- It is really important to check your car and motorbike tyres regularly and once a month is an absolute minimum. I keep reminding my children to do this and decided to look for an easy approach. After 30 minutes of Google searching I discovered that the Ring RAC 635 was one of the most popular 12 volt tyre inflators on the UK market. It is not the most expensive nor the most feature packed but it has received a huge number of positive reviews. I am really grateful to Ring Automotive for supplying the unit in order for me to make this video.

Imagine seeing a concise (yet thorough) review... _and disliking it (seriously, what is there to dislike?)_
Thank you so much.Was really struggling and you enlightened me!!!!
Every driver needs one of those . I have one in every car and it’s the most useful thing
Hi Mohammed, I agree - great idea having one in every car. Peter
Excellent tutorial. Well done !
Detailed and clear, good job!
What a precise explanation on how to use my new Ring tyre inflator. Thanks very much.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent tutorial Sir, thank you.
Great review. Thank you very much for an excellent presentation.
Hi Mike, Cheers. Peter
Very well put together video. I’ve subscribed and will purchase this product shortly 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Guy, A good decision - my children have all bought one now and they have had no problems at all. Peter
Simple and very useful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
@@NewBritWorkshop I have bought one and used it👍
Thanks for sharing your excellent review. That is a very neat, desirable little machine your described and demonstrated.
I have the carcasses of 2 tyre inflators in my garage. One had a burnt-out motor (old AA model worth £25 back in 2005) and the other had an electrical connection problem (Michellin worth £40 back in 2006). Both barely lasted longer than their 12 month warranties. I am now reduced to using a hand-pump (£10 similar to the Silverline 380349) which has lasted me 15 years and is still going strong. I hope you will forgive me if I stick with my old hand pump.
Hi Jeff, I know what you mean but I would rather have one of these in the boot than a foot pump - it might be an age thing or maybe I just hate hard work. Cheers, Peter
Excellent video well done now feel quite confident to use as I thought the instructions were no so clear
Hi Linda, It is easy enough. It might be a good idea to have a practice go and satisfy yourself before an emergency creeps up on you. Peter
Very clear explanation, but didn't cover the part I was looking for, i.e. how do you unscrew and remove the airline without allowing air to escape from the valve and lose the correct pressure that you have just put in?
Hi John, Just do it reasonably quickly and it will be fine. Peter
Great and easy to understand video sir (doffs hat).
This is the one which I myself also purchased... a real nice piece of kit.
Glad it was helpful!
Hello Peter....it’s Teddy. Hope you are keeping well. Another great video Peter!! I’ve just bought the Ring RTC1000 with, as I write, £10 off from Amazon, making it £1 dearer than the 635!, the RTC1000 has 5 Star professional and customer reviews. Do take a look at it.....when you have a minute. Teddy UK xx
Like your style dude. Thumbs up.
Cheers. Peter
Such clear instructions thank you🐞
You’re welcome 😊
Thank's for this video. I'll buy it
Mine is doing a great job. Peter
Hi thanks for sharing. Single woman ,brought this machine and watched your video as nervous as not blown up tyres before.thanks for clear video instructions ,I've now got four correct tyres. I had my car running while blowing up tyres as machine worked better.hope that was ok to do that.
Yes, having the engine running is a good idea as it ups the voltage slightly and means things work a little quicker. Cheers. Peter
New Brit Workshop thank you.I drive a lot of mileage everyday, so I did it before I left and I defiantly notice the improvement today. I have you to thank for that. I subbed to support you as you have supported me.thank you.
20 pence lol a Pound near me!
Good video thank you,
Excellent, clear and concise tutorial. Three years down the line are you still happy with it, Peter?
Hi Paul, I lent it to one of the children and have not had it returned - so it must still be good !! Cheers. Peter
Excellent video - thanks for posting. Good, too, to see your Brommie....will order this pump for my Lexus, also recommended by Honest John.
Glad it helped
Nice review, my only issue with a lot of these pumps is my bike doesn't have a 12v socket
Hi Michael, I carry a pressure repair cannister, about £7 from Halfords in the UK. If I get a flat you connect it to the tyre and press the button. It squirts sealant and air into the tyre and it fixes most punctures. Peter
Very helpful video !!
Glad it was helpful!
Articulate video. Good work Sir.
Hi, i'll be using it on my motorbike, does the inflator have a battery enough to run without plugging it in, i.e. can you charge it? or will it only run if its plugs in. ? thanks
It needs to be plugged into a 12 v DC supply - like a car cig lighter socket. Peter
What does error code EAO mean? Anybody know if it's fixable? Thanks
I won't be buying one of these because I have an earlier version I bought several years ago, that is still going strong. My only complaint about it was the case (same style) was very tight making it difficult to get it back in. Seems it has been eased now.
Hi Stephen, I am glad that your old unit is still working well. As you say, the new case is a very easy fit. Cheers. Peter
good pomp ???
hi there. does any air escape when disconnecting the hose from the valve?
Hi Alex, Yes a tiny bit but it is insignificant unless you are setting tyres up for Formula 1. I think I mention this in the video. Peter
Thank you for your reply. I should have watched it to the end. The pump I'm using currently (supplied by Ford), a lot of air seems to escape. Hopefully this shouldn't be as bad
Hi Alex, It is just a matter of taking the connector off in a short time. If you start to take it off and then have a coffee break before finishing then it would be a problem. It does not worry me not even when doing bike tyres which have a very small capacity compared to a car. If anyone is worried then inflate a dash above the requirement before disconnecting (I see no need to do this). Peter
if hte air is higher than the amount you want - does it automatiically deflate it?
No, but you can let air out very easily. It does automatically stop pumping when the desired pressure is reached. Peter
New Brit Workshop ok thank you for your reply!!!
Do you not need to have the car engine running to ensure the battery isn't depleted ?
Not with my current car but it might have been necessary with my old Wolsey 1500 ! Cheers. Peter
Bought the earlier model had it for 3/4 years. Always found the screw fit airline to be useless as it needed a quick fit connector. As you try to remove the line air is released.....ring tell you it is what's in the line but that's cock as the air pressure decreases . Also the buttons start playing up and sometimes don't work at all. Worth it ..is it the best.?.... not really.
I found that it releases air as well. Also if you turn the pump off and wait till the gauge stabilises the pressure drops by a pound or two. It seemed to me that the lower pressure is the correct one as my tyres were all under-inflated according to the old fashioned slider type gauge. So I pumped it until the minimum pressure was the one I wanted. Auto Express rate this the best pump and the old fashioned gauge the best gauge. I'm pretty pleased with it although I'd prefer an attachment like the one at our local garage which you just press onto the valve.
Hi, what is an air line diameter?
Hi Deividas, I am not sure what you mean but the outer diameter of the air line from this unit is about 12 mm. Peter
I found on ebay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Truck-Auto-8mm-Brass-Air-Pump-Chuck-Connector-Tyre-Tire-Inflator-Valve-Clip/202005026280?epid=2213986291&hash=item2f087015e8:g:Fk4AAOSwTLxZgFkV but not sure which size I need...
Is it a screw on connector
Yes, and easy to use. Peter
I was given as a present the 630 model and within 2weeks the gauge stopped working!!! ring must have realised the 630 has problems! hence the 635..
I do not know the background to the product development. Mine works well - used it again yesterday to do the bike tyres. Peter
Why don't they ever consider motorcycle tyres that require the air line adaptor to be at 90 degrees (or off-set)? And why the hassle of 'screwing' the air line on to the valve?? What's wrong with the quick and simple push or snap on type? I wouldn't want to be in the rain faffing about trying to SCREW the air line on when I could simply push it on and jump back under cover! Valid points... no?
Hi Steven, I agree with you absolutely. I am thinking of swapping the adapter with the one that I have on an old foot pump. For some reason all of the 12v pumps that I have seen have the screw on adapter. The traditional right angle lever ones are a little bigger but most systems, like this one, will have the room for it to be stowed Peter
And the usual TH-cam video ear splitting headache inducing guitar thrashing racket to finish off. Why do posters do that?
At least I leave the noise until the end so that you can stop at that point. Peter
if tyre flat no chanse pump air
You might be able to get enough pressure into the tyre to enable you to drive it to the nearest garage, instead of being stuck sat in the car with a flat tyre. Depends how bad the puncture is.
Bought one of these a couple of weeks ago. Tried to use today for first time today.
Completely dud. Nothing works even after studying available idiot guides on the net.

Hi KB, Send it back and get a new one. Peter
