This review is from: Accutire MS-4652B Key Chain Digital Tire Gauge Black (Misc.)

I got this to use with my bicycle, which requires anywhere from 35-80psi.
I have a more expensive precision gauge for work on my motorcycle but it didn't have the range I needed. I figures this would be an inexpensive solution.

I have to tell you I am surprised that such a small inexpensive gauge is so accurate. It had identical results as my precision analog gauge in all tests I did.
The only issue I have is that it takes a bit of getting used to in order to get a proper seal with this digital gauge. If you hold it off angle from the valve stem even by only a degree or two you will not get a proper seal. Like I said though, you just need to do it a few times to get used to it. Other than that it's outstanding!
Small, lite, accurate reading to 1/10 of a PSI, and it powers on and off by itself.

In fact, I may just have to order a few more of these so I have one for every vehicle.

This review is from: Accutire MS-4652B Key Chain Digital Tire Gauge Black (Misc.)

I have a small compressor at home, and it has a built in pressure gauge that I used to believe. I got this, and realized that the pressure gauge in it was off by up to 5 PSI, which makes a huge difference.

Pros: Tiny, Light Weight, Accurate, Inexpensive

Cons: As other reviewers said, you need to put this onto the valve straight on, and press hard. Otherwise, air leaks out. I over-inflate the tires, and then use this to let some air out until I get to the correct pressure.

Overall: I have used this for over three months, on all of our families cars. I have never fully deflated a tire with this, and it has never taken me more than three tries on a valve to get it to seal. For the price I think it is worth it, and I would definitively buy it again.
