Thanks to other members of this forum, I'm happy with my Safety Dave unit but I only use it on trips where the need to monitor 4,6 wheels is essential & where under normal circumstances, the pressures won't vary much.
I wouldn't be using it in areas where I had to vary the pressures a lot e.g. HD off road conditions.
Looking at the OBD2 website, their units seem ok, are cheap enough. I've had concerns in the past with solar operated, charged items as the heat eventually cooks the batteries with the worst case scenario being an explosion, & the cases.

I only have a car to do. Have wired the TPMS into the fuse box & with its own additional fuse as the accessory circuit has a 20amp fuse. Easy to do & it's out of the sun.
When you have pressure displayed you will be surprised just how much pressure changes from a cold morning to a warm afternoon. The sun on one side for half an hour, say on the north side of the car on the Nullarbor vs the shadow side, this alone will be about 3psi difference.

obd2 is the brand. australian company in perth wa completely solar
I'd be extremely wary of any automotive brand calling itself obd2.
OBD2 actually stands for "On Board Diagnostic" version 2. It is the internationally standardised communications protocol and port found under your steering wheel that can be plugged into to read error ECU codes etc.
