Craftsman Programmable Digital Tire Gauge $11 + Free In-Store Pickup

Quote from Medic311 : the dealership said my headlight pressure was low and said it needed to be refilled for $179. i said what is headlight pressure? he said there is a promo now for $149. i said that's a great deal can this measure headlight pressure so it doesn't get to low next time?

do you drive a bmw?

that's the only thing i can think of that has headlight pressure washers for mud and such. and he wants to replace the cylinder...

or maybe pop up headlights.

Quote from z(+)diac : After the last "free instore pickup" fiasco with Kmart, I'm finished with Sears Holdings' companies.

You were hold hostage too?! What a nightmare!

Just ordered one at 1:00 and was ready for pick-up within 45 mins. Was in and out of K-Mart within 5 mins...not bad at all.

Quote from Medic311 : you killed it

what.. its a legit part name.. i was just wondering.

Sigh.

Does anyone know if Sears will match the price ? Shipping is unavailable for me and can't order for Kmart store pickup anymore because our store is in the final stages of closing down.

I bought one. I live only four blocks from the store, and have never had a problem with pick-up. I love these KMart deals on Craftsmen tools. I looked at this very same gauge not long ago at Sears - this is a great deal.

Quote from SOC6-SOC7 : can you use this gauge on liquid filled tires?

Who fills their tires with liquids?

Quote from michi098 : I bought one of these after spending many dollars on cheap regular and electronic gauges: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/...UTF8&psc=1 I don't use my gauge often, maybe three or four times a year. You can guarantee that when you need it the most, the batteries will be dead. This gauge is a little more, but I have had it for a few years now and it's accurate, withstands abuse and never needs batteries. Sometimes it's worth spending a bit more, and actually, this isn't really much more...

To add another, this one is on par with the expensive Longacre gauges, a LOT cheaper, and just as durable:

I picked mine up a little over a year ago, and it matches up perfectly with borrowed racer gauges from friends, is easy to read, and also never runs out of batteries. I might have to get one of those Accu-Gage EZs just to see how accurate it is- I like the air fitting on the back end.

Quote from YoStix : Who fills their tires with liquids?

I know a few farmers that fill up their tractor tires with water first to increase weight before pressurizing with air...

Tried via chat - no luck

Quote from YoStix : Who fills their tires with liquids?

People with tractors or other off road equipment that need extra traction or counter weight.

took 2 hours to get pickup e mail. no problem at the pickup at K Mart...was suprised

tested the guage and it works great

Quote from jottect : Is this usable if I have nitrogen in my tires...?

Yes.

Quote from bgammill : You must multiply the reading by 1.25 to allow for the missing Oxygen... <snip> JK

What? No, not even close. Please don't spread misinformation. Pressure is pressure, regardless if it's compressed air, nitrogen, argon, CO2, water, etc.

[edit] Ugh, you assclown. I didn't see the "JK" until after I posted! [/edit]

Quote from YoStix : Who fills their tires with liquids?

I do for one. My tractor runs -100 antifreeze year round in front and rear tires, ATV gets filled during winter. Demo-Derby guys liquid fill if the promoter doesn't allow concrete, sand, etc. Depending on the trails, my Jeep may get water filled.

Meiser makes great quality gauges. I have an assortment of their gauges in 0-15, 0-30, 0-60 and 0-100psi ranges. I'll have to check out that EZ Gauge that you linked to. That would be handy to keep in the glove box for gas stations on road trips.

My fiance had a Craftman digital gauge in her car when we got together years ago, actually looked a lot like the one the OP posted about. I threw it away the first time I went to use it and the batteries were dead. I replaced it with a 0-60 Accu Gage.
