Will Not Seal - Lighting and Electrical

This gauge will not fit snugly over the tire stud. Very frustrating. I threw it away. I recommend buying The Professional Tire Pressure Gauge offered by Auto Gage instead as it works great.

Take it! Best in Lighting and Electrical Engineering

I got Tru-Flate 17-551 from my wish list. I've found mine isn't reading properly. It will show 30psi when it is actually 33psi. I know it's a cheap sensor but £3 renders it useless. I've never bought a tire pressure gauge that far away. He will be returned.

Pros
  • Lighting and Electrical
Cons
  • Exterior

No X2 accuracy on gauge kits

I bought this tire gauge because Tru-Flat is an old brand that makes very good solid tire gauges. The seller quickly sent me a new product for free. Good deal, right? When I compared it to 3 other gauges and one of the $200 gauges at my local tire shop, when tested they all showed the same reading, this one was 4psi above normal. Subtract 4psi from each reading to get the correct reading and it could be different at a lower or higher psi due to the pressure on the dial. When we tested two of…
