Search and you will find several threads for TST. I have a TST 507 - works great. TST's support is excellent, IMO.

I have been using TST for several years. They work as advertised. Mine uses the old style sensors which you have to send in to have recharged. They are starting to go out after a couple of years. Called company and they said if I would remove them when not in use they would last twice as long. I may get the newer technology where you can change the batteries yourself. Haven't decided yet.
The only drawback for me is the the alert sound is out of my hearing range, but that's ok because dw can hear a rabbit pissin' on a cotton ball which is not always a good thing for me. Also, for the heat sensor to work properly you will need metal valve stems.

TST has become very popular among our members but use the search feature and you'll find a lot of reading material about it.

TST also minitors this forum & replies to questions quite often.

I just ordered the TST 507 kit with 12 sensors for truck and trailer with the replaceable batteries from Diana @ Plugitright I like dealing with them and purchased my Maxbrake controller from them as well. I should have them in a few days and will report back.

I used the TST system for my trailer, 6 Sensors. Works great, my only complaint is that the monitor in the truck goes into sleep mode too often, I prefer it stays on.

Now that lady has some acute hearing. We're thinking about trying the 507 series of TST or this other brand.
