Power Tank Review Video!
• CO2 Tank Fastest On ...
This week we're taking a look at a brand new product on the marked from Apex Performance Products. The Apex 3.0 Rapid Precision Valves are a great new air valve that makes it easy to air your tires down when you're ready to hit the trails. I was able to take a quick trip up the mountains after getting the Apex Precision Valves installed on my Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and I was amazed at the quality and performance of these valves. Check out my air tests to see how they compare to the other tire deflators I have been using! This tire deflator system is everything i thought it would be. Let me know what you think!

Did you see how fast I aired up at the end of the video? What do you think.
Red Rock Crawlers I honestly think they will become very popular
Crazy fast! I'm very interested in these, thanks for the video. Roughly how tall are they from the wheel surface to the tip of the valve? I ask because my wheel has the valve toward the edge of the wheel and I wonder if I'd have to be real careful to not catch them on rocks. Thanks. 👍✌️
@@pwrofgrayskull yes that is something to think about. the design of my wheels doesn't create a problem. But you wouldn't want these sticking out too far to get caught on something
Thanks for airing things out! Good stuff 👍
I see what you did there 😉
awesome find.
Ordered mine, should be here today! Super excited! I also ordered rebuilds kits and a couple spare caps. Nice to support local.
I agree, I like to support great local companies. These valves are a great product and I think you'll like them
Maybe do a longevity review after a long summer of wheeling..... I wonder how long that Oring will last with dirt and debris constantly being run across, open and closing. Awesome product and awesome channel, glad I found it
Thats a great suggestion. I'll do a follow up video in a few month to show how they hold up. Thanks for joining!
@@RedRockCrawlers How have they held up?
@@lucasruttle7351 they’ve been great. Still work like they were new. I’m aired down in 30 seconds!
@@RedRockCrawlers curious if they are still working as new after a year now?
@@highroller4010 they are working great still. I haven't had a problem with them, and still think this is one of my favorite upgrades as simple as they are
Thanks for the demonstration how it work, ordered a week ago just received my set for my JKU.
Claudio Gilberto hope you enjoy them. I think they're built very well and serve a purpose
Jensen these look awesome! Im going to have a set installed from Fat Bobs when I get new tires this fall. You sold me!
Terral Tyler they are awesome! Hope you enjoy them as much as me
Hey Jensen, just put a set in the beadlocks I bought from Zach. Thanks for the video! Where is the cave you are driving through in the intro? Looks awesome!
great valves right?? that cave is in Vernal Utah. We were out there for the Vernal Rock Rally earlier this summer
@@RedRockCrawlers totally! I missed the vernal rock rally. I'll have to go check it out.
@@grimdbd come out next year! its a great time.
Those look incredible. Thanks for sharing
Just bought some of these. They are fast on the deflate.
Are these preset to a specific pressure setting of your choice or do they take your tire all the way flat unless you keep checking and stop it at your desired PSI? Asking because I am planning to get the Nomad wheels with air down valves but these would save a lot of money over the Nomad wheel and air down valve inserts if you could walk away and close the valve lever just before driving off.
If you have a regular gauge (as opposed to the caveman gauge he’s using) you can keep the gauge connected and see the psi drop in real time
@@101eminem101 what is a regular gauge?
excellent thank you
It's cool that it deflates so fast, but I still prefer my Staun deflators, because I don't have to sit 17 seconds at each tire + checking air pressure if it's at my desired psi or not. And while they deflate by themselves, I have other things to do like disconnect my swaybar, adjust my shocks, take a leak, etc. Now the quicker air up time, that's something I'm interested in. But, I just wouldn't run them as reliability is questionable when you can break them off so easily by catching a rock or a branch.
Those are awsome!!!! I must have
Kurt Jensen I would recommend them. They seem to be very durable
WOW
What are you using to air up so fast? My air tank/compressor still took 2.5 mins to air back up with these. Absolutely love how fast they air down though
I use a power tank to air up. It’s crazy fast
@@RedRockCrawlers gotcha! Definitely looking into a CO2 tank in the near future.
2 years on... did they need maintenance or anything repaired or replaced? Any issues over the 2 years?
i've been using the same valves for over 2 years now and have no problems with them. Very good quality product
Love the idea, sadly not avaliable on amazone for international customers.
Does this stop at a certain PSI? Because the air deflators that come in a 4 pack that you screw on do.
These don’t. For one those screw on style aren’t accurate and they take forever to sit down. These apex valves have removed the core so as you can see from the video, you can air down in seconds
What is the length of the valve stem from outside of the wheel (where it seats) to the edge of the cap? I want to use these but my beadlocks may give me clearance issues..
Check out their website, they have all the measurement on there. Also they have a different version i believe for beadlocks
I did look at the website, I’m looking for the length measurement after its installed as where mine mounts it’s super tight, thanks anyways...
@@marcwebster77 I can measure it for ya.
@@RedRockCrawlers
Thank you sir, I even reached out to the engineers at Apex, I haven’t heard anything back. Where my valve stem mounts on my beadlocks is tight so if I have the clearance, airing uoband down would be a lot easier! Thank you for your time and effort on this!
@@marcwebster77 message me on Facebook or Instagram. So I can share pics
Do I have to have a special hole for the valves or do they go where the other valve stems were?
great question, these work in your existing valve holes. no drilling needed
bro can afford crazy rig and special valve stems but uses a 2 dollar air pressure gauge. Lmao
Nah you’re wrong. It’s a free pressure gauge from discount tire. 😂
Cool but honestly don't think they are worth the price. They stick out way too far and being rigid mounted the risk of being broken off is too high imho. EZ Deflators are a much better option as they are adjustable. Screw them on then come back a few minutes later when you are finished with other things. There doesn't seem to be much of a difference in airing up either. Trail repair is going to be WAY easier with a rubber stem. Install quality high pressure HP600 valves and keep a Laser or AME valve install tool in your vehicle and you'll be back on the trail in seconds if you break one off. Or a couple Colby valves in your glove box that can be installed without dismounting the tire as well.
I get what you’re saying. In all the years I’ve been wheeling I’ve never destroyed a tire valve or even hit one. But my wheels are designed to keep the valve tucked in rather than others. I also recommend anyone carry a tire kit on them with plugs and spare valves.
@@RedRockCrawlers I havent either but I've had to replace them because they were cracked at the base of the stem. Possibly from age or prior wheeling... I run the shortest metal stems on my street vehicles that have aftermarket rims because I like the look and have never had one leak. Rubber on my offroad rigs and daily drivers. I just like the ability to easily change them on the trail without the hassle of unseating the bead. I'd be pretty upset breaking off a $30 stem and then breaking my back having to fix it on the trail.
@@RedRockCrawlers These Apex ones are rigid, while normal stock valves are flexible and have give to them. That makes a huge difference whether you'll break one or not. With a ridig one it's way more likely to happen. Of course, if they're tucked in, then it's much better, but not all wheels have the valves tucked in. I did break a stock one once, and have a lot of rock rash on my wheels. Wouldn't trust Apex surviving that. It's just a matter of time before one breaks.
Can't really set it and forget it. You have to babysit you deflate to get to the pressure you want and have to guess (gauge) what the end pressure is. Coyote Deflaters seem tp better faster in the long run.
having a preset pressure setting is a nice feature. These only take about 10 seconds to air down so i'm hardly having to wait on them. You can also use a different gauge then I did to watch or monitor the pressure as it drops.
Where can I order these?

How are they after a year of use?
They are great, still work like the day I got them
@@RedRockCrawlers
how to air up? Do you need to slide down the red switch ? or the normal method ( put the Air compressor in the valve Air up normally ?
@@magician4444able just air up like normal
I’m actually watching your video because I’m trying to make it a lot easier and quicker to hit the trails for myself. But I can’t help but think how privileged we are to be spending money on silly things like this. It just boggles my brain on how much I’m willing to pay for convenience. What is 3 to 5 minutes per tire, going to gain me if I recoup that with an item that cost me so much money. I guess if I see somebody that needs help I’ll probably do that instead of investing in more tire deflating tools.
Where do we buy them?
