Angarak Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Just thought I'd post this here as it may be a promising product once mass produced: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/fobo-tire-world-s-first-all-bluetooth-smart-tpms Basically you get a set of 4 bluetooth sensors for each wheel which bond with your smartphone to give you realtime pressure info. If they get robbed take some comfort knowing the thief cant use them as they are tied to your FOBO Cloud Account...though you'll still obviously be annoyed Alternatively for those with a death like grip on their wallets, purses or manbags, just nip to your local petrol station and pop 50p in to check your tire pressures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Even OE tyre pressure sensors and systems can be an expensive nightmare, these needless gizmos, especially cheap aftermarket variants are just more junk to go wrong, and more, (usually messy), wiring draped behind the dash. Having new tyres fitted to modern cars is now a lottery of whether they break a pressure sensor, or the banging about knackers it up.
