Could device help you monitor tyre pressure?

Drivers looking to make sure that their tyres are inflated to the proper levels could find a Tyre Alert product is of assistance.

The firm, which is the trading name of Brandnetics Import Export Limited, points out that its Pressure Cap device can help to counter the effects of tyre loss, as a flashing light will indicate when pressure levels have fallen below the correct standard.

As such, drivers could find they are able to avoid the loss of handling that incorrect tyre inflation can often result in and help maximise fuel efficiency.

Indeed, the organisation states that under-inflated tyres contribute some 2.2 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year, increasing the nation’s annual fuel bill by £1.4 billion.

The firm also points out that its pressure monitoring device can be used for both cars and commercial vehicles.

And such a product could prove to be particularly useful as esure recently advised those heading on motorway journeys to check their tyres before setting off.
