whats the battery life like on the flow thru's ? do the flow thrus use the same as the "cap" style (CR1632) ?
I've had them on for one year without removal. So far so good. I'm not sure which batteries they use, but I'm sure TST would be happy to answer that question if it's not on their website.
it sounds like most of you guys (w/ TT's) are only running the sensors on your TT & not on your puller too, i guess that stands to reason in that you've probably got OEM TPMS systems (some that may or may not report pressure i imagine).
Correct, I have an OEM TPMS.
our coach doesnt have a TPMS system and coaches / DP's don't have spares so the level of interest/awareness is a little different....i want to know the state of my Tire Pressure (before we leave) as well most coach owners want to monitor the status on the fly... including alerts or early warning of a potentially catastrophic problem.
If I had one, I'd have TPMS on it. The difference between stopping and airing up every 100 miles vs a blowout would be worth it for me.
I think the same apply to all TT, 5er & toad pullers....in that its potentially difficult to know if we have a flat on the item were pulling.
Correct. I've had one tire have tread separation, and if it wasn't for the TPMS, I would never have know it was having an issue. Temp on that tire was 10 degrees higher than the rest of the tires.
