Get the TST 507 system. Mike Benson the sales manager posts here and provides his contact info for questions. Have had it for years, would never be without it. Fantastic customer service!

Cap Sensors or Interior? Do you have Flow through style?
Just put new tires on so I would do Caps to save the mounting aggravation

Caps and when I have time I'm going to remove the locks to make things easier. Doubt anyone would steal them..

TST 507. Just have to remove them when not traveling to preserve battery life. Ours works great.

I have the tst 507's. Do you have to reprogram the sensors after replacing batteries. I probably have that info somewhere. Thanks.

Another vote for the TST 507. Without flow-thru.

I don't recall with the old monitor for certain and don't think so but not with the new color monitor for sure.

Very happy with the TST 507s with flow-thru's. Also purchased and the "relay" and installed it on the inside of the front door. Never wanted to have dropouts and have never experienced any.

I go into panick mode if my TST isn't working. Definately a good investment. Moniter your temperature and pressure.

You may not need a repeater. I have towed around 35,000 miles and lost the signal from a tire about 3 times for an hour each - except once when the battery went bad.
And I don't use a repeater.

You asked for opinions, so here goes. Pressure Pro for us, 10 years experience with two Montana's, great customer service, easy to install and use .

I'll give another vote for the TST 507 system. TST (Truck System Technologies) have been around for a long time making these things for RV's and big rigs. Several years ago when we got our first Montana I followed advise on this forum and got the system with 6 flow-thru sensors. It has worked great through 2 Montana fivers and a gas MH.
Now with our current DP I need a total of 12 sensors. I went thru TST and found out that the monitors have been upgraded but the 507 sensors (cap and flow thru) still all work together. I decided to get a new kit so I can have a new color monitor, repeater, and 6 additional sensors. This way I can use my old 6 sensors and save a ton of money compared to buying a new kit with 12 sensors and repeater.
It was refreshing to find out that this company didn't change everything over the years forcing me to spend $600 to $700 for a new system. Thanks to this forum for guiding me to TST in the first place.
