Handle the Pressure with Richbrook

A most useful addition has been made to the motorist’s arsenal: Richbrook has released a digital tyre pressure guage that is not much bigger than the average keyring, yet boasts an accurate gauge that measures in both PSA and BAR to a +/- 1 per cent level of accuracy – a degree of accuracy typically found in much larger units. A blue display is intended to facilitate measurement reading in all weather and lighting conditions. and the unit’s design also incorporates an inbuilt flashlight and key clip, making the gauge a handy travel companion in all manner of situations.

Two designs are available; the classic Richbrook British Racing Green and an officially licensed Ford version. Both have a tactile rubberised finish for durability and come complete with a velvet storage bag. The pressure gauge is priced at £14.95, and given that a 6 psi drop in tyre pressure can lead to fuel consumption increasing by as much as ten per cent, it is feasible that the unit will end up paying for itself.
