Specific tyre deflator wanted

That would be them,

Thanks Ed.

Andrew

thats an excellent test, should be a permanent link to it on this site!

Thanks for the test.

I don't have any tyre deflators, besides my ignition key, which works well.
If you have the time, wonder if you could answer a simple question?

These tyre deflators, from my reading, seem to be preset to a particular pressure. i.e. 34 to 10 psi in your test.

What happens when you don't want 10 psi, do you need to reset the deflator again.

i.e. I have four main pressures I run, which I dial in for a day or so as required. Run 45/55 on bitumen fully loaded in 10 ply LTs.
34 psi front/38psi rear for high speed (90km/hr) dirt roads out west.
30/34 for slower dirt roads and larger corrugations
25/28 psi for firm sand and beach, and muddy tracks.
20/24 for softer sand. lower if dry powdery sand.

Now I have a CT, it runs about the same if not 4 psi lower than the front, depending on load.

So do I need a set of deflators for each set of pressures?

G'day Derek,
good compare site and interesting though that the Currie-EZ deflator is the ARB deflator sold here in OZ and it ranked 3rd, but it's biggest advantage was the attached gauge.
Makes her feel good she bought 1 for my birthday last year. :>))
She listens.....sometimes.
Av a good 1

I was thinking a No. 2 Phillips head screwdriver would do the trick with my left front tyre. :-)

I was talking to a friend today when he noticed the lovely screw stuck in it and we got to talking about these deflators that he has on his keyring. I am interested to see what they are like for the price.

Nice left-field idea Phil.....though i still want one of these for other reasons. I wasn't after a what's best thread, more of a what are these like and where can you get them.
