A tennis and padel ball pressurizer is a more advanced, reusable version of the containers in which new balls are purchased. It preserves and restores the internal pressure of tennis and padel balls by storing them under pressure. The pressure within the container increases the pressure inside the balls. In essence, it operates in the opposite manner to what occurs when the balls are exposed to 'normal' pressure.
Pressurebox is a reusable and designed to last for many years.
The most common usage of Pressurebox by regular players with high playing standards, is to buy new balls as usual, then put them in the box each time after play, which will allow you to play with much longer and increase ball quality, from the second hour of play and onwards. In this user case, Pressurebox will usually get the pressure back as soon as one or a few days.
However, you can also use Pressurebox to inflate leftover balls and completely avoid buying new ones. In this user case, it will usually take some days before the pressure is back in the balls, and the results will depend on the condition of the balls. It is recommended to use balls with some pressure from the beginning - which usually is the case even for leftover balls that usually can be found anywear in tennis clubs - since the inflation process with these balls will be faster and more reliable.
Pressurebox is easy to use. Here is how:
1. Remove the bottom lid and insert your balls after play.
2. Close the lid strongly to ensure that it is sealed airtight.
3. Press the main switch and leave it in the on-mode until the next time you play. Pressurebox will automatically build up and maintain the correct pressure.
4. Before opening Pressurebox again, shut off the main switch, press the deflate button on the lid. Open the lid, take out your pressurized balls, and enjoy!
Yes, the pressurebox is compatible with most standard tennis and padel balls. They are designed to be versatile and fit different brands and models.
While the longevity of tennis ball pressure depends on various factors such as playing style and ball quality, it's useful to provide a comparison. Without a Pressurebox, approximately 20% of the ball's pressure can be lost after just an hour of play, with further gradual decreases over time.
In contrast, when using high-quality tennis balls like Tretorn Series + with a Pressurebox, the playing experience remains close to that of new balls even after several matches. Even after ten times of play, the bounce height usually remains good.
It's important to note that individual experiences may vary, and the balls may show some wear and tear after prolonged use, such as the logo becoming less visible. However, in most cases, the playing experience remains satisfactory even after extended use. For padel, the impact on ball felt is even less, leading to an even longer playing time."
- No manual pumping is required for the container each time.
- More importantly, the automatic sensor ensures consistent pressure in the container and allows the Pressurebox to add more air when the box's air pressure decreases, maintaining constant pressure. Why is this important? First, all pressure containers experience some leakage. Second, when placing used balls inside, they naturally reduce the air pressure within the container through diffusion. Due to both factors, new air must be pumped in to ensure that the container's air pressure always remains higher than that inside the balls. Without this, which is often the case with less advanced products, it simply doesn't work as effectively.
It is important to store your container in a clean and dry condition to extend its life.
By using our Pressurebox you can extend the life and performance of your tennis and padel balls. This will save you significant amounts of money on your ball consumption and reduce the waste of disposable balls, making it a more environmentally friendly solution.
Tennis balls typically have an internal pressure of around 14 PSI, but
our tennis ball pressurizer has a higher pressure to compensate for
pressure loss during play.
Padel balls typically have an internal pressure of around 12 PSI. Our padel ball saver has a higher pressure to compensate for pressure loss during play, ensuring you can keep smashing those winners

How-to-Guides and Solutions
Please try the steps below if you are experiencing one or more of these problems:
- The product is leaking air
- The compressor restarts often
- The battery life is shorter than expected
1. Ensure that you are using the product in on-mode, and that you have closed the lid firmly. The product is generally more airtight the harder the lid is closed, but don't close it so tightly that it's difficult to open again.
2. Check that the threads of the lid and cylinder are clean and that no dirt is stuck.
3. Take out and adjust the loose rubber O-ring on the inside of the lid, using this quick guide.
4. If none of the above works, use this quick guide to adjust the top part.
If the problem persists, please reach out and let us know how the performance of the product changed for each of the steps 1-4. This information will be required for us to understand the issue.
For any problems related to electronics, try these steps:
1. Leave the device off overnight.
2. Recharge the device until all four lights stop flashing. This will reset the device.
3. Ensure the device is disconnected from the charging cable before attempting to use it.
4. If the device doesn't start,firmly tap the compressor part of the box with your hand immediately after the click and/or after turning on the product. This should help if the pump is stuck for some reason.
5. Try removing the silicone cover and using the device without it. A misplaced cover could potentially block the air inlet.
6. Contact us with a video illustrating the issue with the product without the silicone cover, including the numbers on the lid & attach your receipt/order confirmation.
Answer: For ease of opening, make sure not to close the box too hard.
If you have closed the lid hard and are having trouble opening it, there are a few tricks that you can try.
- First, make sure that you have deflated the box. If you still can't open it, try using a glove (skin gloves give the best grip), towel, or ask someone strong to help you.
- If it still does not work, try to gently knock with a spoon around the lid (this reduces friction), and then try to open.
- Remove the silicone cover for better grip. Just push it up, and it can be removed. For the next time, check the inside of the lid for dirt and follow the steps for airtightness and close the box softer.
- If you are still having problems to open the box, let us know, and we will help you out.
Situation: The balls are too hard. Solution:Since the pressure inside Pressurebox is higher than the internal pressure in tennis & padel balls, the balls can sometimes get too hard if they are in the box for long. However, this is an easy problem to solve. Just open the box some time before you play, and the balls will get softer, as long as they are not stored under pressure.
Situation: The balls are not hard enough. Solutions: If the balls used are too soft & old initially, it may take some time to restore the pressure. It is advisable to use balls with some pressure from the start and utilize the Pressurebox frequently in between each session to maintain optimal pressure.
