Accutire MS-4751WC Digital Programmable Tire Gauge with Light Reviews
There is just not enough room to get this gauge onto my stems with a decent fit, instead I end up just leaking huge amounts of air and not having any confidence in the reading. Having a couple of vehicles I always want to double check the values, and this is perfect for that. What is really good about this gauge, is it is big, it has a nice sweeping design and the screen is very easy to read. Unfortunately the bad with this gauge are the same, due to its size and swoop design I can not use this with my motorcycle. I really like that you set the pressure you want for your tires and it remembers them. This is a very nice two handed gauge, but it will not work universally and no matter how nice it is, if it can not determine your pressure it is of no use.
Once you've pushed it onto the valve stem, hold for 1 or 2 seconds and the unit will beep and give you the reading. To respond to some of the more common criticisms I see in the other reviews here, first of all, I have relatively small hands for a man, but I have had no difficulty in handling and using this air gauge. I can highly recommend this one. Overall, a really rock solid product that works extremely well, easy to use, and appears to be very accurate in measurement. Very simple with large, easy to read display with blue lighted background and a light button mounted like a trigger to illuminate the valve stem in dark conditions. The round shape with rubberized grip, along with the weight of the unit, makes it very easy to handle and quite easy to push onto the valve stem of the tire.
Easy to see for those older users who need reading glasses. Works great and comes with a nice case to keep it clean.
I sent an email to the customer service department and never heard from them. It looks like a good product- sturdy, easy to operate, well designed. Goody- now I get to pay for postage, too. But when I first tried to use it, it said the batteries were low and wouldn't give me a reading. I'd assumed that the two batteries that came with it must have been bad, so i went looking for replacements, which cost about $12 for the pair. Finally spoke to someone on the phone the other day, and they sounded annoyed with me but agreed to replace the unit with a new one if I sent it to them. I put them in, the unit worked great on two tires, then the batteries were said to be low again.
The reading is easy to see and I like the tool overall but if it fails to test easily throw the thing away. I was raised in a big rig shop and have been around mechanics for 50 years and one of the requirements I have for a tire gage is that it is easy to take a reading and is easy to seat the gage on the valve stem. This POS does read well but takes 2 hands to seat the gage.
