Replying to: bottgers (Oct 09, 2005 8:38 am) Nextech is just a Circuit City house brand. As noted elsewhere on this thread, Accutire is the brand of the Virginia importer of a Chinese line of tire gauges. Chances are the one you see at Circuit City with Circuit City's house brand is identical. Similarly, Monkey Grip is a line of Chinese-made tire gauges you can buy at many auto parts shops, but go to an Ace hardware store, and you will find identical tire gauges there under the Ace brand: the two are identical except for the printing on the cardboard the bubble plastic is attached to.

Replying to: tosh (Jul 22, 2006 8:31 am) Personally, I think digital gauges are more hype. I have a digital (highly rated). And I have a pencil gauge from the emergency kit of a '91 Taurus. They consistently read within a pound of each other. I like the pencil gauge better actually. It fits better over the valve and takes an instant reading. I can do two tires in the time it takes the digital to do one. Of course, it does not have a techie digital display

it's been a long time since anybody posted a gauge comment so i will share with you the truth about the gauge. accuracy of the gauge is secondary based on calibration variances. the real issue is that you own one and use it once a week. Replies to this message: shortlid (Nov 14, 2007 7:35 pm)
#71 of 71 Tire Minder digital by shortlid Nov 14, 2007 (7:35 pm)
Replying to: okko1 (Jun 23, 2007 6:35 pm) I have a small digital gauge, says Tire Minder on it. Who makes this unit, how does it work?
