Ring Automotive - RTC2000 Digital Rechargeable Cordless Tyre Inflator Air Compressor and Electric Bike Pump with Pressure Gauge Memory LED Light Powerbank and Adaptor kit, Black

I've had 2 punctures recently, each fortunately slow ones and near enough to get home, but I got to thinking: if/when that happens again do I want to change a wheel (I'm old-fashioned enough to carry a spare), or would I rather pump it up and get to my destination and take stock there? I decided on the latter, which is why I bought this.It's small and light enough to carry with other necessities in the boot. It's obviously not of the robust construction necessary for professional use, but I was pleased to see that the one used by the guy on the YouTube video I found (the pictorial instructions that come with it are far from clear) was battered and well-used, he said it was 10 years old and had always worked perfectly.I've used mine only the once, just so that I know how to work it. I dare say that the gauge is accurate, though I use a separate one. Plug it into the outlet in the car. The lead is plenty long enough to reach all the wheels, unless you drive a stretch limo. It's important to remember to screw the nozzle on all the way until you hear the "pfft" that tells you that the valve is open, press the button (there's only one!) and wait. I must say it was pretty loud and took a good minute or so to put in 2 or 3 p.s.i. so I suppose it would take 10 minutes or more to inflate from flat but that's perfectly acceptable on what I hope will be the rare occasions when I use it.Useful, easy to use and good value.

Excellent product at very competitive price. I bought this as a like for like replacement for one I previously owned which only stopped working after 4 years of very heavy use. My experience is that this product is it is easy to use and extremely reliable and durable.

Good little inflator. Although some say it's bulky, it is in fact more compact than the one I'm replacing.It's solidly built and inflates the tyres pretty rapidly. The hose-to-valve screw on connector is in my opinion, easier to use and more secure than the snap-on lever type I had before.Three variable readouts on the bright clear screen (PSI, BAR and kPi).It's also quieter than my old one, 90db v 97db, and has neater storage for hose and cable which winds nicely back into the body, so avoiding squeezing spaghetti into a recess and having to untangle cable before useI do have a gripe though. The blurb states that 'The long 3.5M cable and 70cm air Hose make it easy to reach the tyres all around the vehicle.' This isn't the case for my car and I suspect other more recent cars which have the 12 volt socket in the boot.The only way to reach the front tyres is to feed the cable through the ski hatch and through the interior of the car. There is then very little slack in the cable which makes it awkward if there are people or equipment in the car. Another metre on the cable would ease this scenario.It may be harsh but I've just been using it in a rain/hail squall and having to open three doors and the boot while faffing about, ended up with the passengers getting pretty wet and grumpy. Nevertheless 4 stars for being a brilliant wee machine but one off for the short cable.

Have used this for my car and works very well. Pumped up tyre effectively and efficiently.Length of cable is more than enough to reach around normal sized car.Pressure to the tyre is very good and sturdiness of the actual cable and inflator is also good.Have not used enough to know battery life but it uses the 12v socket from the car and doesn’t take too much power as it pumps up tyres 🛞 quickly with excellent performance.Features like torch are nice and bright at night. Tuck away main cables and twist to store cable can be little tricky but good enough. Small area to put dust caps is useful.

This unit does exactly what it is claimed to do, bought of the back of a review in a motorcycle magazine that tested it more thoroughly than I have.I bought it to take on Motorcyle tours as it is probably not much heavier than a dozen CO2 cannisters and will fully inflate a tyre (or ten) on a full charge, also quite handy as a charger for other items like your phone if you had a total electrical failure with your vehicle only to find your phone is flat.I have since been using it to pump up car tyres on the drive, despite having a compressor in the garage, as it saves me having to move the cars around to get them to where the compressor hose will reach, although nowhere near as fast as a compressor, for topping up 2-3 PSI on a car tyre it is fast enough.
