Let's quit the bickering and get back to the discussion. I will throw out a new question: How easy would it be to move the sensors from one trailer to another? I don't mean the act of physically moving them but of having to recalibrate the sensors for the new tires. For example, I have a Columubus 295RL on order. I want a TPMS for it. I would also like to use the system on my 24' tandem axle trailer when I take the RZR's to Colorado. It would also be nice to use on my 25' gooseneck equipment trailer. If the tires on each trailer all had the same pressure it shouldn't make any difference but what if one tire had a rating of 80psi and the others 100psi?
The sensors seem to be fairly expensive at about 50 bucks apiece so buying 8 spare sensors doesn't make much sense. Also the batteries I assume would run down whether I used the sensors or not.
re-calibrating the sensors is a pita for me, cause you have to do them ALL, even the ones that didn't change. I bought a second monitor and sensors for all tires 4 FW, 4 trailer, 6 Dually . one monitor when using my FW and one when using my enclosed car hauler..
FW at 110lbs, car hauler at 80lbs..
I just use whichever monitor I need.
when I am away from whatever trailer, I turn off the trailer sensors in that monitor.
