for a 25 PSI pump on a car tyre. Agree though a proper compressor that goes in a ciggy lighter will be more reliable and able to get a specific pressure inflation that you're after.
