Specs:
While on the road, it is very important to regularly maintain your tires and make sure they're inflated correctly. If your tires are underinflated or overinflated, they'll develop irregular tread wear and become prone to overheating and blowing out. The TireMinder Smart TPMS helps protect your investment and keep your family safe by monitoring your tires and alerting you of any signs of danger before disaster strikes.
This TPMS includes 4 flow through sensors that let you individually monitor each tire on your application for changes in pressure and temperature. The flow through design allows you to inflate or deflate your tires without having to remove the sensors. These sensors are able to work on rubber, steel, chrome, or nickel valve stems. Every 6 seconds, they will check the pressure and temperature again, and use Bluetooth to send that information directly to your smartphone app.
The TireMinder 2.0 app is free to download and use. For Apple smartphones and devices, it's compatible with models iPhone 7 and iPad 7 and newer. You can connect to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to display the details of your tire on your car's dashboard. For Android smartphones, it's compatible with model Android 4.4 and newer. When using the app you will need to have the Bluetooth adapter in operation within 10 feet, as it is crucial for helping to bridge the transmission between the sensors and your phone.
The smartphone app will provide you with visual and audible cues to warn you of dangerous changes in tire pressure and tire temperature, as well as alert you of changes with the monitor battery, sensor battery, and sensor signal. And even if your smartphone battery dies, the Bluetooth adapter will still continue to provide you with those alerts. Before you begin setup, make sure the Bluetooth adapter has been charged and all batteries have been installed. Then download the app on your smartphone and connect to Bluetooth.
Select your RV or trailer configuration or the locations of the tires you want to monitor. Then select one tire location, install a sensor on the corresponding tire on your RV or trailer, and the current PSI will automatically appear on the app. With the purchase of additional sensors (TM66FR - sold separately), you can monitor up to 22 tires on 8 different vehicles, which is perfect for a fleet. Sensors can be added, moved, deleted, or replaced at any point, even after initial installation.
You can set the tire pressure in psi, Bar, and KPa. If you choose psi, you can set the tire pressure anywhere from 0 psi to 199 psi. As for the temperature, you're able to switch between degrees F and degrees C, and the system will alert you if the temperature exceeds 167 degrees F. With the app, you are also able to disconnect and reconnect to different vehicles, RVs, or trailers. This is useful for those who switch between different applications, such as a Class A motorhome owner who sometimes tows a car.
This repeater helps improve signal strength and range of the sensors. It has dual Hi-Db antennas that let the booster cut through signal interference coming from wireless electronic devices used in surrounding automobiles. It also ensures that the link from the sensors to the Bluetooth adapter is strong and continuous. The unit has a green light on the front panel to indicate it has power and a blue light that blinks when it transmits a signal.
This TPMS system includes batteries, locking nuts, O-rings, a wrench, and an adhesive. Once the batteries have been inserted, thread the locking nuts onto the valve stems, and install the sensors. Lastly, secure the locknuts against the sensors with the wrench.
The weatherproof and dustproof Bluetooth repeater can be installed anywhere on the exterior of your RV or trailer between the rear axle and king pin. The optimal mounting location for a towable camper is toward the front whereas the optimal mounting location for a drivable RV is toward the rear. it is not recommended to install the repeater inside your vehicle, as you might experience signal blockage. Use either the adhesive (included) or hardware (not included) to attach the repeater and wire it to a power supply line. In order to reduce vibration, make sure it's securely mounted. Then connect the black wire to ground, and the red wire to power.

Hello, everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this TireMinder Smart TPMS monitoring system with Bluetooth for your RV or your trailer. Now this TPMS system will let you monitor your RV or your trailer's tire pressures and temperatures via your smart device, using a free TireMinder TPMS app. That app is available just by going to your operating manual and you'll see a QR code that you can scan with your phone and it'll download the free app to your phone or even to your tablet. It does work great on your motor home, fifth wheel or trailer, and it'll give you real time pressure and temperature notifications on your smart phone or tablet. Now it is compatible with an iPhone 7 and Android 4.4 or newer smartphones and an iPad 7 in newer devices.
Now I happen to have an iPhone 8 plus and I've downloaded the app. So if I hit the app, you can see it'll pop it right up here. And once you get everything registered allow you to monitor the tires' pressure and temperature. Now it does come with the everything that's laid off here on the table comes with the Bluetooth adapter right here, comes with this rhino signal booster repeater, comes with this nice AC or DC adapter with a micro USB cable. The four flow through transmitters, four locking nuts and the locking wrench to attach it to your valve stem.
Comes with eight extra lithium batteries and replacement O rings for whenever you need to change the batteries in there. Comes with a nice storage bag to carry everything in, and it's nice operating manual to describe how everything hooks up and how it operates. I'll start with the Bluetooth adapter right here. This adapter will install anywhere on your vehicle within range of your smart device. The maximum range they say is about 30 feet.
They do recommend to be within about 10 feet and that allow you to connect to your smart device. The size on this, not including the antenna about four and a quarter inches tall, two and three eight inches wide about five eights of an inch deep. The antenna add about two inches. Now the rhino booster repeater right here, this is what'll strengthen your sensor signal and it uses the 433 megahertz transmitters which eliminates electronic interference with other wireless device. And this is fully weatherproof.
It'll install in the undercarriage of your RV or trailer and it connects to your 12 vol 24 volt DC power. The wire length that comes with, and the alligator clips is about three feet. Now the overall dimensions on this, including antenna is gonna be about four and a quarter inches tall, about two and a half inches wide, and about seven eights of an inch deep. The USB charger right here, you can plug this into your 12 volt accessory outlet and use the USB cable to charge. Or you can flip out and plug it into an AC wall outlet. As we mentioned, it comes with the micro USB charging cable. Now the sensors themselves, you can see it comes with four flow through sensors that'll let you monitor each tire individually. It does check the tire pressure and temperature every six seconds, allows your tires to be inflated or deflate it without removing the sensors. That's why it's nice having the flow through, "cause you can just take your valve cap off and then you can put air in or take air out, whatever you need without having to remove the complete sensor from the valve stem. The sensors do install easily. They screw onto your tires' valve stems and the lock in place using these lock nuts and a wrench to do that. These are brass construction, they are designed for use on rubber, steel, Chrome and nickel valve stems. And what's nice about these transmitters, they're only about 0.7 of an ounce so they're very lightweight eliminates the need to rebalance your tires. And the upgraded sensors provide accurately within one PSI, pressure range on them is zero PSI up to 232 PSI, operating frequency is 433 megahertz. And the operating temperature for these sensors are negative four degrees Fahrenheit up to 185 degrees Fahrenheit. Now this comes with four for four tire. You can add all the way up to 22 and we'll monitor 22 tires. We do sell additional sensors separately on our website and we did mention it comes with this nice storage bag. So you can see the zipper is open. You can put your Bluetooth adapter in there, put your charger in there, put the cable in there and then go ahead and take your zipper and zipper closing carry everything all in one place. But that should do it from the review on this TireMinder Smart TPMS monitor system with Bluetooth for RVs and trailers..
Ratings & Reviews
For peace of mind I rated this 5 stars. Prior to purchasing this I had two blow-outs on my Rockwood Mini-lite (2018). One of them I didn't realize it blew till a car alerted me! Now I get warnings for blow-outs and so much more.
Pressure shows about 10 pounds under actual, but who cares. I want to know if I am losing pressure. Quite a few false alarms and it’s hard to reset. All in all I would buy it again.
The system has been working great and I have added additional sensors for the dual tires. Working well on my phone. Thanks for following up.
Great product. Warned me when a tire had gotten damaged and was losing air. Was able to pull over and replace the tire before it shredded and did a lot of damage. I won’t travel without the Tire Minder.
Product worked as described. I’m still experimenting on where to place the booster but it seems to work anywhere I’ve placed it on the trailer. Setup was easy if you follow the instructions.
By the way, if you have never ordered from etrailer you will be impressed with their service.
Everything got here fast!! Ordered on A Saturday night had it Wednesday. Bought a companion hitch, biker bar and tire minder. Good packaging great communication. Pleasure doing business with you.
This was easy to set up and gives such incredible peace of mind being able to see the trailer tire pressures and temperatures while towing. Works like a charm!
I bought this brand in a different model and one of the units didn’t work in the first couple of months the vendor was very disappointing to work with but after contacting etrailer I knew it would be easy to make any purchase with confidence this particular unit seems to be working fine thank you etrailer
The pressure monitors were easy to install and setup. Using them on our first trip out since installing them. The peace of mind of being able to see the pressures and temperatures of the tire makes the trip less nerve-wracking. Despite the rough roads of New York and Pennsylvania the monitors have stayed securely on the valve stems.
Used on 26' Flagstaff with an F-150 tow vehicle and does not require the signal booster module. Works great with either iPhone or Android phone and you Do Not need to keep checking your phone for and problems... because the TPMS receiver provides beeping alerts if the pressure or temperature of any tire exceeds or goes below set press/temp levels. Phone will displays temp and pressure for each tire and allows for custom settings.
Would absolutely recommend.
This TPMS continues to work very well. The remote holds a charge for a long time. It is great being able to monitor my tires. I had a leak on one of the tires on my dual axel trailer, and the TPMS alerted me to the issue. I never would have picked up on it looking at the tires until it was too late.
After a year of use, and about 8,000 miles, our Tire Minder continues to work almost flawlessly on our 2-axle, 27-ft Airstream trailer. It certainly gives us confidence and peace of mind that all is going well. We have had a few occasional false alarms, but we've learned to wait a few minutes for a reset before panicking. We have yet to change the batteries in the sending units - still got the spares that came with the unit.
Overall an excellent product, definitely recommend to others.
Great TPMS for the cost. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars,is the frequent loss of connection between the sensors and monitor. At least once per trip, I have to remove and reinstall a sensor, following an alert. Not a huge issue, just annoying. I have checked the reported tire pressure and temp against a tire gauge and laser thermometer, VERY accurate readings.
I don't pull the motorhome out of the driveway without the TireMinder on. In other words "Don't leave home without it".
2015 F250 - Easy to configure, moderately difficult to install because of signal booster wiring. I was able to buy a 5th wheeler wiring harness and tie into existing modular outlet in the trucks wiring harness and avoid splicing. Functions great. Warned of a tire that was failing before a total blowout.
This is my second Class C and my third TPMS but by far the best of the three. My first TPMS was hard wired to its own independent mini screen and this Tire Minder is bluetooth enabled and works flawlessly thru my iPhone. My second unit is what I considered a Tire Minder wannabe. It was Bluetooth enabled and also worked thru a smartphone but it only monitored sporadically at best. Needless to say, it didn’t make the cut and was returned. I’ve taken two trips this year using this system and I could not be happier with its solid performance. It was incredibly easy to install and set up by using the directions from the included booklet and App. I also like how it goes into sleep mode but still runs in the background. The first trip had me nervous because I didn’t think the unit was working but l finally realized it was working as designed. This is a great TPMS and I highly recommend this product especially because of the peace of mind it brings mile after mile monitoring my air pressure and tire temperatures.
The TireMinder TPMS is not a very good system. It has drop offs all the time and when a wheel drops off, I have to go thru the process of completely resetting that wheel. It constantly also gives either high or low temp reading on certain tires. I’m not one to complain but you asked for a review. I’ve got everything set up to their specs with the repeater under the coach on the outside. Would not recommend this to anyone. The only thing good about it is that allows me to know what my psi on the tires are before I get on the road.
The hardware is well designed and well built. I like the repeater and the sensors are small and provide both pressure and temperature. Where the system as a whole failed was with the app software. If a trailer tire is losing pressure, I want to know about it so that I can address the issue quickly before there is a catastrophic failure. My expectation is for the app to raise an alarm that something serious is going on. However the TireMinder app only provides a single chime. The same notice one gets when receiving a text and then only if app is running in the foreground and the phone is not in do-not-disturb mode or asleep. In contrast the TireMinder app the Android clock app has a much more robust alarm for an event that it isn’t nearly as critical as a tire failure.
I had a flat tire on my last trip. After being camped (trailer unhooked) I had a flat tire on my trailer. I changed the tire and put the spare on. We were leaving that day so I stopped at a tire shop to get the flat fixed. The tire was perfect. The air leaked out of the TPMS monitor on the valve stem! Up to this point I thought the product was great. If anyone wants this Sysco to free come see me in Arizona before I throw it away. Do Not Buy This Product!!!
Excellent product and customer service! Accurate and reliable. CR1632 batteries are hard to find so buy extras. Batteries last for several months. Occasionally I get a no signal from the farthest transmitters so I keep fresh batteries in them. Easy to program and use. Booster and trailer tires are 30’ apart. Booster is very easy to install with alligator clips and tie wraps.
The system has worked very well. With our towed, we have 10 sensors, which gives us peace of mind while on the road.
Timely product arrival, easy to install and works great on our 41 foot 5th Wheel. Knowing tire pressure is necessary for safe relaxing driving.
I used it on my first trip of the year with close to 3000 miles. This ended up being exactly what I was looking for:
- A reliable TPMS reading device
- Easy to use, install and secure
- The kit came with everything
- A BIG REQUIREMENT: It's mobile app has a display on Android Auto on my car's dash screen to visually see my tires' pressures and temps, which avoided velcro-ing a TPMS display unit to my dash board or making me look at my phone when I need to focus on pulling my trailer. I REALLY like this feature!
They provide good directions and it takes a little time to step through and calibrate the unit to my tires' pressure. Once I got that down, it was less worry driving knowing that if pressures got to high or a slow leak popped up I'd know instantly. I could look at my TV's android display and check in on my tires. On my second day the temps increased much higher than expected and I got notices/beeps that pressures were high and was able to stop at a rest stop and let some air out.
I knew I was asking a lot, but I was not disappointed!
This product works well from installation of the sensors to using it on the road. I mounted the booster near the front of my fifth wheel and monitor the tire pressures and temperatures through the app to Apple CarPlay. My only regret is not purchasing it sooner before I had a blowout. Had I owned it then, that situation would have been avoided.
