Review: A perfectly adequate, functional device at an affordable price. - Overall, I'm well pleased with this purchase and recommend it as a "good to have" in your car boot. Bought this a replacement to my old halfords twin barrel footpump which started to show sqeaking mouse-like traits. Was at first a little suspicious of it's capability and endurance due to the price ( paid around Β£10 for it ) which was less than some of the manual pumps I looked at. The expression "No Brainer" is well suited to this compact compressor - but that's exactly what this is. Out of the box the unit dimensions are retained since it cutely self contains the 12v cigarette lighter style plug/cable and the air line is also hidden away in it's own compartment. Unlike some units, where it is almost impossible to return the cables and hose into their respective 'tidy holes', this unit is simple to repack, put back in it's box, and it takes up very little storage room. The other features I liked was the unit has an On/Off button and a screw-in arline connector which seemed far better than the usual "trigger cap" style valve connectors. Operationally - yes it's probably a bit slow, although I have nothing of the same to compare it against, but certainly does the job efficiently, (I wouldn't necessarily say quietly) but does the job required and at the price ? - it's well worth just a few extra seconds wait. I would recommend keeping the car running if using this pump to inflate tyres from flat - but then that applies to any device of this type. Also the inbuilt pressure guage should ONLY be used as a general indication. On mine it is not an accurate reading and I I have found it to show less than actual pressure. Review: Great little motoring device! - Cheap enough to buy one for each car. Yes there were more expensive digital versions available but for the amount of times you will use it they are overkill. This does what its supposed to, is small, cheap and easy to use. Don't waste money on features you dont need! Would purchase this again! ## Features - RAC610 SPECIFICATIONS: Voltage: 12V DC, Wattage: 85W, AmpsOutput: 10A, Power Cable Length (m): 2.9 - Pressures measure in PSI, kg/cm2 or BAR - VERSATILE: Ideal for car owners, electric car pump providing convenience and ease of use for tyre inflation - HIGH PERFORMANCE: Quality electric air compressor ensuring quick and efficient inflation every time you need it - ADJUSTABLE GAUGE: Equipped with a gauge to easily monitor the pressure levels while inflating your tyres - RELIABLE BRAND: Ring has been a trusted name in automotive accessories, ensuring durability and reliability in their products ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0030FBSQ2 | | Air Flow Capacity | 20 Litres Per Minute | | Best Sellers Rank | 423 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 20 in Portable Air Compressors | | Brand | RING | | Capacity | 20 litres | | Colour | Includes Led Light | | Country of Origin | United Kingdom | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 29,668 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05055175217246 | | Hose Length | 3 Metres | | Included Components | Valve adaptor kit | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 17L x 9W x 15.6H centimetres | | Item Highlight | 12V DC, 85W, 10A, 2.9m Power Cable, Quick Inflation, Ideal for Cars | | Item Type Name | Tyre inflator | | Item Weight | 0.65 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Ring Automotive | | Maximum Power | 85 Watts | | Maximum Pressure | 2.4 Bars | | Model Name | RAC610 | | Model Number | RAC610 | | Noise level | 90 Decibels | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | RAC610 | | Power source | Corded Electric | | Recommended Uses For Product | Tire Inflation | | Recommended uses for product | Tire Inflation | | Sound Level | 90 Decibels | | Special Features | Quick Inflation | | Special feature | Quick Inflation | | Style | 610 Analogue | | Tank Volume | 20 Litres | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Voltage | 12 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** RING - **Noise level:** 90 Decibels - **Power source:** Corded Electric - **Recommended uses for product:** Tire Inflation - **Voltage:** 12 Volts ## Images ![Ring RAC610 Electric Tyre Inflator Air Compressor with Gauge - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81EM1V9EbWL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: is it 4bar equivelent** A: Cheap tyre inflator you only get what you pay for. **Q: Can this be used for an airbrush?** A: Almost certainly not. Even some of the cheaper professional compressors struggle with enough cfm (measure of rate airflow) for air brushing/spraying. **Q: Will this drain the cars battery?** A: As someone else as mentioned if you are worried about flattening the battery leave the engine running on the car. Doesn't take long to inflate a tyre but remember that you need the ignition switched on on the car that you have connected the device to so may as well fire the engine up as well **Q: How does this device know when to stop inflating the tyre?** A: Not sure it does, best keeping an eye on it and stopping it when it reaches the level you want ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A perfectly adequate, functional device at an affordable price. *by B***E on 1 June 2014* Overall, I'm well pleased with this purchase and recommend it as a "good to have" in your car boot.

Yes there were more expensive digital versions available but for the amount of times you will use it they are overkill. This does what its supposed to, is small, cheap and easy to use. Don't waste money on features you dont need! Would purchase this again! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A bit noisy but so far, so good *by M***S on 16 October 2019* [UPDATE 6 Nov 2020. Unless there is a problem, this will be my final update as the pump is now more than a year old. The latest lockdown prompted me to check the tyre pressures. All of them had lost a few pounds so I used the pump again. All was well and the pump was used to restore the pressure on all eight tyres without missing a beat. If it wasn't so noisy and fiddly to attach to the valve, I would give it 5 stars] [UPDATE 12 Jan 2020. I tried the pump again today. Although none of tyres really needed to be 'topped up', I decided to pump them up a bit anyway. The pump worked fine and is now three months old. I will check again in 3 to 6 months. Original review and updates follow...] [Update 15 Dec 2019. I tried the pump again today. Even though they didn't really need it, I decided to add a couple of PSI to each of the tyres on both cars. The pump worked fine. I would say it took about 1 min to add 2 PSI. Original review follows...] [UPDATE 31 Oct 2019. I checked the tyres on the other car today and they all needed 'pumping up'. The front tyres needed about 10PSI each which took about 3 min per wheel. The pump worked flawlessly. Original review follows...] Every few months, I like to check the tyre pressures on the cars. That is all well and good but what do you do when one of the tyres has actually got a bit low and needs pumping up? I used to use a foot pump but recently came to the conclusion that this was far too much effort and takes too long when an electric pump would do the same job in a fraction of the time. The only trouble was that pumps provided with the cars are usually hidden away in a compartment in the boot and it is a bit bit of a 'faff' getting them out and putting them away afterwards. My solution was to buy a pump that I could keep in the garage and would be easy to get out, use and put away. I didn't want to spend too much on something that was really just a testament to my laziness but after reading several reviews on several devices, I decided to try the Ring RAC 610. Because it screws on to the tyre valve, it is a bit fiddly to attach and it does need to be quite tight to stop any air escaping. When in use, it did also strike me as quite noisy - not pneumatic drill levels but it would be very difficult to have a conversation while it is going. Fortunately, it only took about a minute or so to add about 4 PSI (which would have taken about 10 minutes with my old foot pump). The gauge did not seem particularly accurate - it was showing about 30PSI when my other gauges were showing 34. However as I always double check the pressures with a second gauge, this wasn't a particular issue for me but I wouldn't rely on the built in gauge if it is your only way of checking the pressure. All in all, in spite of the above, I still think this is a good pump for the money. My main concern is that some of the other reviewers have said that their pumps stopped working after a few uses. So, I will try to make an effort to use it every month over the winter and then update this review. In the meantime, I think 4 stars is a fair rating ## Frequently Bought Together - RING RAC610 12V Analog Tire Compressor, Inflates Fully deflated car tire in 4.5 Minutes - CKAuto 1/4oz, 0.25oz, Black, Adhesive Stick on Wheel Weights, EasyPeel Tape.
