Description of ๐Ÿš— Enhance Vehicle Safety with CARCHET TPMS Tire Pressure Monitoring System + 4 External Sensors & Cigarette Lighter

The TPMS dynamically monitors tire pressure, which can prevent puncture and damage of car parts caused by flat tire. Improve fuel efficiency, prolong tire life, increase traffic safety and avoid abnormal wear of vehicle parts. The sensor monitors tire temperature (Celsius) and pressure (0~116psi). Sensor signal covers 26 ft, SUITS MOST CARS BUT NOT FOR RV, TRAILER, TRUCK, MOTORHOME etc. WITH LONGER BODY. Search B01H3KPZSQ if you are looking for TPMS with signal repeater for long vehicles. It has 4 external sensors which are easy to be mounted and replaced (search B01G8LXS26 if you need a replacement sensor). Also the batteries can be easily replaced (one CR1632 battery for each sensor). Compared to internal sensors, they cost less money and effort. You can DIY and never need to pay extra money for professional replacement. No risk to destroy your tire, just plug and play. The sensor is coded to monitor and has an anti-theft design. Each sensor is controlled by individual chip and will automatically shut down to save battery when the tire stopped running for 10 minutes. When you drive the car to 20km/h, the sensor will wake up and update data. Monitor supports visual and audio alarms. The default alarm value is 29-44 PSI and can be customized. Please email seller if you have any question in installing and using the TPMS. We believe prompt communication can solve most problems, and we are looking forward to responding you within 24 hours.

Works well - until they break

I like the idea of monitoring tire pressure so I looked into TPMS and settled on this one. They're easy to install and set up, but don't expect them to last more than a few years. I bought mine in November 2016 and after about 1.5 years a sensor reported a low battery. When the sensor was opened, the metal contact inside the case broke, rendering this sensor unusable. I figured this was an isolated case - maybe a defective unit, so I ordered a new sensor to replace the defective one. After aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Concise instructions

Some PSI numbers are not displayed due to an internal conversion algorithm

I have owned this system for 2 years. It was reliable and I appreciate the real-time tire pressure monitoring. However, there is one downside that you should be aware of. Reference or baseline pressure reading is not PSI (maybe it's Pascal?). Regardless of which scale is used, it determines the pressure on that scale and then converts it to the nearest PSI number. Because the original measurement is less detailed than PSI integer values, it must generate significant internal rounding up or down

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

A must for all active drivers

Very easy installation took less than 5 minutes to turn on all sensors and calibrate everything. I know one of my concerns used to be safety and crashing at high speeds. Rest assured they are not easy to remove without the tool provided. I tried unscrewing them after tightening the nut and I first made a hole in the valve before removing these things. Also, they were still tight when I drove around 80 for a long time (over 1 hour) on the Autobahn. They didn't take long to calibrate, just aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not the best

Great system lil: Replacement sensors

I was hesitant to buy this TPMS system. My 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 has a low tire gauge, but it doesn't tell you what tire or pressure it currently has. I drive a lot for work, averaging 1,000 miles a week for example, and I found it important to know what was happening with my tires at 75 mph at all times. Replace the batteries and simply discard the batteries provided. The second piece of advice I'll give is to be very careful about which sensor is installed on which tire (I've had multipleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ideal for a small house
Cons
  • Repair

Pretty close to perfect

NOTE: Before proceeding, make sure you have (or can fit) a plug through which you can read this when the display is just after outside shows the fork. (The reading angle is about 170 degrees.) Also, make sure you can live without this plug. If you can't say yes to both, you should probably get another one. The batteries in my car's built-in tire pressure monitors are dead and cannot be replaced; You'll have to replace everything, at over $500 a set. If I knew how beautiful it is I wouldn't have

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something

Poor quality died just after a year of short range/hour.

Updated November 1, 2017: One of the tire sensors was flashing between correct tire pressure and flat tire warning after 16 months of use (less than 10,000 miles because for me it's an old minivan used as a spare car). At first I thought it was the low battery, but the problem persisted even after replacing the new battery. Since the manufacturer's warranty is only one year, the $99 TPMS I bought 16 months ago is rubbish to me. Think twice before ordering this item as the quality is poor. Myโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
