Known issues and safety
Recall check: we searched GOV.UK product safety alerts, reports and recalls (Office for Product Safety and Standards) for “ring automotive” on 19 October 2026. It lists a July 2025 recall of the Ring RTC6000 cordless tyre inflator, which is a different, battery-powered model [2]. We found nothing naming the RAC610. Check the list again for your exact model.
An analogue gauge is a guide only. Check pressure with a separate tyre gauge, and do not leave the inflator running unattended.
Questions people ask
Is it digital?
No. Ring lists an analogue gauge [1].
Is it still made?

Our verdict
Based on the evidence, this was a basic, low-cost inflator, now discontinued. If you buy one second-hand, expect to check pressure with a separate gauge. This is a research summary, not a test result.
