LED Tire Pressure Alert Value Caps

Tweet

Developed by VECSAFE, these LED valve caps, quite apart from being supremely geeky, could actually help you save money and overt potential accidents by lighting up whenever they detect a drop in tyre pressure.

Calibrated to be compatible with tyre pressure between 20 and 120psi these clever LED Valve Caps will not only memorise the tire pressure on any tire they are fitted but are also sensitive enough to recognise a drop in tire pressure as little as 9psi. To put this in perspective, according to figures provided on the product’s official web page, when tire pressures drop as little as 2.96psi this equates to a loss of 4 cents per gallon of fuel (based on fuel efficiency of 20mpg and fuel costs of £2.00 per gallon – or, if you’re in the UK, that’s roughly the cost of this month’s mortgage repayment).

Manufactured from chrome plated heavy duty brass, the LED Tire Pressure Alert Valve Caps retail at $4.99 per unit and can be obtained via this link.
