Has anyone used the 2 canister tire repair kit ...? I have plugged a tire using the plugs... but used an electric pump... just wondering what experience anyone has had with the cannisters/cartridges for pumping
I ran out of cartridges on a rainy night on a loney road. I always carry a small electric pump now.

Or a country song..out of cartridges on a dark lonely road - sounds like a hit!
There is more to that song: The octogenarian who opened the door was wearing a red speedo.
If you've got a pump, be darn sure it can fill an empty tire to pressure without overheating or blowing a fuse on your bike. There are a lot of junkers out there that will die the first time you use them - some overheat and seize before they can fill a tire.
(A manual pump is the ultimate reliable backup and often carried by those heading for serious boonies).
Then when you get to the convenience store and put your quarters in the machine the angled truck chuck won't fit onto your valve stem.
I carry a 12v pump.
