My cheapy one was this one:

Walmart.com: Slime - Portable 12 Volt Tire Inflator with Built-in Gauge and Light: Automotive

After a few minutes of running, the tip of the cigarette lighter plug was so hot that it caused first degree burns. Eventually something inside the unit burned up, so I replaced it with another cheapy from somewhere else.
