There was a thread about trailer tyres blowing a little while ago.
While perusing the Maplin catalogue I see that they sell a tyre pressure monitoring kit that checks tyre pressures every four seconds and sounds an alert if any start deflating rapidly or drop below preset levels.
it comes with 4 sensors, but says it can run 8, and so would be ideal for most car/trailer/caravan combos. 100 quid for the base unit with 4 sensors A55JX is the code.
Thank you.
The manual is on-line for anyone who is interested;
These work pretty well for prechecks
0 - 50 psi
I was more thinking how well does it pick up the signal trailer tyres?
don't know. since it is designed for 8 tyres logically it must be able to pick up from a trailer. the reviews say it works for twin axle caravan. the unit is down to 75 quid now (if bought on line)!!
2 extra sensors are 35 quid, so you may as well buy two units complete. some reviews are good, others not so.Have something to add? Share your thoughts — no account required.
