Longacre Liquid Filled Deluxe Tire Gauge 0-60 psi Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)By far, this is my fave tire gauge. This costs a bit more then 50 but it looks like (and probably will) last me a lifetime. I have never heard of this brand, so this is no "brand fan" biased review.
Pros: -The Gauge is Extremley accurate, i tested it with a 150 (roughly) dollar racing gauge at an auto shop, and it is percise to the tick.
-This gauge is oiled filled, meaning it can take shocks and sudden pressure changes quite well without losing the calibration
-There is a protective rubber bumper so you wont need to buy one
-The face is glow in the dark, which surprisingly is very useful, when you get out of the car, say at a gas station, leave it for a sec in front of the headlights and that baby will SHINE making it as easy as day to read the tick marks.
-the rubber hose is made in the US by a company called RPG, very flexible.
- BEST feature: i think is the temperature equalization screw that equalizes internal and external temps. so there is no pressure difference, making this tool very accurate. Just unscrew a little before you take the readings, and screw again by hand. voila! you are good to go
Cons: -it IS expensive, no doubt, but it will last you years assuming you take good care of it
-Shipping cost and time is okay i guess, wish it was avaliable with amazon prime
- the package might look flimsy and no instructions, but if you know anything about tire air gauges, you'll not judge this book by its cover
- the gauge lens could be made of stronger material, say glass. when i pressed on it, felt like plastic to me.Update----

I was at the gas station filling up and i routinely unscrewed the pressure equalization screw, and psssst! air escaped from the gauge! It was a hot day, and wow, i wonder the kind of readings non-equalized gauges would give with a pressure difference that big. So glad i bought this one time investment instead of going through cheap ones.
