I got the TST 507 flow through also, haven't used them yet but very happy with there customer service and a three year warranty. Not so happy with Vulcan tire customer service.

Heady, my mistake. I ordered something else from Tweety's. Got a 5% discount. I paid about the same as you did for the TST 507 with the flow thru sensors directly from TST. I did buy the repeater based on advise from TST.

Shorty Cox, if you are interested I have a TST TM-507Rv set. I bought and used for 1 trip from Maryland to Florida and back. Everything in original box with instructions. Some things never opened. I got 4 sensors. I believe I bought it straight from TST. I will sell it to you for $100.00. Just after that trip I became a camp host at our local state park. I only tow about 40 miles a year now. If you are interested I'll send you some pictures.

I have the TST 507 non-flow through sensor system and a signal booster is not needed for my rig. I have 8 sensors and I do have metal valve stems. My system is over two years old and it gives me great peace of mind when towing. I used to continually look in my mirrors expecting to see rubber and pieces of my 5'er littering the road behind me. Now I still look back obviously, but I'm looking for traffic catching me vs slinging pieces of rubber. My system saved me one time when I didn't tighten a sensor enough after adding some air to one of the tires the night before I left on a trip. The next morning after leaving my site the TST alarm sounded after I had moved about 50'. The tire had leaked down to just under my low pressure set point. I aired the tire back up and closely monitored the pressure for the day's trip. Since the pressure didn't leak down any all day I know I was the cause of the pressure drop.
TST507 is a great system in my book.

These little devices really look nice and provide some peace of mind, but the price is pretty expensive... imo!
Regular tire check and maintenance can also help....
If they would sell these for like 79-139$ US, that would be a fair price... but 259-359$ is for me not something I am willing to pay....

Here's a more affordable model

Might not have all the bells and whistle of the others, but still serves the purpose!

Interesting stuff Salsa. I also see the sensors are labeled RR, RF... which is a nice touch.

Sometimes company have the arm too long when they come and dig in our pockets...
And although safety is something you don't want to mess with, there's a point where my wallet say F* safety!

I have heard about folks like you. Pass them on the side of the road all the time.

Had the dealer put in `Dully Valves' & I then install a Doran 360 14 senser (6 on the rig, 2 on the dolly + spare tire, 4 on toad + spare tire) TPMS system before it left the lot. It's saved my butt a couple of times. Will NOT move rig without it!

In my years of RVing I've seen so many on the side of the road also...
The type that never look after their RV before they head off, never do a check around their rig when they stop for a fuel up or lunch
And lots of idiots that drive our roads with TT or 5th wheels too heavy for their TV....
I'm in the "I drive safe" category.... and what were people doing 10yrs ago, 20yrs ago??? these devices didn't exist!!!

You are right about things changing. 20 to 30 years ago the rving lifestyle was just getting started for many and the quality if tires were better. I'm just saying that some technology is worth a part of our lifestyle too! Checking tire pressures before leaving and at each stop is great but now I can see what is happening real time on pressure and temps.
Just another tool to make me and mine safer.
I can't put a price tag on that.

I put a price tag on something that costs 20$ to produce and is being sold 300$!
But I understand what you mean... I'll probably look into the cheaper model I linked earlier, that seems like a more reasonable price!

Well, I just purchased the TST 507 with 6 flow through sensors. I'll let you know how it goes.
