I mark a small zip bag for each tire placement so no issues when going back on before we leave for the winter. Safer than leaving on a tire for the folks that like to steal. chevman

I keep waiting for the manufacturers of these systems to start using the same technology modern cars use and stop using batteries.

Kinda doubt we will ever see that on TT's and FW's. Manufactures still don't want to switch to disc brakes let alone computer controlled ABS.
"Indirect TPMS works with your car’s Antilock Braking System’s (ABS) wheel speed sensors. If a tire’s pressure is low, it will roll at a different wheel speed than the other tires. This information is detected by your car’s computer system, which triggers the dashboard indicator light."

My TST uses alkaline button type batteries. And they turn on when pressurized. And don’t have a sleep mode that I am aware of. Any time I turn on the receiver the pressures pop up shortly afterward whether the trailer moves or not. I don’t think the receiver can send a signal to wake up the sensors.
I take them off during the winter to conserve battery. Each sensor has a numbered sticker so I know where to replace them. Takes a couple minutes.
