    If you're implying that it's a silly idea, I agree with you.

    The solar heating aspect of this is a distraction. Compared to the heat generated by rolling friction, I think it's probably negligible. But technically, if you had uneven tyre pressures to begin with and then drove with the higher pressure side facing the sun, the sun would make the imbalance that tiny bit worse.

    Come on guys, nobody's saying you've been doing it wrong. People are just tinkering with ideas for making things better, if possible. There are some technical reasons why airing 2 or 4 tyres at a time can result in more even pressure distribution than doing them one at a time. At the same time, I keep saying it isn't a big deal...

    Wow, as the one who started this thread, I had no idea it would go this far!!
    It's all rather academic as the South Africans don't ship OS (or not without a lot of stuffing around)
    And I just tried reading the US website, and got lost and lost interest!!!! I'm currently in the US and have emailed the maker to see what I can find out.
    Thanks for everyone's input.

    Why don't you make your own?
    The most expensive part would be the gauge, and you could use a ball valve for the air release with a male quick connect on it to connect to the compressor.
    You buy everything you need from a hardware shop.

    I woke up this morning and thought exactly the same thing!
    There is no rocket science involved, and I've got all the bits back home in Adelaide.
