I bought one of these at wally and though why not it's only $10 and it would be slick to have under my seat and it has a nice flexible hose to reach tight spots.. At first i was impressed tested it against my other hi end gauges that i have in the shed and it was with in 1lb of them, and the flexible hose was easy to get on the bike tires. The flaw is, anyting that touches or even bumps the button will turn it on, i was carrying it in the center console of my truck of about a month and it ran the battery dead. Well it takes 2 round watch battery that are $7 to replace, so this is a fail in my book. If it had a switch instead of a button it would be ok.
