They both look like pretty good guages, I'll bet even the visually impaired people like myself can read those.

I had the one from Camping World, but I was to lazy to hold it on the valve stem so I bought this one. It clamps on to the valve stem and it is a one hand job. Works real well on the inside dually tires, got it at Wally World, it is made by Campbell Hausfeld.

Just saw that in the CW flyer we got yesterday and we will make the trip today to pick one up.. Checking the air in the inside duallies is a challenge. My hands will not fit.

This is the one I have, and really like. I am with you, holding it on the valve stem is a pain in the keester, so this is a sweet deal.
Rich, I would go with this one.

Rich,
I found this digital gauge that measures in .5 increments. If used properly, it doesn't release much air when taken on and off. Mine, talks to me and tells me the measurement. http://tinyurl.com/2528kc
Valentines day is just around the corner, I am sure Helen would love a talking digital tire gauge....

I HAD one of the digital guages and the Lithium Battery is NOT permanent as mine started to give inaccurate readings... Looks like the one from Wally world is designed to be used with a compressor and I do not carry one of those around with me. I do have a small portable compressor but it does not look as if it will fit on the guage???

Rich, just get a female air chuck adapter, screw it on, and it goes on the end of a hose. It will work without a compressor or air line as well, out of the box.
I just came in from airing the trailer tires up with mine, it really simplifies things.

I had one like the Auto Zone model with the cloth type hose and really liked it as opposed to the replacement I bought from Schucks with a plastic hose which is hard to bend. I used my first one on a farm tractor with calcium in the tires and you know how that turned out. As for the talking model, DW is always looking over my shoulder to explain how to do the maintainance.
