Seems to take time to pair up sensors at each startup
Stan A.
Great product. Easy to install - works great. One of the sensors didn't register - turns out the battery was a bit low. I replaced it and it worked fine. They sent me a new battery, which I didn't request. Great customer service.

Would definitely suggest the pre-programming option as setting the pressure isn't that difficult, but selecting the trailer configuration is (the system is designed for trucks with many more tires).
One issue I'm having after 500 miles - I have the AS OEM tires and valve stems and the (cap not flow thru) sensors are clearly moving while in motion and leaving marks on the rims. I'm not so concerned about whether these marks are permanent, but after some reading on airforums, I'm concerned about damage to the stems, which would be a darkly ironic situation. It does seem to work well, so I'm weighing whether it's worth changing the valve stems to use it.

Took a 6 week trip out west (from South Carolina) and while in Tuscon I went into store. Great visit - added 2 items to improve camping experience 1) TPMS and (2) 50' curly water hose. Both as advertised -- high quality and big improvements. I have bought other items on-line (blankets, books, etc) but I was curious about store. Good products & good people. I'll use them again.

Works well; effective in monitoring tire pressure.
Conflicts with backup camera power supply.

Excellent addition to my Airstream equipment, True bit of Piece of Mind

An additional margin of safety while towing. Airstream Life Store preprogrammed the unit to our desired PSI, and it was pretty much plug and play. Two holes to drill in the battery box to mount the repeater, a simple 12v power connection, and we are in business! The display sits on the dash on a non-slip pad, is easy to read, and charges with a USB connection. We have a 1,000 mile + tow coming up. We’re going to appreciate that extra margin of safety of being advised of low tire pressure or heat buildup, hopefully preventing an accident or damage o our Airstream from a blowout.
The programming of the sensors looks a little complicated, so we really appreciated getting the unit set up and ready to go. Thank you Airstream Life Store!

Our TST tire pressure monitoring system came pre-programmed and was essentially ‘plug and play’. It looks like the programming can be a little tricky, so this was a nice bonus. We’re looking forward to that added safety margin, and, who doesn’t like a tecky toy that keeps you safer. The staff at Airstream Life Store are always friendly, knowledgeable, and patient with newbies. A pleasure to do business with!

It brings peace of mind when you know your tires are in good shape when your driving through rush hour traffic in Atlanta. Also when you are travelling at 70 mph in the middle of a group of tractor trailers.

I have installed the tire Monoriting Sytem on the trailer/TV but have yet to try it on the road. The transaction was flawless though...Airstream Life rocks!
Carolyn D.
We really appreciated knowing what was happening with our trailer tires on what has been our longest trip yet in our Basecamp 20x. It gave us a tremendous peace of mind! This is a must have from a safety point of view.
Patrick A.
Very easy to install and use. Great safety item for any trailer. Very nice to have it arrived pre-programmed.
Thanks!
janet m.
Works as described
Lillian H.
Very nice to have received the system already programmed. Took less than five minutes and we are up and running.
Rick B.
I have a six tire system on my 34 ft. Excella. It is comforting to be able to monitor tire pressure on the road. A friend blew a tire on his SOB and didn't know for several miles. Needless to say he did a great amount of damage to his trailer.
I bought this system for our second trailer, a 25 ft. Safari. I went with Airstream life store because they set the pressure parameters for me, not a big chore but still it takes time. The price was competitive with other vendors. Shipping was fast and I appreciated getting the system from someone who knows a little about Airstreams.

Hard to read in daylight.
Joachim H.
simple to install and maintain, clearly gives you a great piece of mind rather than worrying and wondering about the trailer tires 'behind you'
Jeff R.
What a peace of mind. Just took the maiden voyage pulling our Airstream International 30’from Oklahoma to Tennessee. Hooked up the repeater and has continuous temps and pressures the whole time. Won’t travel with a trailer without the TPMS. Thanks for setting the tire pressures for me!
Chanda C.
All I can say is it's worth the piece of mind. I believe in good tires,but things can happen. I travel some without the husband. If your investing in an airstream, this is just another small investment. The TST came programmed from the lifestyle store with detail instructions (handwritten). It was easy peasy to install.
Rand T.
Ordering from AirstreamLife was the best part of the experience. They preset everything according to my instructions which made it super easy to install and start using immediately. Great Customer Service!
Renée T.
We just returned from a road trip to the north and were so thankful that we purchased this monitoring system! Our very first day we were in heavy traffic near DC and the system's alarm went off saying that we were losing air pressure fast on our Airstream tire. We had no warning and could not yet feel anything going on with the tire and were able to pull off the exit safely and change it. I would recommend this product 100%, as it worked beautifully and saved us from what could have been a dangerous situation.

I actually bought a ten (10) sensor unit. Four sensors for my truck (plus one for the spare tire), and four sensors for the twin-axle trailer (plus one for the spare tire). I bought the cap sensors, because the rims on my 2007 Safari did not have enough clearance with the steel valve stems to support the flow-thru sensors. The steel valve stems point directly toward the center of the hub of the rim. I mounted the signal repeater on the trailer frame between the battery box and the front storage compartment of the trailer. The antenna of the signal repeater sticks up just above the steel frame of the trailer. It is hard-wired into the battery, so I can pull the signal repeater fuse if I will not be using the trailer for a while to help prevent any drain on the battery. The display unit sits in the storage tray at the top center of the dash of my 2018 RAM 2500. It works as designed, and I am able to keep track of all of my tires without having to leave the truck. It takes about 2-3 minutes to display the temperature and pressure information for all of my tires after it is powered on. It was well worth the purchase price for me to have the peace of mind knowing that all is well with all of my tires (especially my spares). I was reminded of this when I was driving down the road, and passed a truck and RV trailer on the side of the road changing a trailer tire. It was obvious that the driver did not know he had a flat tire on the trailer, as the trailer tire was completely shredded. The TPMS would have alerted them to the issue before the trailer tire was completely destroyed.

Another great product that was introduced to us by Airstream Life!

Having them preset the PSI on the sending units made install a breeze.
John N.
Received monitor in record time and it was programmed, and ready for installation! Communication was personal and feel we have a partner with Airstream Store. I am now purchasing all my needs from them!! TST worked great and performs as advertised. No problems so far! Thank you!
Brad S.
I upgraded to this unit from a Tire Minder. It gives me all the information I want to see and allows alarms to be set too. The size of the display is very easy to view while driving.
Rush B.
Easy install, works perfectly!
Daniel J.
The cost is much less then if I would split/blow a tire with the collateral damage to the Airstream underbody! I had trouble with the set up as the sales rep did not set everything correctly at first but he talked me through on the phone later! They did not stay for the whole week but closed their booth two days early! It is great to follow things as the temp/changes with the pressure & road surface. I trust I can call again anytime for more more guidance/questions.
Edward F K.
The Tire Monitor Worked Perfect! At The International Rally 2 Of Our Tires Were Low It Picked It Right Up! Even If You Check Them Always This Unit Make Sure Of The Pressure And When Traveling The Heat Too Avoid A Major Problem On The Road!
Johnni H.
I plugged it in and it worked right away. The salesman never told me about the washer that needed to be installed. A neighbor told me so I added them. One tire went down to 70 psi and boy did it alarm. Scared me.

Cross country adventure total 4000 miles. TPMS made the trip a lot more enjoyable with constant tire pressure monitoring. The peace of mind provided by this product is invaluable. The easy to use features make this a simple to use piece of technology that is essential to safely monitor the tires temperature and pressure. Easy to set up, the owners manual is easy to understand and the unit comes with two handy stands for set up in any car or truck.
The TPMS was a little expensive however the cost of the technology is well worth the value created.
Gary A.
Ordered and unit arrived very timely. Communication on order processing and shipping progress/arrival very helpful. I ordered the unit not programed to the sensors as I always want to fully understand my equipment. Instruction manual was well written allowing me to program and have the system operational within a few minutes. System starts up quickly while I hitch-up. Everything was as promised and explained in Rich's video. Had pease of mind on the road during our first 150 mile trip. Gary A. Olympia, WA
Donald W.
Really liked the fact that the monitor is battery operated.
I only have so many 12 volt outlets in the truck, and other equipment has claimed those.
Great service that Airstream life set up the pleasure settings to my specs before shipping it out.
I will travel more relaxed knowing my tires are being monitored.
Luis C.
The TMS is a great addition to our towing kit. It is an excellent product with great reviews.
James B.
I bought it to use with my Basecamp and it works great. Since the trailer is short, I did not even bother to install the booster and their is no problem getting the signals to the sensor. I am very pleased with my purchase. The only negative I can think of it the display brightness. It needs to be brighter. As it is, it is difficult to read while wearing sunglasses
Patricia S.
Came properly programmed for me, just put on the sensors and was in business- easy to read and looks easy to use
David C.
Having tire pressure monitors brings peace of mind when towing. The consequences of a blowout could be huge. The TST system was easy to set up and use, and it has performed flawlessly so far.
Sidney T.
Works great. Easier to set up than I thought.
Charles W.
Had a few difficulties setting the unit up and getting good readings from all four sensors. Called & spoke to TST factory service rep, who helped me work thru the issues. Happy to report, all is good!
lynn A.
So far so good……works as advertised. Best recommendation I can give is that we would buy it again…
Laura C.
Works perfectly and provides great peace of mind.

We are new to both RVing and Airstream, and making sure we are as safe as we can be. I knew a TPMS was on our list of “must haves.” I actually ordered a TPMS from Amazon but when I went to program it, found the instructions complicated. I wasn’t confident I had it done right so I returned it. I looked here at Airstream Life, saw their video about TPMS in which they said they would program it. What a service, can’t beat that. I subsequently ordered it on a Sunday and chatting with someone from Airstream Life through their website and asked if they would program it. They did. Terrific service.
Patrick W.
Was impressed with the quick response to any set up and use questions.
Robert S.
Works well I think. Programming is very difficult
Lewis F.
I wish that I had switched to this TPMS system 2 years ago. I love that it monitors the tire temperature and the pressure. Oh and did I mention it also monitors the spare. OBTW, it arrived all set up for my specific tires, so it was “plug and play” right out of the box.
Gary Lyles
Thank the goodness I ordered this TPMS!!!
I recently received the TST and installed it early this week on my Airstream 27FB for a 300+ mile trip I’m taking this weekend. I didn’t even hit the road (and thank goodness I didn’t), I discovered a slow leak with one of the tires. Turned out it was a bad valve stem. Without the TPMS, there is a very real possibility I would not have discovered this issue until I was on the road and damage may have ensued to my Airstream. Thank goodness for the sometimes annoying email ads (kinda kidding here lol )from Airstream Life, otherwise I would never have followed through with purchasing a TPMS. I’m so glad I did! Thank you so much Airstream Life for possibly saving me thousands of dollars in damage to my Airstream! If there is anyone out that is ‘on the fence’ in deciding to purchase a TPMS, I very highly recommend you purchase one, particularly the TST. I have found the TST very easy to use. Again, thanks Airstream Life! You have a customer for Life!
Lewis Fogel
Love that you programmed the TST for me
Yesterday I received my new TST Tire Monitoring System. You folks programmed it for me and all I had to do was “plug and play.” Thank you, I love it.
Jim5
Well done!
Great article. I was surprised you singled out a brand, but we Debbie and I agree completely. We replaced our eight year-old TPMS this summer with the TST. Impressive!
It's all the things your article claims plus the rechargeable battery goes a long long time. We charged it over a month ago and have towed over 2,000 miles without recharging. We really like this TST unit better.
Marcie
TST two thumbs up
Great peace of mind
