RAC 12V Compact Inflator review

This compressor is tiny, which makes it great for glovebox or boot storage.

RAC 12V Compact Inflator
Overall Auto Express rating

2.0

Price: £12.50 | Added: 10psi

As its name suggests, this compressor is tiny, which makes it great for glovebox or boot storage, but using it is seriously compromised. It comes with cigar lighter and battery terminal crocodile clip connections, but there’s no on-board storage. The compact casing also means the air line is only around 10cm long, so the pump will be hanging on most wheels. Pumping is slow, and a keen price can’t overcome the drawbacks.
