How to Inflate an Aero Mattress With No Electricity

Aerobed manufactures a line of airbeds for indoor as well as outdoor use. Relatively inexpensive, these beds are a convenient option for those who need a place to lay their head. Usually, their beds are inflated in a few minutes with an electric air pump. However, if you are camping or don't have access to electricity, you can use a manual air pump to inflate the mattress.
