Accuracy in tire pressure gauges is an important factor. Comparing the results, I have found out that the gauges on the air compressors at the gas stations can give wildly inaccurate readings. This digital tire gauge offers accuracy to within 0.05 PSI, and air pressure reading range from 5-150 PSI, in 0.5 pound steps.
To get a good reading, you need to position the gauge correctly to the valve stem of the tire. Fortunately, thanks to its design, positioning it has been made so much easier. The angled head allows precise positioning on the valve stem, and the rubber handle gives you a good grip so you can press it against the valve stem and get a solid reading without losing any air.
If you ever need to check the tire pressure at night or in a dark place such as a garage, this digital tire gauge comes with a big and bright backlit LCD display. The display has large bright red numbers for easy reading of the precise pressure value even on a sunny day. And don’t worry about display reading 28.5 PSI all the time; it’s just a protective sticker that needs to be peeled off.
The unit comes equipped with automatic shut off function, so don’t worry if you forget to turn it off. One drawback for this product is that it uses three A76 watch batteries (about 2$ each), and the batteries last for six months with normal use. If you consider this a serious disadvantage, check out one of our Analog Tire Pressure Gauges or a Programmable Digital Tire Pressure Gauge with long lasting lithium battery.
