You did better with that deal Woodtic than we did! I have never heard of Tweety's before and my husband told me where he wanted me to purchase it from. Oh well! We still got a better deal than buying through TST directly. I know where to look next time!

Hi Carol,

How many sensors did you get with yours?

You'll find there are a nice handful of online vendors everyone uses. I've used etrailer.com, rvupgrades.com, and Tweetys.com too. Part of the fun as you know is price shopping I use ebates.com like your Mr.Rebates it sounds like. I also have a Good Sam VISA which gives me 1 point for all normal purchases and 5 points for all Camping World/Good Sam purhcases and stays.

Has anyone used the Tire Minder system.

Seahunter for the $359 -10% we got 6 and then we also purchased an additional 4 flow through sensors so we could do all 8 tires that touch the road and 2 for the spares. That way we won't have to climb underneath to test PSI before we go on a trip. We ended up only paying $10 more than Woodtic. I will check around a little more rather than order from the place my husband tells me to.

I did not order the repeater because most people are saying they don't need it. Thanks for the other places to shop from. I sometimes worry if I haven't heard of anyone using a particular online company so I think that is why we have tended to look at Camping World for most items. I will do more checking now that I know some other tested sites.

I just checked and we only paid $179.99 - 10% + 4% rebate for the 4 additional sensors which is cheaper than Tweety's so I don't feel so bad now. Both Tweety's and Camping World have good deals on them right now. It just depends on if you want the 510 or the 507 and how many sensors you want with them. Happy shopping everyone!

I had a pressure pro system on past rigs and was satisfied with it. My present rig has 'tire minder' and it seems that the sensors have failed more often and have to be replaced.

By the way, I have been glad I have either since the day I came across a new arrival at an RV park who had no idea that the rear curb side tire on his trailer was totally shredded. He learned of it when I told him as I walked by.

Good luck

Where is the TST made?

We have the Tireminder system from CW. It's on sale today at CW saw it in their sale ad in OKC area. The system works fine but we had a few tire sensors fail and they exchanged them no problemo. The clip that holds the battery becomes unsoldered from the sensor and the signal fails. I recommend the 3 year warranty they offered. It was resonably priced. Tireminder also will replace the lithium batteries if you return they to them to them yearly. Good luck.

I just set-up the TST system today. Looking at the directions I thought it was going to be a pain in the rear end. I remembered seeing a video on the TST web site. Watched the video and set-up was oh so simple. I like it so far. I only put the sensor on the trailer so far (my biggest concern) but I'll probably get 2 more sensors for the TV before too long.

I don't see any markings on any of the components.

We have the TST, and it works great. It came with one bad sensor (threads were stripped) and they replaced it before I even sent the bad one back. Excellent customer service.
