TPMS - Buying from China - Any suggestions
I am checking to buy a TPMS on Aliexpress from China where it seems to have some good price. Anybody had suggestions on brand, good, bad, any.

Comparing a safety device to a computer is dumb, IMHO. If your computer fails so what? If a tire fails or a TPMS fails the results could be fatal. See several posts of the past few days. Buying a safety device based on price alone is foolish. So far no one has said they own one of the devices you're looking at...I would stay with a known commodity myself.
I just read all the way to the bottom of the page you referenced. They have two charts listed and it appears those will not work for a motor home. According to their charts, their PSI limits are 73 PSI. That won't do for a large vehicle...keep looking.
I have the TST system. ($359) It not only gives me a reading of the tire's PSI it also provides the tire TEMPERATURE. Is that important..:h. With several posts in the past few days of tire fires, YES that's important. I believe these folks may still have their coaches, (Lady Antebellum) if they had a TST system. When a caliper hangs up or a bearing fails, the entire wheel assembly becomes hot. Too hot and a fire results. With the TST system screaming in your ears, it's a little difficult to ignore and you'll stop before it gets hot enough to catch fire...just a thought....Dennis
