AstroAI Digital Tyre Pressure Gauge 150 PSI 4 Settings for Car Truck Bicycle with Backlit LCD and Non-Slip Grip Tyre Pressure Checker, Silver

This tyre pressure gauge does exactly what it’s supposed to and does it well. The digital display is clear and easy to read, even in low light thanks to the backlit screen. I like the non-slip grip too, especially when checking tyres in the rain or cold. It has four pressure settings (PSI, BAR, KPA, and KG/CM²), which is helpful if you switch between vehicles or just prefer a certain unit. I've tested it on my car, bike, and even a friend's car, and the readings have been consistent and accurate. It fits nicely in the glovebox, and the build quality feels solid and not flimsy. The nozzle seals well to the valve stem with minimal air loss, and it shuts off automatically after use, which helps save battery. All in all, a very handy and affordable tool to have on hand. Great value and peace of mind for keeping tyre pressure in check.

Tyres are easy to ignore until there is a puncture or an MoT failure arrives, but wrong inflation increases tyre wear shortening their life, causes wear to suspension systems and effects a car's stability so regular checks are advisable. Even with tyre pressure monitoring systems built in, telling you tyre pressures on your dashboard or even your phone, manufacturers warn they are only a guide. The TPMS can be fooled by many things, so even if it says all is well, a manual check is a good idea. The reason I bought the gauge was that my TPMS was warning of low pressure. A check with a small 12v compressor showed the pressures were fine which was enough to reset the TPMS. A decent gauge would have made the check quicker and easier, which was as good a reason as any for the purchase. This gauge is useful in that the head lights up, helping to highlight the valve stem in the dark and it gives digital readings in PSI and Bar, the two most common, as well Kgf/cm² and KPA, the reading set by pressing the trigger to the desired scale - the text for the scale is a bit small but is manageable, the text for the reading is fine, with the screen also illuminated. It is hard to judge accuracy as you need to check it against a known accurate reading but it tallies with my 12v compressor and with the TPMS so at least my pressures are consistently right or wrong. I did not have full confidence in my ancient hydraulic pressure gauge so in the past I have set up the compressor to check pressures before long journeys and holidays, usually with no action needed. This makes the job much quicker and makes it quick and easy to carry out regular checks at the same time as the usual oil and water checks. There is a cheaper model available, but this later model uses AAA batteries rather than button cells and AAA are available everywhere if you need them quickly and are cheaper to obtain. It's a useful tool to encourage you to keep a closer eye on your tyres.

Works well saves taking out the inflator and all the wires to quickly check

I recently purchased the AstroAI Digital Tyre Pressure Gauge, and I must say, it has quickly become an indispensable tool in my car maintenance routine. This compact device boasts a range of impressive features that make it an essential addition to any vehicle owner's toolkit. The first thing that caught my attention was the sleek silver design and the ergonomic non-slip grip. It feels comfortable in the hand and is easy to hold, even in less-than-ideal weather conditions. The build quality is impressive, giving off a sense of durability that's essential for a tool that will likely see frequent use. The backlit LCD screen is a game-changer, especially when you find yourself needing to check your tyre pressure in low-light conditions. The clear and easily readable display shows all the vital information you need, including the current pressure reading. With a quick glance, I can assess the state of my tyres and take immediate action if needed. AstroAI's inclusion of four pressure settings (PSI, kPa, Bar, and kg/cm²) ensures compatibility with various vehicle types, from cars to trucks to bicycles. This versatility makes the gauge a true all-in-one solution for any type of tyre pressure check. The straightforward button operation for switching between settings is user-friendly and intuitive. Accuracy is of the utmost importance when it comes to tyre pressure gauges, and the AstroAI gauge does not disappoint. It consistently delivers accurate readings, giving me the confidence to make necessary adjustments without second-guessing. Plus, its measurement range of up to 150 PSI covers the requirements of most vehicles, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. In terms of convenience, the AstroAI gauge is a winner. Its compact size means it can be easily stored in the glove compartment, center console, or even a toolbox. The battery life is impressive as well; I've been using mine for several months without needing to replace the batteries yet. In conclusion, the AstroAI Digital Tyre Pressure Gauge is a top-notch tool that every car, truck, and bicycle owner should consider adding to their collection. Its accuracy, versatility, and user-friendly features make it a standout product in its category. With the peace of mind that comes from maintaining proper tyre pressure, thanks to this gauge, I can confidently hit the road knowing that my vehicle is running at its best.

Had a "Michelin" brander version of this that looked exactly the same but was metal and came with a storage pouch which stopped it rattling in the glove box. This is plastic and light as a feather and no pouch. It has a backlit display which is not the easiest to read with a pair of 60 year old glimmers even in daylight. The tip / nozzle also lights up blue when in use but is not sufficient to cast any light on the valve if working in the dark. Bought two different gauges at the same time for use in two vehicles. There is a slight difference of up to 2 PSI between them. Don't know which one is the most accurate but that difference is negligible for me. Wouldn't reccomend - there are better ones out there for very similar money.

Well made accurate reading at a great price

Had to put a small piece of cardboard in the battery compartment to hold them in place and then it worked at any angle. It reads 2 psi less than my more sophisticated inflator (which corresponds with the garage machine). But otherwise very handy

It is very easy to use and agrees exactly with an analogue gauge, so no more differential inflations.
