Hi,

Does anyone have any recommendations for tyre inflators?
I was thinking maybe the Ring RAC640 might be a decent one to buy.

At the moment I use my trusty single cylinder footpump, but I thought it was about time I got something a bit less hard work!

Thanks in advance,

Andrew.

I have an halfords digital one. It works well, will take a tyre from flat to full in a couple of minutes. Small enough as well.

Yeah. A draper 50ltr compressor. Takes 12 seconds to fill a tyre.

Hi,
That is useful, but I was thinking of something slightly more portable.

That's more like I had in mind! Halfords have got quite a range. Which model have you got?

Andrew.

I am also looking to buy one of these but I am hoping to get one that doubles as a jump pack. That is if they exist

Double cylinder foot pump all the way!

A bit old-school for me, pbar. I've decided to join the modern world!

I had one of those years ago, and it worked OK. I can't remember what happened to it. I think I must have lent it to somebody and never got it back!

Nah, you have a Capri!

Mine takes about 20 secs!

Hi,

Thank you to everyone who has offered advice.
I've decided to buy the Ring RAC640.

It's highly recommended if anyone was thinking of buying one.
I can't comment on longevity or reliability yet, but for a portable machine, it inflates the tyres very quickly. Much faster than the one I had previously.
