Tire Minder vs TST tire pressure monitoring system?

I've had a TST system for a few years now and it has worked well. I just bought a motorhome and it has the Tire Minder system. I'm just wondering what system to stick with. I'd have to buy 4 sensor...

Either one require the use of a sealant, like teflon tape to not leak air at the valve stem?
I've been using the TST system for 5 years now and not one time ever needed teflon tape to seal the sensor threads. You are not putting on lug nuts. They are very, very tiny threads and should only require very slight finger tightening. Do more than that one time and maybe those O-rings do get crushed real bad.
