Got the Accu-Pressure indicator caps!
I put them on my Truck this morning, I posted Two pictures, one on my Ford, and one on Sue's Escape, to show a lower air pressure in her tire. I bought the 80# for the truck and the Monte. It is Green until it loses a few pounds, then pops up Red.
This will be great when we stop at a rest stop, or the gas station, all I have to do, is walk around the rig.
I have them for the Monte, but it's raining.
8 for $51.28, shipping $7.95, total=$59.23

Ozz, what a sweet idea. I never heard of them before, now I gotta have them. You just cost me more money again. You're as bad as my wife. lol. Take care, Don.
Can you get them , say 65 for the front tires? or 35 for my car?

Here you go, Cowboy...
They have many different pressure ranges.
Cool, aren't they?

No International orders at this time. I will try and do a search for a Canadian distributer.
Thanks again Ozz

Be cautious. I bought four of the 80# Stealth Tire Minders from Camping World in January. 2 have went bad, and let the 5er tires leak down to 25#. The Tire Minder indicated low pressure, and after I aired back up, found the leak was in the clear cap on the end of Tire Minder. About 2 weeks later, same thing with another indicator.
I removed all and will return them to CW.
It's a great idea. I hope the product you purchased works better.
They are still available at the CW website, under tires and wheels, tire accessories.

Thanks for the heads up, Brant. Is it the same brand? I will use some bubble leak detector I have, for refrigerant leaks and test them.

Comparing pictures, they don't appear to be exactly the same. The TireMinders are black when inflation is OK, and go yellow when the tire is low. Acu-Pressure goes green to yellow to red.
I had a set of 35# AcuPressures on my Silverado for a couple years, never had any trouble. Bought them off Ebay.
When I was looking for a set for the Monty, couldn't find any 80# rated except at CW. It must be recently that the Acupressures are available for higher pressures.
It was 3-4 months, and a few thousand miles before the first one went bad. I thought maybe a rock nicked it, or something else hit it while driving. But when another one leaked down..............
Both times, I found the low tire on a walkaround before leaving a CG after setting a few days. I also do a walkaround whenever we make a stop while on the road, and never saw any problems.
It's a great idea, but I'm a little gun-shy now.
