Tire pressure gauge

I am looking to purchase tire pressure guage system and I want to know what y'all recommendations might be. I've read about several different ones and now I'm confused. I appreciate any feedback you can give. I don't know what info to include because I don't know what's needed. My rv is a 31' tag along, 1 slide. Thank you.

the TST 507 system is very popular and includes a repeater for long trailers...

these people have good prices and answer phone calls and have provided an extra one year warrantee in the past...

I’m pretty happy with my Tireminder system, 6 sensors on our 30’ motorhome and 2 on the trailer with the booster mounted on the back compartment wall.

There are dozens of different brands/types of tire pressure monitoring systems on the market. One of the top brands is TST (Truck System Technologies), but they are spendy. Lots of other cheaper brands are also available, but most of them are Chinese knockoffs - not saying they are bad, but you get what you pay for.

Here's a good overview:

Blow out in my wife’s Merc last night on the highway in the middle lane. Scary but I kept in my lane. No warning from the OE tire sensor until it was off and in the trunk lol.
Michelin covered it with full warranty.

We have had a TST 507 system since 2015 and thousands of miles on it. It has saved my bacon quite a few times and I won’t be without one.

And then this article may be helpful for installing, configuring, and using the TPMS while underway:
