Thats interesting, EC kinda disagreed with that. Their results showed that
the Accutire digital guage from Griots Garage was economical and extremely
accurate. We all know that EC can fudge things though. But, its also
possible that the manufacturers could have created more accurate, functional
guages. I guess I'll just have to try and then check the results with a
functioning pencil type. My own side-by-side comparison.

A few months back there was an article in EC that reviewed different
digital air pressure guages. I have a hankering to have one so I
can a) be manly with more gadgets and b) be a huge dork and know the
exact amount of tire pressure I have. If someone who gets the
magazine and also has a scanner scan this for me it would make my
day. Thanks in advance.
Word to the wise: Motorcycle Consumer News did a review of pressure
gages a few years back. Their overall finding was that the digital
gages looked really cool and worked really poorly. Lousy accuracy,
lousy precision. They recommend using a classic pencil style gage.
Their top performer was the Syracuse part #35-0447.
