Good tire pressure gauge?

Thanks for this thread.
I just picked up a "blem" Longacre digital gauge at a decent discount.
Lot's of stuff on their "refurb" list which includes blems, last year's models, etc.

I didn't realize they were just up the road from me. Not sure who I spoke with but they were pleasant and helpful and easy to deal with over the phone, too.
Thanks again.

Sometimes I think that this is the best piece of equipment I have ever bought. They are well made and accurate.

I have used many different brands and styles. Longacre is good, Intercomp is not worth the trouble, Joe's is good. I like my Pressure Inc digital.
If you want the one that Indycar and F1 teams use (www.m-a-horne.co.uk/ - about $350) Why is it so expensive?? because it is nearly unbreakable, it has a sensor that zeroes to ambient atmospheric pressure. If you are setting tire pressures to 0.1 PSI, then this is the gauge. If you (and me and 95% of the motorsport competitors) are setting to 0.5 ro 1.0 PSI, then the "normal" gauges are fine - analog or digital.

I think I got ripped many years ago. At a VENDOR's trailer at Road Atlanta last weekend, my exact same gauge was running $29.95. Dang. Still a great gauge after ten years of use - checked it again the guys at Goldcrest Porsche and it was dead-on.
