Rod,
Zylux have the Tyredog system, they ran an advertising campaign on the Forum before Christmas last year when they released the product, they still have an ad in our directory and on the All Terrain Tyres Page

Good technology - worth a look.

John

Ho-Hum John,
Do some research and then bleat. I know many who have both, and the cheap copies are not cutting the mustard.

Feel free to choose whatever you like........................but I apologise if my views dont necessarily match your learned views.

Matt

Matt its not a slinging match of whos best.
A simple point that almost everything comes from china now,
and its not all bad....regardless of brand badging
John

John,
Last thing I wish to do is start a slanging match mate.

But, I never said that all things that are Chinese made are bad. However, in this instance I know people who have had problems with THESE particular systems that have eminated from China.

Main gripe appears to be with very intermittent signals being received from the wheel mounted sensors. And this was with 2 vehicles of the same model etc., fitted with the same system, albeit different countries of manufacture. It may be worth noting, that both vehicles were fitted with steel rims and not alloy. I'd think this fact could be a contributing factor. Maybe the signal in the Chinese stuff isn't as strong - prone to interference maybe?

Sure, the majority of our stuff is made in China, but there is no use (in my humble opinion only), in ignoring the fact that "you get what you pay for".

At the end of the day, any company that gets things built in China will specify what type of components will used in the product's manufacture - and the Chinese will build it accordingly.

The sad fact is, that many will just build with the cheapest components to increase their "bottom line".

Hey, I'm not immune. This last weekend gone, I have had a LCD/DVD TV pack up (5 months old) and a Set Top Box (10 Months old) pack up and both were manufactured in China! The irony is, I have another 81 cm TV made by the same company still going strong after 10 years - but that's made in Korea! Go figure!

Cheers, Matt

My first thoughts on seeing that system - some bugger would nick them.

Just a followup - having read one of the product descriptions, there's an anti-theft collar - but it looks like an allen key is all that's needed - still, should be enough to deter the casual thief.

Drew,

with the onvalve sensors do you still get the on dash monitor etc etc ??. i think id go that way so i can remove them when not needed.also where did you buy them please ??? cheers.. Rod
