01 May 2019
The inflator gets top score in Auto Express’ latest Mini Test
Auto Express has reviewed the new Ring RTC1000 Premium Rapid Digital Tyre Inflator, awarding it 5*, meaning it “takes a maiden victory” in the first review of the product by the industry-leading magazine.
Auto Express compared the new RTC1000 with the second and third place inflators from the 2018 tyre inflator product test, to see how the new-comer fares against the competition. The test compared inflation speed, accuracy, hose and power cable length, the extras that come with the inflator such as adaptors, a case and LED light, as well as noise levels.
The RTC1000 Rapid Digital Tyre Inflator came out on top, with the reviewer concluding that “it’s easily the best in all areas”. The test showed that the inflation speed was “searing”, that the “brilliant circular coil…made rewinding the lead easy”, as well as praising the large display, “easy-to-use rotary control” and all the handy extras – including case, LED light, spare valve caps and latex gloves.
Overall, it won 5 stars – outperforming the other models being tested.
