Have been using the TST 507 system going on 11 years now. Upgraded last year to the newest color display, repeater ( which I did not have before ) and four new screw on sensors for the RV.

Still using two of the original cap sensors on my truck rear drive tires and they work perfect with the new display and new sensors on the other tires

I ran a test this morning to simulate a blowout .. by unscrewing a cap sensor to simulate a rapid loss of air. Of course I can’t actually do a full blowout test and I hope to never have one .. have never had a tire blowout in over 45 years of RVing.

Anyways . My crude test tells me the TST507 system will in fact find a blowout ( rapid loss of air ) quicker then I suspected it would ..

** NOTE . I have no idea what the factory installed OEM TST sensors would report ( the ones that are mounted internally inside the wheel )

Sharing with you folks for a gee whiz info … video of my test from my YouTube channel
