Does anyone now if there are any discounts on tyrepal systems? think its time I invested
 
Removed mine as you have to remove them to check the tyres properly when cold and also to put any air in, also seemed to leak out air a bit even though I replaced the washers. Also one of them stopped working, changed the battery and still faulty.

Oh! Not sure that’s a typical experience.
I only have my own to go on and that experience is that the sensors don’t leak and while removing the sensor to check tyre pressures is a small pita, the need to check tyre pressure are a lot less as you’ve a display showing what the pressure is - without attaching a pump/gauge.
Edit: typo (whole/while)

That's our experience too - also very handy to know pressure of the spare tyre without having to crawl under the motorhome :)

Good point kevenh
I do need to remove all my tyrepal sensors as its been a while since, I last put any air in the tyres, plus the fact that the alarm went off continuously as I drove a short distance around the block to take the surface rust off the disks.(y)
That, I guess is a good thing though, although being on Michelin Agilis Camper Tyres, the question is always up for debate as to whether to ignore Michelins advice and run all four tyres at 79PSI :eek:
I have been running the fronts at 70PSI, rears at 79PSI with no problems so I guess I will continue to do so.

I now need to refresh my memory as to whether the settings on the alarm was Plus or minus 15/16%, it is surprising how high the rears increase in pressure at motorway speeds, but they can be a lifesaver in terms of early warnings.
Cheers.

I must order a 5th sensor, bet they are only available in sets of 4,:giggle: thanks for the reminder.

High pressure alarm setting +20% of cold tyre temp. pressure & low pressure is -15% of cold tyre temp. pressure. Already saved our bacon on the motorway!

On a TyrePal Solar, the high pressure alarm is for +20%, the low pressure alert is -15%
