Default Tire Pressure Gauge Recommendations

I'm looking for a recommendation on a tire pressure gauge.

I have a handheld electronic gauge which I purchased cheap. I also have an integrated gauge on a fill hose which attaches to my compressor. This I spent quite a bit more for.

I have found that the cheap handheld seems to be more accurate than the more expesive integrated gauge. After filling to the desired pressure with the integrated gauge the tires look soft and feel very soft when driving. This prompted me to double check with the cheap handheld and I found the values to be 4-6 lbs light.

Any recommendation on a good, high quality, accurate gauge that won't break the bank?

Thanks,
Dave

I have always had excelent results with Longacre tire gauges, particularly their "Deluxe" and "Pro" models.
