(And Why Every Bakkie Owner Needs One)
It was 7:30 PM on a Tuesday. Sarah had just finished her shift at the hospital in Pretoria. She walked to her bakkie in the parking garage, kids waiting at home.
Click. Click. Click. Dead battery.
She'd left her lights on that morning. Now, in an empty parking garage, phone at 15%, no jumper cables, no one around to help.
In South Africa, this isn't just inconvenient. It's a safety risk.
She had two options: Call roadside assistance (R500, 2-hour wait in an unsafe area) or ask a stranger for help (in a deserted parking garage).
What she WISHED she had was sitting in her colleague's bakkie two floors up.
A device that would have started her car in 4 minutes. No other car needed. No strangers. No waiting in the dark.
This is why 12,000+ South Africans now keep the Smart Pump Xtreme in their cab.
Keep it in your bakkie's center console — always ready when you need it

Lumeo Air Vac is still my absolute favourite travel accessory! ✈️🌍 As a serious over-packer, it has honestly made travelling so much easier. It saves space, keeps everything organised, and is perfect for fitting more into a compact bag. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves travelling — especially fellow over-packers! 😂❤️ Definitely a must-have travel accessory! 🧳✨
So far so good. First use so time will tell if the swivel wil hold up. On arrival noticed one of the chairs is missing the cap covering the centre bolt. (Hope it will e replaced?)Also a small pouch hanging under your legs from the front off the chair would be a great addition to store stuff. Ie glasses or your phone. Wil definitely modify mine.
Easy pack for breakaway.
I purchased my chair and it arrived about a week ago. I wanted two but I decided to get one and see if it was suitable for another. In my haste to unpack the item I did not pay attention to the top extensions. I was very disappointed, until I really looked properly at the chair. My mistake. wow. We are seniors and only now starting this camping trip, we recently purchased a Lumeo air mattress x 2 which were great, so now to complete our gear I will order another chair. Thankyou Zak, oh and your delivery time is spot on. Kind regards, Trevor.
Great quality and practical. Using it for my trip to Cape Town end of the month. Welldone Lumeo with another fantastic product.
so far great, my first travel is next week - that is my test.
well firstly id like to say, the order was quick, easy and efficient. i ordered it in the morning and it was delivered a few hours later, the product itself, is amazing and works very well, it cools you down in remote areas. I have already started ordering other goodies from lumeo knowing how good this 1 product is.
The best bag you could ever have for all your needs. Am certainly buying each for every member of my family.
I am quite amazed with this fan. It is quiet, working smoothly and so convenient because you can move it wherever you want it.
Perfect
I’m so impressed that I’m going to order a few more sets — this tool makes an awesome birthday gift!
The Mattrass is compact yet dynamic and perfect to fit in my Jimny for all my camping trips ⛺️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lumeo Bright Buddy Keychain Light I honestly never knew how much I needed this little light until I had one! 😍 It’s compact, convenient and surprisingly bright for such a small keychain light. Perfect to keep on your keys or in your bag for those moments when you need a little extra light. Another absolute must-have! 🔦✨
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lumeo Air Vac Backpack This is the perfect piece of equipment for a serious over-packer like myself! 😂 It holds an incredible amount — I can easily fit two weeks’ worth of clothes, toiletries and even my laptop without feeling like I’m carrying my entire house. It’s practical, spacious and perfect for travelling. Definitely a must-have! ✈️
Good lighting from a compact torch
Very much happy 😊 easy use and setup for quick break-aways. Ed
Can easily be setup anywhere. No worries anymore. Ed
Absolutely blown away by it ! So many storage compartments. Padded and safe. Bag is a bit heavy but worth it for what you’re packing. I flew domestic yesterday and I still managed to have a full carry on suitcase and packed the Limeo backpack to the brim. What a HACK. Easily traveled with 20kg+- in total hahah
Best buy ever. Ed
Hi, not sure of engine size, but it is a 40kva diesel generator. The battery would not turn it over. Took my jump start out , staff laughed and said it is too small. Connected it and it started first time. The were impressed and so was I.
Excellent light from such a little light . Super handy.
Absolutely stunned by the brightness and versatility of the small Lumeo Pro BrightBuddy Keychain Light. I needed to do a quick check on a computer box and it lite the area around and inside the box perfectly. As a free gift with my purchase of my Lumeo Pro Smart Pump 2.0. I am absolutely enjoying it thank you.
The product that started it all. It has been on my bag for over 5yrs now, always reliable and effective. Lumeo is consistent with quality.
I used it to inflate my vehicles tire which was a bit flat, and it did the job very effectively and fast, with easy to follow instructions makes setting up a breeze. I used it to inflate my son's new rugby ball which made him happy. The selecting and setting of different pressures is very convenient for different and multiple uses. Battery life is also long lasting. The price is worth it to. Will be recommending to family and friend fore sure.
Works excellent on the shooting range for handing our of ammo during night shooting!!
Nice, powerful flashlight. Unfortunately, as is consistent with my experience of other lumeo products, it is not built to last. It outlasted the headlamp I bought with it, but only by a few months. I'm pretty sure it's just a no name torch ordered in bulk from Alibaba or Taobao with "Lumeo" silkscreened on it. Eventually the charging port came loose and fell into the torch.
Absolutely brilliant tool. Highly recommend.
Great product and easy storage
Lumeo / Zak undertook to replace my faulty pump on 6 July. But there has been no follow-up since then. My recent emails were unanswered. Colin Cane 0683664782
I'm very happy with this blow-up mattress! It was quick and easy to inflate, feels sturdy, and is surprisingly comfortable. It held its air very well throughout the night and provided a great night's sleep. Excellent value for money—I would definitely recommend it!
I work 6-6 when I get home it's dark so it's so convenient to have the light in my hand with my keys. To see what I am doing thank you
I had to switch the gas in the night where the light is insufficient. The on/off switching of the headlamp with a hand wave is great.
Good quality, slim-line beautifully constructed and made of very hardy metal. Loving it!
I use the red every night, checking the dogs are tucked in bed... without blinding them or myself!
Tripod fitting used in this instance to see in those tight spots. But three other options (magnet, own stand, lanyard) - just a BRILLiant little light!
wonderfull device to have in the car
I have attached it to my home and garage key so that when I come home after dark I can have more light and feel safer.
My Lumeo headlamp is made with quality material, works perfectly and the battery lasts surprisingly long. What is not to like?
Deflated both wheels of my caravan and pump both to 250 kpa, 6 minutes per wheel. Good dry run before I need to use it case of an emergency. Still need to test the jumpstart function but I believe it would meet my expectations. Hugo.
Very good quality and practical item
