Found that as well - even if you don't have a flat keeping the wine goes flat is a challenge at 70.They seem to be a good idea as I rarely know what my tyres are doing. I did have a flat (overnight) a couple of years ago but did not need any gadget to tell me. The wine spilling over the side of the glass was enough information.
Hi - if you search on here you will see lots of positive reviews as it's an excellent safety product & makes checking tyre pressures & especially the spare tyre easy We have manufacturer standard TPMS on our car & motorhome & still have bought & fitted TyrePal as well for earlier warning & more feedback. Using discount code camcsol18 is currently taking £20 off the Solar 4 so down to £83.95 delivered on their website https://www.tyrepal.co.uk/product/solar-colour/ - may work for the other versions too & don't forget to add an extra sensor if you need one for the spare tyre.

Those 12v compressors struggle with the higher pressures on motorhomes tyres and take a fair amount of battery voltage double barrel footpump will do it quicker and probably easier for someThanks guys for your help with this
Also what 12v compressor is worth having for
Motorhome Tyre inflation ?

That's good because, in my experience, it's the valve connection that fails, possibly due to the high pressures involved. (Get two).Normally you have to buy inflator and hose separately or as kit with other bits

Perfect for the job, inflates the tyres effortlessly. I store ours under the bed so it does not disturb our neighbours if I have to blow the tyres up during the night.Pumping 4 tyres up to 60+ psi with a foot pump is a horrendous experience, so I bought one of these.

Very quiet, and does the job with ease
Do people bother locking the sensors - makes it easier to get access to inflate tyres if you don't (and a lot easier if they get nicked)Difficult to read the LCD display on newer model and a faff to remove sensors, to re-inflate.
When something goes wrong, you'll hear the thing OK and see the flashing display. Good for peace of mind.

Used Tyrepal for my caravan. Liked it, but you have to set very wide 'hot' and 'psi' parameters, or it will drive you mad.
For instance, my Bailey Cadiz had a cold pressure of about 58. Which is fine, but when you are doing 60 across Northern Italy in heat of 36-38, those tyres will soon have a PSI of over 70, which sets the unit bleeping until you increase the safety parameters. Also the heat of the tyres surprises you. Expect those tyres to get extremely hot.
What was good about them is the range. No problem with a sensor-to-monitor distance of about 9 metres.
Takes a while to get the unit to find the sensors when you start up, but the biggest bug bear is that the sensors are not very robust and two have stopped working. And at >£30 a pop, that's pricey. Tyrepal don't service broken sensors because they just want you to buy new ones.
Still not sure whether I will be using them for the Rimor AND the little car trailer, so am watching this thread with interest. What other options are there?
