Ratings & Reviews
I trailer a classic car in an ATC 20ft enclosed trailer and wanted to monitor trailer tire pressures to avoid catastrophic tire failure. The install was straight forward,easily done with anyone with basic skills. I opted for the "ball type" sensors. The sensors work great. I also have 2 spares on board with sensors that activate about 50% of the time when there is enough trailer movement to trigger them into on mode. The only thing I would change would make the cigarette charger optional and offer a USB alternative.
Really like to monitor pressures and temperatures in real time. When one of the tires started leaking I got warning right away before damage was done and was not dependent on other drivers to warn me about destroyed tire after the fact.
Since sensors are internal, I can trust the readings reflect tire/wheel temperature better than external stem sensors.
Internal sensors do not start reading until trailer moves but that is not a problem since readings appear within seconds once wheels start rotating
So Far Excellent. Still working flawlessly after 1 year. Screen is easy to read.
Great product! Installed on my 2 axle car trailer my dad built for me and that I have been using since the late 90's. Looking forward to purchasing another kit when I'm ready to put tires on my new 3 axle trailer.
I have not yet installed the system and the sensors so I am in hopes that they will work as planned and advertised so far they look good to me.
One of two elbow fittings was smaller so I had to go and buy a nipple to install it makingbit a bit taller, so I had to just reverse the install, photos added
Much better than screw on cap type sensors. We had the cap type previously and had two valve stem failures. No issues with these in the wheel sensors.
These are much more responsive than the external stem based TPMD systems. They allow checking and filling like a car tire system. The Only drawback is the vehicle has to be moving to check tire pressures so it can't be used for pre-trip tire pressure check.
I wanted a 6 tire TPMS that took up minimal space on the dash/windshield. I didn't want one that mounts to the end of the valve stem so I had these installed while putting new tires on. This has worked well for me over 8000+ miles and counting. Gives me confidence in so I don't have to worry about tire conditions while driving. It occasionally takes a while to connect at the beginning of a drive but was never a big issue.
Had these installed when I replaced all 6 tires. Tire installer complained a little on the fit but got them all installed. Installed on a 2017 thor class C. Took a round trip ride from Connecticut to Oregon and back via southern circle Texas,Arizona etc. system never skipped a beat. Worked perfectly the entire trip. Never lost communication. Did not install booster antenna as motorhome is only 24’ long. Checked the actual tire pressure vs digital readout a couple of times and it was right on. One down side is the graphic on the display doesn’t show the rear duallies , just a total count of tires. You have to remember which sensors are on what rear tires. Very good and reliable system and delivery was fast
I m more than pleased with the TPMS. We were riding on cheap Chinese-made tires that ended up with four of the six different sidewall failures. The internal TPMS alerted us to the building temperatures in the tires, and we were able to get them serviced before they blew out and caused untold damage to our RV. They do not stress the air valve stems like external sensors and give accurate readings. The downside is that I have to move the RV before the readings show up on the monitor in the cab. But that is a small price to pay for the peace of mind that they bring us on the road.
This is a true TPMS system for a trailer/RV or even your car.
Typical 'screw on' TPMS valves end up rusting onto your tire stems and are less precise. These Tuson TPMS go inside the wheel like a normal TPMS system and are more reliable and longer lasting.
The range is great and the display cycles between temperature and pressure, giving you ample time to react to bad bearings etc instead of finding out you have a problem when a tire blows up.
Installed in the summer of 2023 with new tires. Easy to install the relay unit at the front of the 5th wheel. The display is bright and easy to use. This tire pressure and temperature monitor and disk brakes I purchased from Trailer has removed the stress from wondering about the condition of the tires and brakes. This is much less cost than repairs to the trailer for a blowout as I can attest.
Just had the sensors installed on the wheels of my 2018 MB Sprinter 3500, and the monitoring display recognized the sensors within about 300 feet of driving and one minute. Paid America's Tire in Walnut Creek $132 for the install ($22/tire including re-balancing), there was no need for "re-learning".
Great product.
I did a lot of research before committing to this one, it checked most of my boxes. If it holds up well and the sensor battery lasts as claimed, it will deserve a five star rating, but for its lacking a couple of features I think are important. I would like to suggest a couple of improvements, should the manufacturer wish to hear them:
1) Adding an integral battery and solar cell would be a huge improvement, I don't like having to plug it into the cigarette lighter, which stays powered up when I shut off the car, putting a drain on the battery unless I remember to shut off the monitor. Another significant advantage to adding this would be not having a cable draped from the front of the instrument panel up the middle of my windshield.
2) make the valve stems about 3/4" longer. I am dealing with duallies in the back, and the edges of MB wheels end up really close to the threaded portion of the valves, making it very difficult to attach the valve extenders.
3) Add a software "switch" to disable the trailer battery status display, this would be accessible through the setup menu. I have no need to monitor trailer battery status, but 1/3 of the display time is taken with a null display.
Looking forward to replacing my external TPMS sensors with the internal ones.
Great product. Only reason for a 4 rating is that the antenna cover keeps falling off and has done this so many times I ended up losing it . Connects great and definitely gives me piece of mind.
These CHANGED MY LIFE! I was so distressed constantly trying to check the pressure in my tires, especially my duallies, after my inner duallies both went flat in the middle of nowhere due to a leaky valve stem extender. These are metal and replace your regular valve stems, and then I added new valve stem extenders additionally and checked for leaks really good everywhere before reinstalling, and now, NO MORE PROBLEMS and I can monitor continuously. Hallelujah!!! I love that these monitor my pressure and temperature for each tire in real time and it works so well I didn’t even need to use the signal booster on my class C RV. Being on the road full-time is stressful enough and there’s always something to monitor/repair; getting these took one thing to worry about off my plate. If you’re on the fence, buy them now!

Wow! I dont have a need for these - but I feel convinced from your review to just go get them just in case! haha I am so happy they are working well for you!
Looks like a good system but. I did not see anywhere that the tire pressure sensors are not compatible with Alcoa wheels. Found out when the tire shop tried to install them but the included valve stems are too big in diameter to go through the Alcoa wheels. Ended up returning.
Do you have a question about this TPMS Sensor?

This has already paid for itself. On a trip to Banff, Canada, the low pressure alarm sounded. Pressure in one of my dualies had ped to 50 psi. I topped it off and kept an eye on it. Turned out to be a slow leak. Without this monitor, I could have ended up with a flat and a blowout. I had my spare switched in next morning at a local tire shop, and had them put the sensor moved to that rim. Cost me only $40 instead of what might have been, at best a few hundred, and possibly a serious accident.
