Update: Tyre Pressure Monitoring System<\/h2>\n
Hey everyone, received a TPMS for the Himmy today, which I’d ordered from Amazon a couple of days ago.<\/p>\n
Of course, there is no absolute necessity for a TPMS, but I do find it mighty convenient after getting used to it on our car; it is pretty helpful in identifying minor air leaks, pressure loss, and it also serves as a reminder to top up the air in the tyres.<\/p>\n
This particular product offers the following features as per the description:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Real-time Monitoring Pressure (Updates every 7 Seconds)<\/li>\n
- Pressure Testing Range: 0~51 Psi (0~3.5 Bar )<\/li>\n
- One can set High and Low-Pressure Alarm Values for Tires<\/li>\n
- Seven Alarm Modes (error Range \u00b12psi)<\/li>\n
- IP67 Waterproof<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

<\/p>\nIn terms of accuracy, the front sensor is 2PSI lower than the value indicated by my tyre Inflator, and the Rear Sensor is 1PSI lower, which is within the advertised error range, so I’m fine with it. The temperature is at par with the ambient temp reading on my phone for this area. The unit can also be changed to BAR if you so prefer.<\/p>\n
The Seven Alarms as advertised are for:<\/h2>\n
I haven’t personally heard any of these alarms yet.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nThe Battery in the receivers is supposed to last approximately 1-2 years, and the replacement is fairly straightforward, as per the manual. Looks like it uses some type of button cell; not sure which one yet, as I didn’t open it up. I did try removing the receiver without the included wrench and couldn’t, albeit without any tools. With a plier or something of the sort, it may be possible to remove it, but very difficult due to the thin nature of the nut. My only worry is the monitor itself. There isn’t any screen protector provided with the same, and It can easily be unscrewed. But then again, it is pointless without the receivers as they are linked and are not standalone. Then again, there is always that thought at the back of my head.<\/p>\n
If you have any solutions for the same, I’d love to hear them. I will update this thread on any other developments with the same. Cheers!<\/p>\n
