Let’s face it, in today’s world, most new vehicles come off the printing press with a built-in Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). However, some vehicles don’t.
For folks that still need to know their tire pressure, like when you’re out on the open road, here are the top three TPMS systems according to Amazon sales.
Part two of the story are the four sensors you’ll be placing on your tires. These sensors are advertised as being low consumption and can work up to two years before batteries need to be replaced, due to a sleep and awake function that kicks in when the vehicle hasn’t moved for ten minutes. Five alarm systems warn you if your tires are under low or high pressure, high temperature, leaking air, or the sensor has a low battery.
For just $75 dollars on Amazon, you can own one of these systems and take the worry out monitoring your tire pressure. The price is a sure influence in it being so favored.
All functions and alarms as the previous Tymate are still in place, it’s just that this version includes six sensors which are sure to come in handy if you have a trailer or any other six-wheeled vehicle. Readings range from 0 to 87 PSI as well.
For $160 you can grab a M12-3 Blue and get on the road with one less worry, no, six less worries.
Every six seconds, this system reads tire pressure and temperature and sends visual and audio warnings in case a change is detected. Even though the monitor powers off after 15 minutes of vehicle inactivity, the sensors still work their six-second magic; 24/7 monitoring.
Since no solar panel is available here, the EEZTire monitor includes an internal battery that holds up to 60 hours of functionality. Once drained, a USB port allows you to connect to your vehicle’s cigarette lighter.
For $280, you’ll receive a fully programable monitor and four sensors. If you’re running a trailer or large RV, any extra sensors you’ll need to purchase extra. A 12 anti-theft sensor system, plus a booster to strengthen the signal sent from rear tires, will run you $640. Small prices to pay for a worry-free road trip.
