Tyre pressure monitor

Interesting for any feed back on these for use on a motorhome, as anyone bought any and used them, if so would you recommend them.

I bought a TyrePal set and it was fine for a while but then temperamental. When I get round to it I'll change all the batteries and give it another go.

Not seen the ones in the link before. Used TyrePal on previous vehicles and liked it. small display unit so easy to position. the TyreSure/Orange units are good. used and fitted lots of those.
Currently using a Carchet unit. What I like about this current unit is it uses a built-in solar in the display to keep charged - I see the one in your link has the same feature. super handy

I have a TyrePal unit athe moment with solar works a treat as far as I'm concerned

I fitted the type shown on the first screenshot, paid about £30 on fleabay. It was only about 2 weeks ago and I haven't yet tested them on the road, so can't really say whether I would recommend. It certainly seems to be monitoring OK.
The initial setup took a while though - usual "Chinglish" instructions and complicated sequence of button pressing.
It's worth looking carefully at the specs, some of the ones I looked at said they only monitored to 3.9 bar (about 56psi), so wouldn't be suitable for many MHs.

I can’t remember what setup I’ve got but they are perfect, 6 wheels, on display all the time

Elsewhere today I saw THIS recommended.

Think that one is 65psi maximum, so more suitable for cars than vans?

My tyres are below 65psi so they would suit me, worth a punt at £14 anyway

Mine are too, though I suspect the rears may exceed that when warm.

Possibly but worth trying Bill, I am more interested in how far the signal transmits

Wow that looks a bargain, but neither this or the one I have posted goes as high as 80psi and I'm sure that was what I was told my tyre pressures were.

Probably it would be no good for your van, but it may be worth investigating what your pressures should be, probably not the blanket 80psi that many new vans seem to be supplied at. SEE THREAD

Both front and rears should be 5.5 bar according to the sticker on the door frame. This is close enough to the 79psi maximum rating of the tyres I have. I'd be interested in pressure monitors that would be up to that pressure and also work on a LWB Ducatto.

I have used TyrePal for 6 months now (six wheeler) works really well, no issues at all. One thing though, the display is dark, if they could improve the display I would give them 10/10.

 

[tapfitter]

I've got one very similar and it work fine, but then my tyre pressures are only 48psi
Well worth the money!

Just ordered one. Can't go wrong at that price. Thanks 2CV.
