Accutire MS-5510B Racing Tire Gauge

• The most accurate tire gauge available
• Reads tire pressures from 0-60PSI in 01 increments
• The quick disconnect insures a positive attachment
• Easy to read blue back-lit display
• Bleed valve to drop tire pressure to desired pressure

This gauge works well and is easy to read. It seats well and does mostly what it should.

There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding from what I have read in other reviews. Let's clear a few things up.

First of all, you do NOT have to wait ten seconds between readings. You DO have to hit the recall button on the bottom between readings.

Secondly, you DO NOT have to send the unit back to replace the batteries. The instructions VERY clearly state the model number of user replaceable batteries (if you were to read the instructions).

The hose was flexible for me in 30 degree weather contrary to what I have read elsewhere. Maybe it gets stiff in really cold weather but then I use mine in the garage.

I had the same problem described by R. Nielsen. The gauge would not take a new reading after I pressed the release valve to let air out. It only took a new reading if it was removed from the tire completely and reconnected. I called the manufacturer, who told me that it sounded like a problem and that I should return the gauge to them for a replacement. I returned it to Amazon as defective and got a new one with the same problem. I contacted the manufacturer again and they again asked me to send the gauge in for a replacement. I have sent the gauge to the manufacturer at my expense. The second replacement also had the problem. Customer service told me that they had sent the second replacement from the wrong batch/crate.

Six weeks later (November 27th) I received a properly functioning gauge. So it seems that a properly manufactured example of this gauge really does work properly. There was just a very large run of defective ones. At this point, I would give this item 3 stars: 4 for performance and price, minus one for the hassle involved in getting one that isn't defective.

If yours is defective, you should contact Accutire customer service and let them know: 973-402-4240.
