Product Information

com/products/b00n94l21u 5916164260005 AA 12V Digital Tyre Inflator with Adapters, Packaging May Vary 11. This handy, portable device is highly effective, capable of inflating vehicle tyres up to a maximum pressure of 100PSI, and plugs directly into your vehicle’s 12V socket via the attached 3m plug cord.

Beyond simple, effective tyre pressure maintenance, the AA Digital Air Compressor comes equipped with a built-in LED lamp, with settings for light, flash and SOS, as well as multiple adaptors for other inflatables such as sports balls, air beds etc – all of which makes life a whole lot simpler. According to the product specifications it should inflate to 100psi but when I tried to get my caravan tyres to 85psi it just died. The AA, once known as the Automobile Association, were founded way back in 1905 to assist motorists in avoiding prosecution as laws evolved to regulate driving.

Purchased yesterday, delivered today and low and behold it has blown up BOTH of my VEHICLES fuse boxes for the 12V socket, now this item doesn’t even turn on whatsoever.

Driving on under inflated tyres is both dangerous and very bad for fuel economy since it increases rolling resistance. As for reliability, I've used this numerous times over the last 12-18 months (occasionally multiple times I one day) it's still going strong.The reason we’ve left it is that it broadly aligns with the RCP-B31A above, but also offers a backlit display, which might be a feature you’re looking for in case you’re in need of pumping up tyres in the dark in a poorly lit area. Getting your tyre pressure right can help you not only save fuel and money, but also prevent hazardous punctures or blow outs. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. One of those is a good vehicle maintenance routines, and one of those checks can be performed with the AA electronic tyre pump range. Launched only in August of this year, VacLife has a new digital tyre inflator to brag about on the street.

However when I went to deflate my tyres and checked with a draper manual pressure gauge, the tyres had not been inflated above the normal pressure.I thought I had pumped my tyres up to 40psi (according to the tyre inflator) so as I could take a heavy load. Weighing in at just under three kilograms, it's a lot beefier than the other models here but that's not surprising. I would recommend this to those who have strong enough fingers and wrists, but I'm afraid it's not for me. It’s all very well having the torch function, but the display is on the side of the unit so harder to read in poor light. I’m not entirely sure why, but when attaching it to the tyre valve the display did not register existing pressure, therefore the inflation operation wouldn’t function.

A digital screen can be easier to read than an analogue dial, particularly in low light, and the exact reading much easier to determine. Nearly 3 years on and besides picking up a few scratches and one of the small rubber pads on the back (act like feet) vanishing it still works perfectly. If you use your vehicle for off road, display or racing purposes, higher wattage bulbs are available.The AA tire-pump works fine … so far (others have had problems - see their reviews below) and it fits very neatly in our oldish Yeti boot - the Yeti now starting to have those well-known/infuriating alloy-wheel air-leakage problems. Equip your vehicle with the AA Digital Air Compressor, and eliminate the risk of low tyre pressure for good. Replacing the refill too many times should be avoided, as the wiper blade superstructure will become weaker over time.
