The Aputure INFINIMAT Air Pump Max is the AC-powered electric air pump for the large INFINIMAT airbags. Aputure rates it at about 2 minutes to inflate the 8x8 clear softbox and about 20 minutes for the 20x20, and the same pump deflates the airbag when you switch its port from pumping to intake.

FAQ

Does the INFINIMAT come with the air pump, or do I need this one?

The 8x8 lamp head pack and the 8x8 and 20x20 kits each include an Air Pump Max, and the 20x20 kit has four. Buy this one as a spare, or to fill several big airbags at the same time on a large rig.

How do I deflate the airbag to fold it back into the crate?

Run the pump in reverse: set its port to intake, attach the nozzle to the softbox's air inlet and open the deflation valve. With the air out, fold the softbox in half, into four parts toward the center, fold again and roll it up.

Will I need to top up the air on a long install?

Yes, eventually. Aputure rates full inflation at about 2 days for the 8x8 airbag and about 1 day for the 20x20, so keep this pump on set for top-ups. Cover it in rain since it is not waterproof, and use BOOST mode only briefly to avoid overheating.
