Thanks! I will have one this Tues.

Looks like a no brainer for that price.

Looks like you need to be an Amazon Prime customer.

Mine says "Prime price $30.39" so you may have to be a prime member. Or possibly it is what they call Prime early access and after awhile price will go down for everyone.

We're Prime members and just bought ours for $30.39 plus $2.39 to help keep Minnesota running properly.

Enjoy,

Perry

Since I have only two trailer tires maybe the other two can go on my e-bike.

Wierd, Mfgr says not to use this with RV or trailer but use a different model. Then in the reviews some say it works fine with trailer.
Anyone that has had this have any feedback?

It says not to use if the vehicle >30 feet; I assume it won't transmit far enough.

Tips from experience.
The instructions say that to extend battery life remove the sensors when the trailer is not being used. First off, the batteries are really inexpensive so you’re not saving much.
When I installed the sensors, I put a dab of FTFE paste on the valve stem to get a good seal and make removal easy. Then carefully soap tested the result to be sure I had no leaks. Once the sensors were in place, and leak tested, I preferred to not remove them to extend the life of a cheap battery.
Then once a year when I replaced other alarm batteries, I changed all sensor batteries as well. About a 30 minute job . Just don’t lose the battery changing tool that comes with the set.

I got mine ordered! I was gonna get a different system that would monitor 8 tires thus my pickup too but it was way way more money. This one seems reliable and I appreciate EdColorado’s recommendation.

Thanks for the head's up, is it okay to use rubber valve stems with this? Scott


Fatbikes are way more fun than classic cross country skiing, unless the trails are not groomed then, Fatbikes are no fun at all.
