- TucsonJimExplorer III use TST which is a major player in commercial and RV TPMS systems. I've used mine for the last 15 months, and 11,000 miles with no issues what-so-ever. Here's a link to the system I use:
TST 507 Flow Through
It has saved me at least one damaged tire due to catching a leaking valve stem.
Jim - BB_TXNomadThe are 3-4 brands that get pretty good reviews, TST 507 being the most popular it seems. That is what I have and very happy with it.
The TST 507 has user replaceable batterys. And you can get either standard sensors, or flow thru sensors that allow you to add/remove air without removing the sensors. But some have said that adding air thru the flow thru sensor is so slow it is easier to take them off if you need more than a few pounds of air. I have the standard sensors, and since I only need to add 2-3 lbs air in the spring and am good for the season, the standard ones work fine for me. The flow thru sensors are also larger and heavier. - aubreymExplorer+1 on the TST 507 standard sensors and system. Easy to install and use.
- Explorer1016ExplorerTST Customer service is excellent. I have had a few issues with sensors and they took care of my problems immediately, no questions asked and the issues were self inflicted, not even the fault of the product.
You can even talk directly to Dan Covington, President,
as I have several times. 5 Star+ rating from me. - lanerdExplorer IIAnother popular brand is Pressure Pro.
This is almost a daily subject. I highly recommend that you do a simple search on TPMS and you'll find enough to keep you busy for the rest of the day.
Good luck
Ron - wolfe10ExplorerYup, I have had Pressure Pro on the last three motorhomes and have had no problems.
So Pressure Pro and TST would be the two I would look at. - Dick_BExplorerFor previous posts on this popular subject search this Forum for `tpms' or pressure pro or other brand that you are interested in.
- w3ozwizardExplorerHow do you keep people from taking them? Any security devices?
- Explorer1016Exploreron the tst system, the standard sensors require a special wrench to install/remove. The 507 flow thru's have a very small allen set screw which is somewhat difficult to remove. Not impossible but without the small allen wrench, very difficult
- lanerdExplorer IIAfter 7 years, I have yet to have one stolen. Since Pressure Pro sensors do not have replaceable batteries, it would be kinda silly to steal one. The thief would have no way of knowing how old it is and no one would buy a used one.
Personally, I just don't think thievery is that rampant among rv'ers....we actually kinda look out for each other.
