tyre pressure sensors


If, like me, your RV has duel rear wheels fitted, it is adviseable to fit these sensors on the valves.

This idea is so that you won't run a flat on a drive wheel, and possibly not notice it, 'til it is too late.

They come in packs of four, or six, and have a small readout panel that sits on the 'dash, keeping you "in touch" with those round rubber things.

Also very handy if you are dragging a van, and need to know the tyre pressures. How often have you/we seen a van propped up on the side of the road waitng for a new tyre ? These kits aren't cheap, but a lot less expensive than a couple of new tyres. Try, REPCO, Auto One, etc.

Have seen these advertised a bit lately. Just wonder how reliable they are, would it make you not take notice of things and if they are not accurate cause you more trouble? Not a great lover of these tech things till they have been proven over time

I have "Sensatyre" monitors fitted to the Pajero. I had a problem with the original unit and Hannibal Safari replaced the complete system under warranty and refunded the cost of refitting the sensors to the wheels (Involved stripping and a refit and balance). The replacement is an upgraded model.

Hi All.
A very good bit of gear, We have a Jette system = Jet400C with 8 senders , A must have if you travel on dirt and do a little night driving at times. worth the little bit they cost.
Wouldnt be with out them, no problems after a rough 4 years .
There is a booster on the van . It gives a strong sig. to the tug.
Takes a little getting it set up but after that all good.

Bob n Bev.

TPMS on both the tow vehicle and van....first puncture will just about pay for the initial outlay.
