Valve Stem Pressure Indicators

I looked into these a year or two ago and was put off them for some reason.

However, recently I've had a tyre running 3 - 4psi down on what it should have been when I checked them.

I've taken another look at them and was wondering if they are any better now? Does anyone on here have them or have any thoughts on them?

I have read about them causing flats if the lose the internal rubber seal or causing issues due to the centripetal force they exert on the stem.

Ana alternative for me would be to get a digital gauge or similar from a popular internet auction site.

Wasn't smart arsed answer.

If you fix leak then other issue will be moot.

I could have said ' suggest you get to root cause of the problem '

Issue is fixed. Want to get a warning of these before they become noticeable as it will affect the wear.
