The Cyclami Q2 is an electric paddleboard pump that reaches up to 20 PSI. Its built-in battery lets it run without a power outlet, while an LED display, three modes and an airflow of 60 litres per minute can make preparing a board by the water easier.

Size and portability
The pump measures 198 × 149 × 76 mm and weighs 1.47 kg. Its dimensions make it easier to pack in a backpack or carrying bag, although its weight is worth considering when packing.
Performance and pressure
According to the specifications, the Cyclami Q2 has a 36-cylinder motor and an airflow of 60 litres per minute. It can inflate a paddleboard in a few minutes, although the time required depends on the board’s size and target pressure.
The maximum pressure of 20 PSI allows the pump to be used with boards that require higher pressures. A range of 12 to 15 PSI is commonly quoted for standard paddleboards, but the board manufacturer’s recommendation takes priority. Do not set a pressure higher than the manufacturer permits.
The pump can also be used with other inflatables if their valves and required pressures are compatible with it. Check the valve and the product manufacturer’s pressure guidance before use.
Display and three modes
The controls offer three modes: SUP, SET and Draw. The LED display shows the settings and current pressure, so users can monitor inflation. Follow the instructions for both the pump and the inflatable when selecting a mode and setting the pressure.
Battery and cordless use
The built-in battery has a capacity of 12,000 mAh. Cordless operation means there is no need to connect the pump to a power outlet while inflating, which is particularly useful by the water. The battery provides power for several inflation cycles; the number depends on board size, target pressure and battery charge.
The Cyclami Q2 is a portable option for preparing recreational and more demanding paddleboards, provided the required pressure does not exceed the pump’s capacity.
