Accutire MS-4350B Programmable Digital Tire Gauge

I read many of the reviews on Amazon before purchasing the Accutire MS-4350B. Several reviewers mentioned the difficulty getting the gauge to seal well because of the absence of a rubber o-ring (and several of those bought o-rings from a hardware store to remedy this problem). Others mentioned that Accutire has now started to make these gauges with factory-installed o-rings. I was glad to receive mine with this apparently important modification. Nevertheless, when I tried it on my first tire, I didn't get the angle right immediately, so quite a bit of air escaped. It took the simplest of adjustments to fix this problem. I USED TWO HANDS. By doing so, I could minimize wiggling to the right or left and could easily apply enough force to seal it up right away. It's not necessary to go into contortions to see the reading while applying the gauge because, within a few seconds, it beeps to let you know an accurate reading has been obtained. It continues to display the reading for about ten seconds after removing the gauge from the tire. I didn't really miss the absence of an air release valve, since I found it was easy to purposely over-inflate each tire a bit and then let the air out in 0.5 increments by just holding the gauge at a slight angle. Very precise. This gauge is the easiest to use of any I've ever had. I hope it has a long life.

I'm giving this product 1 star, only bacause 0 stars are not allowed.

Product worked fine....for the first 3x I used it over a 4 month period. Then, the batteries just died...apparently. Opening the unit reveals (2) 3V watch batteries. "Perfo" brand.

I repeat...."Perfo". (Doesn't even Google - try it!) "Perfo" must be the Jack in the Box of watch batteries.

In any event, I can either spend the $14 on 2 quality replacement batteries, or invest in a better product. Can you guess which way I'm leaning. (I knew ya could)

This product is very handy. The product would make a good gift for somebody or keep it for yourself.

Regardless of how much air is in the tires, it tells us they are at 36 or 37 psi. usefull.

Accutire MS-4350B tire pressure reader works very well, and i hope it is accurate (or else i'm driving around with under/over inflated tires). What it is missing is a air pressure release valve, which would be helpful.

The only other criticism is that the tip needs to be placed precisely around the valve stem or you lose air - some other air pressure readers have more of a grace zone, not this one. For the price, it works for me!
