I got a nice $20 one off of turn one racing, durable and has a little rubber condom on it to protect it from the jagermonster. Very accurate and a big readout, I forget who makes it.

bought mine from murphys. it's a small keychain style, digital and it's easy to fit the guage and your fat hand in to the wheel to take a reading. it will also keep the reading for a few seconds so that you don't have to be looking at the screen when you take the reading. it's about 2 inches long and an oval shape with 1 button. i think it cost me about $12.

Pretty sure Turn One Racing handles this brand as well.
I have the Road Gear Digital as well and have found it to be as accurate as the more expensive brands.

Stick gauges and digital gauges do not lose calibration.... and they are durable.
The really cool dial gauges are easy to use and read but need periodic calibration.
Cheap FTW !

While your at it, get one of these, better than a penny for checking tread depth.
I actually had a friend at Deals Gap want to change his tires because he didn't think he had enough tread depth to start a track day, he was way over the minimum requirement, so he saved the new tires for another day. It's nice to know what you have left.

Im looking for a air/tire filler for my compressor with a gauge on it with a STRAIGHT end on it - not the double foot on the end. I struggle with those on my van. I cant find one anywhere.
Ideas?
