Do you really want your tools to talk back? Well, with the Accutire pressure gauge, sure. Why not.
The audible readout is handy when you’re checking tire pressure at night or in a dimly lit garage. The LCD display is a little hard to read in low-light conditions, making the audible feature all the more important.
This gauge feels good in your hand and it has a little nubbin on top to help deflate tires.
My biggest problem with this gauge is that it is battery powered and has no low battery indication. Mine started to malfunction one morning–it took a pressure reading of 28 PSI and then wouldn’t clear. The battery is a button-cell, meaning that you’re not likely to have a spare handy and it’s pesky to remove.
My recommendation–around the garage this thing is a gem. But on the trail, I make sure I carry a mechanical dial gauge.
