Think we’ve got ours set at 10% below for minimum and 15% above for maximum
Temperature is not adjustable on ours I don’t think

At least + 20% on pressure or it will be screaming at you at about 60 mph in warm weather, I set the temp to 75 as at the default of 70 it kept screaming at me in warm weather.

I am with Lenny HB on the pressure and temp, we followed the guidelines on a 4.500KG Scout, and had exactly the same experience.

Hello grumps147 Lenny HB ShiftZZ

Just installed my Solar Tyrepal (bit of fiddling with my wheel trims to allow the sensors to fit!).
Pressures are reading almost spot on what I set them to at garage forecourt recently (which means i can trust the local Morrisons machine now!)

However, temperature readings are all over the shop - 18, 21, 23, 33 degrees and the MH is sat outside my hosue and not moved for 12 hours? I have mailed Tryepal already as I wondered if I just have a duff batch?

You need to move it then the sensors will update, often a few feet back & forth is enough. My left rear is showing 18° where the others are in the 30's at the moment.

is the 70 temp or pressure ?
Temperature, had mine set at 75 I think I'm going to put it up to 80. A couple of weeks ago it screamed at me when one wheel got to 76, the others were 74 or 75 so it wasn't one getting too hot.

Yes you were correct. I didn't realise the sensors only really work when in motion. A few metres down the road and all corrected to approximately the same temp.

Mr Wombles does 20% above & 15% below static cold pressure & factory setting of 70 degrees.
