Anyone use a TPMS for their trailer?

I bought a TireMinder TPMS (for anyone unfamiliar with what this is, it's a Tire Pressure Monitoring System) and it looks like really good quality. It was easy to install and it has the solar powered display that can also be powered by a micro-USB cable. Displays tire pressures and temps, batteries supposedly last 6 to 8 months and are easy to replace. The sensors screwed right onto the valvestems. I mounted the 'repeater' in the front storage compartment. I installed it at the dealer when I picked up our trailer after being repaired. Seemed to work very well. Anyone else use this? Or a different brand?

    I use the Tire Minders, very happy with them and also enjoy the peace of mind while towing

    TST 507 here for the past 9 years full time. I did just purchase a new monitor. The original mono one still works fine, but the new color monitor just sucked me right in. The only problem is they reversed which item is on each side of the screen. With the new color monitor the pressure is on the right vs the original mono screen with the pressure on the left. I have to reprogram my brain I guess.

    Piece of mind.


    X2, TST here too. Tireminder is another good one. Won't leave home without it.
