X2. Have had great service from TST. Love being able to monitor tires when I have to pull at night.

x10.. It saved me in So. Dakota.. outside dually went, & I wouldn't have known.. didn't feel a thing... and would have overheated the inside and when it would blow.. can you imagine the mess.
I stopped before the outside failed and shredded... Know some people who have failed tires and they really tear up the MH wheel wells and compartments on either side. One ruined both rims as 2nd dually went kaboom... & shredded this was at about 65mph. almost lost control & wreked..

Minor cost to save big bucks..& peace of mind...

mholman,

How is it you need three monitors? My 507 system allows me to monitor both truck and 5'er and I can turn the 5'er monitoring off when I'm not towing it. The second trailer behind your 5'er I can understand the need for a second monitor, but why 3?

Thanks. Just curious.

Great product for peace of mind when towing. TST saved my bacon in LA. Low pressure alarm sounded. Pulled into Jack in the Box lot and changed a tire with a huge bubble/cracked tread with 15 psi left.

Last trip, monitor was acting up. Called them and they shipped a new monitor and power supply to my next campground, no questions asked.

Great peace of mind while driving in the desert with 120 plus degree road temps. See a lot of trailers blow by at 70MPH plus with no clue what their tire temps/pressures are. Mine jump from 70 pis to over 90, just cruising at 55-60MPS. Theirs must be well over 100psi...no wonder their are so many complaints about blown tires!!! In this case, ignorance is not bliss!

I have the 507 system. I pull double and have 12 sensors. i started out with 4 flow through sensors and they were sooo slow to put air in the tire and to long. customer service was awesome and traded them out for no charge. I had to get the repeater, everything works great. my only complaint is the configuration of the monitor makes it so I have to have 3 monitors to get the combinations of which trailer Im towing

It will get your attention. Don't ask me how I know that.

Pretty darn loud. I've got a 2001 Dodge Cummins and I can hear it easily over the motor.

Love my 507 system, great customer service, great product.

X2, I've had my TST system (with replaceable batteries) for about 2 years and it works as advertised. Just replaced the batteries which is very easy to do. The peace of mind is worth the cost IMO and it might let you save a tire that's slowly going flat. It will also alert you in the event of a blow out so you have a good chance of reducing damage to your rig. I've had 2 flats in 9 years and both times I did not feel it or know it until a passerby alerted me.

Pressure Pro is also a good system with a big following, but more expensive.

I also have the 507 system and love it. I did have to replace one battery two days ago when hooking to for a trip, but after you do one or two the process takes just a few minutes and you aren't left with a dead sensor that you have to mail back for battery replacement.
