I've been using this gauge to do DOT truck inspections for the last 2 months and now the pressure release button is doing just that, releaseing the pressure whether it's pressed or not, requiring the gauge be kept pressed on the tire stem until you read it

The length is long enough to get it where it needs to go and still allow you to read it well. The dual head gives you two ways and even with some bad positions it was possible to use it. The gauge part also swivels so its easy to read. Easy to use. And these gauges last a while.

*Update* July 2011

Didn't notice until recently, that above the gauge where the pressure release is at the top end of it just before the hose, it can be taken apart. It may unscrew a bit over time and you may notice the symptoms of that loss of air escaping there. Just tighten it back up to fix.

That said, the gauge is still working like brand new.

This gauge has a much wider range of readout than most so it will work well on small cars all the way to big trucks. It has a nice large dial. The cord is just the right length.

Bleed and short hose are convenient but gauge was off by >5 PSI. After disassembling and adjusting needle now reads correct but disappointing to have to repair. And yea, the rubber smells bad - removing rubber case and washing in soapy water minimized smell.

Just got my unit the other day, and compared the reading to 3 of my other gauges. This unit read 31# while my others were in the 36.5-37.0# range. Mine is going back as soon as I can get it out. BTW, it smells awful -- don't bring it in your house. Not a good choice -- at least for me.

I only bot this cuz of the $7 price. The accuracy given its very large range (10-160) was off. If you need something very accurate this is not it.

Right out of the package I used it first on the front tire of my bike and the gauge and pressure release worked fine and then I used it on the back tire and the pressure gauge read zero. The release malfunctioned after the first use, so the dial would go back to zero right after you pulled the gauge off the tire. I put it back in the box and returned to Amazon.com immediately! I do NOT recommend!

This item is a very nice equipmet and practical for my car. Is and excelent product with great capacity to work.
I recomend this item.

Right out of the package the pressure release was broken, and when I tried to use the gauge it never moved from zero. I put it back in the box and returned to Amazon. I was kind of disappointed because the overall quality of the guage doesn't seem bad... I guess it's just hit or miss if you get a good one.

Well constructed. Durable. Accurate. Price was great. Shipping was quick and reasonable.
