Second one I have owned. Good readings. Lighted. Programmed to pressure in both front and rear tires.Easy to handle
Good enough for the price
I bought 2 of these, one for my father and one for me and both work good. I was concerned about old reviews of this tiregauge but it seems to me that Accutire solved the problem. Sometimes still some air get out so you have to be fast to press the gauge to the tire.
Good purchase
Easy to use and the screen is easy to read. It's a little big for a tiregauge but the size also makes it easier to handle.
I also found it difficult to get a good seal with this gauge. I first tired cutting a piece of rubber to fit, but without proper tools (hollow punches of exactly the right size), I could not get it. Then I noticed that the old pencil gauge had a rubber gasket in it. I removed it, and saw that it was about twice as thick as what I needed, so I cut it in half with a sharp scissors. Put it in the Accutire gauge, fit perfectly, and now the Accutire seals with no loss of air. Hey Accutire - are you listening?
I bought two of these gauges. They are easy to use and work great. They appear to be accurate, unless they are both off exactly the same way. By keeping my Toyota Prius tires properly inflated I get at least 10% better gas mileage, so the gauges will pay for themselves soon.
