TST 507 Flow-Thru tire monitor system

Anyone have experience with this system? Are there other flow-through systems around. Would like to hear about any system as I need to get this done before August.
Thanks

I have the
TST 507 Flow-Thru tire monitor system and really like it a lot. Just add air without removing anything and you can change the batteries yourself.
I had some problems in the beginning with losing communication, but now
installed the repeater under my coach and it works flawless. Feel much safer knowing the pressure and tire temperature going down the road.
Also TST support has been excellent.

Lots of posts here regarding TST system, mostly all favorable - especially the after the sale. I have the flow through sensors on the rear, and regular sensors on the front as the flow through being larger conflicted with the wheel cover. TST really swapped out the original flow through I had.

I really like the system. The safely aspect of course, but also the convenience of being able to do the tire pressure check during pre-flight from my easy chair.
A search will find many comments and info.

i've had mine a year now. The only negative I have is flow-rate through the transmitters, it is sloow.

TST 507 Flow-Thru tire monitor system

I gave up on the flow through --too many needed to be replaced that I lost confidence in them. But I now have their non-flow through and they seem to work better.

We just took our first trip with the TST 507 and it performed flawlessly. We didn't buy the flow through unit. We pull a 34 foot 5er and although I bought the repeater we didn't need it.

After reading several posts about TPMS systems I have decided to order the TST 507 system. We had an incident with the GMC Yukon that convinced me to research TPMS for our motorhome. Just a few miles before the Bay bridge on Rt 50 in Maryland I got a low tire warning. It was pouring rain and dark. I got off the road at a service station and got it fixed. It convinced me to order one for the RV. Thanks for all the good info.

We've had the 507 system for about 1 1/2 yrs now. When I first got it I was not happy with the flow rate through some of the sensor when adding air. Had a nice discussion with the folks at TST, no hassles or questioning my concerns, they sent me some replacement sensors that work just fine. Very happy with the system, their customer service and the peace of mind knowing my pressures and temperatures at all time. One additional note, I originally was planning to hard wire the monitor but it holds a battery charge so long I only have to charge it about once every 3 weeks, so I just attached it to the dash with velcro and I'm good to go.

I have the TST system for the coach and tow. When they work, they seem to work well. Of the original 10 I bought, 2 stopped transmitting within a couple of months. The company replaced them without any hassle. One of the replacements has worked as it's supposed to, just like the other 8. The other sensor lasted about another couple of months and stopped sending info. Again, got that same one replaced with no hassle.

Now that same sensor has stopped transmitting, and as usual I contacted the company. After talking to a lady, she referred me to a tech who said they needed to thoroughly inspect the failed sensor, and that I must send it to them for testing. It's been almost a month since they received the sensor and I haven't heard one word from them, nor have I received a replacement.

The only request I had was for them to send me a new sensor, and not a refurbished one. Because of the same sensor failing, I'm left to presume that they sent me a used, or refurbished, one that continued to fail. I sure would like to have the sensor replaced soon so I can have info coming from all the tires.
