Ring Automotive - RTC1000 12V rapid tyre inflator air compressor car pump with preset digital pressure gauge, memory function, 2 min inflation, LED light, carry case, valve adaptor kit

Product Information

It comes with a range of accessories, including adaptors for bicycle tyres, balls and other inflatables, and even a set of plastic gloves for keeping your hands clean. There are also some spare valve dust caps and a spare fuse. These are all useful, thoughtful additions, though it would be nice if there was a compartment somewhere within the device in which to keep them.

I was gifted this automatic tyre inflator from RING Automotive– a company specializing in this type of product – in exchange for publishing an honest review. So here are my thoughts about it.

How?

We liked the simple layout, although the display was a touch small. While the unit is showing its age, it was still within a few points of clinching third spot.

You have swipe left on each vehicle; then a menu option appears which says ‘Edit’ or ‘Delete’. Hitting ‘Edit’ then going into ‘Tyre Setup’ allows you to edit all the info. Many new cars come equipped with their own tyre inflators, which is a surefire sign it's worth getting one. Award-winning digital tyre inflator that rapidly inflates a 13 tyre from 0 to 35PSI in two minutes.The three-legged Draper was an unusual shape, designed to spread the load and keep it stable when working. The hose was a reasonable 50cm long and it wrapped around the device to keep it neat. However, the three-metre cable had nowhere to go, which could be a bind when storing the unit in the car, especially because there was no case. Compact for easy storage under bike seats, in panniers or in the glove compartment, the RTC2000 includes a 2 piece adaptor kit for other inflatables, as well as a storage case.
