12V Tyre inflator

I use the following. I've had it for years without any problems.

Also had one of these, lasted a couple of years. £10 in TKMax!

This is what I use for car & bike - lives in boot of the GTI. Not electric, but under a tenner
& pressure gauge as good as a digital one.

Thanks chaps for the links and advice so far.
I am one of those sorts of people that has to have something better than i really need . Mt pressure washer was £500 as an example , my bike was £1500 etc.
It would be useful to use the inflator for other inflating jobs too , hence the extra expense. There are some twin pump jobbies on ebay etc and wondered if anyone had experience if them

Be warned on those Ring 12v inflators. I had the RAC 635 - and returned it after a couple of uses. Here's the amazon review I left for it, 1/5 stars:

I am in the process of returning this item. It has 3 problems, one of them quite major. In order:

1. I have found that the pressure misreads by about 10PSI. That's a massive amount, and is somewhat concerning as a safety issue. I checked versus 2 other pressure sensors (one digital and the other a traditional gauge on a footpump) which were very close to each other. They measured my tyre at 28psi, whilst this unit told me it was 18PSI. I tried turning the unit off and back on, and unscrewing the connector and putting it back on again as tight as I could. Still said 18PSI. Nonsense.

2. As other reviewers have mentioned, the screw on fixing allows a lot of air to escape before you can unscrew. Not sure why they went for this design.

3. It's a lot noisier than I thought it would be!

So, mainly because of point 1 above, i have contacted amazon and will be sending this back.
