That's great to know! I too have 4 different air gauges and get 4 different readings with a range of 10 psi rendering them basically useless.

I took my digital gauge along to check my snowmobile trailer tires this year. The sorry thing would not work at near zero temperatures. My cheap Slime gauge worked fine and I found a tire very low due to the metal valve stem leaking. Sometimes cheap and simple is the best.

I also got the Accutire, hoping for better accuracy, but found it a pain to get a reading on the duallies. I ended up going back to pencil style.
