KINDOY2 Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 Is there a consensus of opinion on what is the best quality tire pressure gauge. I have tried so many different ones over the years, and have always tried to buy the best quality..but so far I have never been able to find one that will last more than a couple years before it becomes inaccurate and worthless....very annoying! Has someone found an accurate and dependable one they like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 I learned about JACO from a trusted friend, SpineRaider, and expert technician. I like the analog dial, built in pressure relief valve, and angled chuck (they have other products and configurations): https://jacosuperiorproducts.com/collections/tire-pressure-gauges/products/tire-pressure-gauge-elitepro-series-100-psi 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pressureangle Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 I have a Blue-Point made by Jaco that's about ... 40? Years old now. Doesn't have the safety relief but has been reliable, accurate, and consistent across time. I did have to replace the plastic disc in the pressure release button once about 15 years ago. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, I havn't had much luck with any of the Blue-point stuff I have purchased over the past 10 years, I used to think it was very good.

I haven't had much luck with *anything* I've purchased over the past 10 years. I assume anything new is Harbor Freight, regardless of the label. The Chinese Conspiracy is pervasive. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KINDOY2 Posted May 23 Author Report Share Posted May 23 The one that just failed me was Motion Pro..it lasted about 3 years of infrequent use. The one I had before that was Blue Point Digital..I think it held together 1.5 years.... Not like I abuse them..I don,t throw them around..I want them to last..but this last Motion pro has just decided last week to read 9-12 lbs high every time..:-(, The needle wont go back to zero anymore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
