Good question about owner-replaceable batteries vs factory only replacement.
So, I e-mailed PressurePro with that just that question. Here is their response:
"As the only TPMS provider manufacturing our Sensors right here in the USA, we keep our Sensors closed units not only because the US government requested that TPMS providers do so, but also because it helps ensure the highest durability, reliability and safety for our customers. Units allowing battery replacements are left vulnerable to over tightening, causing cracking of the Sensor shell, under tightening, causing air leaks and weather damage.
PressurePro Sensors not only are closed units, but have three layers of plastic between the outside shell and sensor components, allowing our customers the highest safety advantages should a Sensor be cracked or damaged from abuse or accidents, it also allows our customers the market’s highest durability and use as our Sensors can be used in the harshest of weather conditions, submerged for specialized uses and more."
