Cool - this is helpful info. Thanks!!

A side note that MAY be part of your past experiences...There are a lot of crap batteries available online these days. Sticking with top brands like Energizer and Duracell isn't good enough anymore. Now you've got to (attempt to) make sure your batteries are not old/outdated before you get them, and are not counterfeit.

X2, I am at 8 months on my batteries and I also leave them on while in storage.. TST 507

Don't even pull out without checking it FIRST. Saved me getting on the road with leaking tire that could have blown before they all logged on, if I hadn't turned it on half hour before hitting the road. Even with new batteries in all eight sensors it takes a while for the receiver to log them all in and read them.

Does anyone know if there are systems for 2 wheel trailers? All i can seem to find is 4 wheel.

Click on the link. I called TST direct and gave them a credit card and they sent me a kit. I bought enough sending units for the camper (4) and the truck (4). peace of mind all the way around with sensors on the camper and truck. Give them a call and they will take care of you. I had a question later and called them and had an answer right then.

if you call TST directly and talk to them, they will sell you what you want. 4/6/8/10.....22 sending units. The receiver will accommodate up to 22 tires. I bought 4 for the camper and 4 for the truck.

I have a two wheel PUP. I bought this unit, without the flow thru. No two wheel option I was told. Buy the four and have two spares. The price is cheap for the insurance it brings. Quality product.

Good luck.

I've been using the 507 for a number of years. I wouldn't tow without it. It more than pays for itself the first time it saves you. We bought ours directly from the company (in Georgia). Their price was even lower than some places on Amazon! Plus they give fantastic customer service.

Eeztire sells their monitor and sensors separately. $100 for the monitor and $38 per sensor. Like TST, if you look around, there are good references for Eeztire's units.

Purchased TireMinder TM55c for our TT from Amazon with booster and spare tire sensor, works great. Won't leave home without it.

I haven't thought about putting a sensor on the spare tire but great ideal.

Quick question for you long time TST users and or tire techies out there. I bought the TST 507 and installed it on my HTT. It seemed setup for much larger vehicles. Which took a while to dial it down to 50lbs. I couldn't find anything what the low and high pressure settings should be. I guesstimated at 47 and 55. Figured my first voyage would tell me if I guessed wrong. Anyone know what the right numbers should be?

I believe the website said high is +20% and low is -10%. There is a setup video on their website and they explain it very clearly which was nice.

I recently purchased the TST 507 and used them this past weekend. Really puts the mind at ease.

When I had some specific questions, I call TST directly and they were above and beyond customer service in 'slowly' going through all that I needed to know.

Ditto. I started out of the gate confused when setting the sensors. I called them up and told the representative from TST that I didn't get instructions in the box and only received a quick set up guide which was not working for me. She had me up and running in 3 minutes and honestly I shouldn't have had any problems. Of course when I was putting the box away I noticed in the excitement of opening the box I removed the manual and placed it on the table inside my 5er. Needless to say TST was great and cheaper then Amazon.
