Tire air pressure monitors

I think I would like a set of air pressure monitors. I need to know what is a good and reliable brand. Also where would be the most economical place to purchase these?

We have the Pressure Pro System. Three years and it has saved us twice.

We have the TST TPMS. It has served us well and the customer service has been good. http://www.tsttruck.com/RV_Tire_Systems.html

I have TST and lost signal in one of the pressure sensors and sent it off today. Was told they have a two day turn around service, this is my first problem in a 18 months.

I use a Hawkshead TPMS and it has saved my bacon once. However on this years travels one of the sensors failed. I E-mailed Hawkshead for a replacement and they could not supply me a replacement. So until I purchase a new brand I'm traveling around with three sensors.

Easternmarine.com has a sells Nvision TPMS. They are very reasonable but I don't know anything about them.

I will certainly buy a couple of spare sensors no matter what brand I purchase.

Pressure Pro for us. We had a sensor go nuts and they replaced it right away with no problems or stress. Like the system and they did right by us on warranty.

I had Hawkshead and had numerous quality issues, plus they were not helpful with trying to solve any of the problems. Always had an excuse for the pressure being off about 5 p.s.i. Finally I purchased TST and have been very satisfied. To me the decision would be between Pressure Pro and TST. The only reason I did not purchase Pressure Pro was the monitor was too large in my opinion.
