Electric Car Tyre Inflators
Is there an accurate reliable inflator on the market: I've been using one purchased from the AA, but the readout is erratic, the viewed Pounds Per Square Inch numbers jump 2 or 3 pounds at a time. I consider accurate tyre pressure a necessary safety requirement

You can read our guide to the best tyre inflators on our Honest John Kit site here - kit.honestjohn.co.uk/top-tens/top-10-tyre-inflator.../ We found several examples such as the Tacklife and Ring RAC635 have digital display where you can set the required pressure and the pump will activate until it is reached, and then automatically switch off.
From choosing the right tyre to what to do when it goes wrong - we have the answers.
