This is part three of our how to change a tire the gadget way series. We’ve had the tire condom (to keep clean), the electric car jack (to conserve energy) and now we have the digital tire pressure gauge.

After changing your tire you now need to make sure it’s hard enough for the job which is where the digital pressure gauage comes in, simply place it on the tires nozzle and read the oressure on the LCD.

Properly inflated tires can help to save gas and ensure better handling from your automobile. You don’t need to go to the gas station to check your tire pressure. The Digital Tire Gauge is a handheld pressure gauge that displays each tire’s air pressure with the press of a button. You’ll appreciate the large backlit display and illuminated tip that allows easy reading in the dark.

The Digital Tire Gauge is made of a heavy metal die cast with shockproof rubber guard and molded finger grips. It’s small enough to keep in your glove compartment at all times, so you’ll have instant access to it when you need it. Batteries are pre-installed, and the Digital Tire Gauge turns off automatically after 15 seconds, so the batteries won’t be wasted.

The Digital Tire Gauge is available from Smart Home for $19.99.

nb. For those who don’t know what a tire is, it’s a tyre when spelt correctly
