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

Product Information

Smart storage case allows you to charge the inflator whilst still in the bag, with storage for cable In the box you get the inflator as well as a carrying bag and a bottle cage attachment so you can carry it on your bike. The unit is charged via a standard USB cable that's supplied. The RTC2000 is ideal for cars, motorbikes, bikes, scooters and other inflatables and can top up a car tyre in under 3 mins and a bike tyre from flat in under 2 mins. A digital autostop feature automatically stops the inflation process once the desired pressue is reached meaning you don't need to worry about over inflation. This is definitely a top-of-the-range item, but if you’re the sort of person who regularly uses an air compressor then the RTC1000 is well worth a look. Although, if you're looking for something cheaper, the RTC200 is another of Ring's inflators in the new range - but it sits at less of a premium price. The unit is small enough to keep in your boot and comes with its own case to keep the dirt out of your car. The 12v connector can be neatly wound away on a spindle, saving the normal tangle you get yourself into. The 3.5m lead isn’t perhaps as long as some on the market but can do the job of reaching the tyre furthest away from the in-car power supply.

Obviously, extras like a light or a digital display would make a tyre pressure far more useful. However, at this price, Ring's offering does exactly what it says on the tin.
