Tyre pump suggestions

Can anyone recommend a tyre pump for use about once a month?
On my drive to work there are enough rough bits that air slowly gets out, justlooking for a reasonable foot or electric pump as many seem to be rubbish.
Thanks.

I got a Michelin (branded with that at least) electric one that has served me for many years now. Thing is they are all Chinese made and rebranded. And as they are so cheap I’d just pick one that has the features you want. I wanted a light, digital readout and units in PSI and PA.

I looked at it then looked at another model in the sponsored models list:

It is a bit more but seems better and has the clip on connector you get at garages.

I've had 3 or 4 electric ones over the years and they've never lasted. The michelin pumps from halfords are garbage, had 2 fail in the same way in the space of 6 months. The hose goes brittle and snaps at the joint.
I now use a cheap and cheerful foot pump I've had for nearly 15 years and a RaceX pressure gauge.

Looking closer there is a Racer X gauge and double cylinder pump for less than £25, seems a good solution.
thanks everyone.
