works good numbers light up so it can be used at night. top of the line unit.
Rubbish. Tried and it didn't work. Used it once when it was first purchased. Didn't need to use it for 12 months. Replaced the batteries ($12 cost), still doesn't work.
Overview: My dad got both my sisters and I one of these tire guages to measure the tire pressure and they work great.Ease of use: Turns on when you apply it to the tire to get the air pressure and automatically turns off again when your done.Accuracy: I have not tested the accuracy but for my car (which tells me when my air pressure is low) it works greatI recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable tire guage
but for a tool that says "5 years warranty" I think 2 years of life is not good enough 'though my father has the other one and it's still working. Sadly, mine died about a month ago with the "L" error (Power supply depleted) which is covered under warranty "free of charged". Yes, It's a good product. I bought two of this 2 years ago. the tool worked very well, I can't complain about that. If possible I would give it a 3.5 stars rating, taking away one star for dying in less than 50% of the factory warranty time and half a star because sometimes it was a little difficult to gauge some tires without the air escaping (just some times).Even if I could send it to the factory (with package freight prepaid) I think it's easier and perhaps cheaper to just buy another two.Will I buy them.
Accuracy of the digital per the manufacturer is 0.5psi +/- 1%, not what is stated by amazon. Overall very pleased with the gauge. I have two gauges (the other one is a slime mechanical gauge) and they both agree around typical car tire pressures, but lower pressures (5-15 psi) they differ by about 1 psi. It has been pretty accurate from what I can tell. Been pretty happy with it. I bought this tire gauge back in december of 2008. It has a very large psi range (5 to 150 psi). Haven't tested them above 45 psi.
