My coach has Smartire sensors in the wheels, and the batteries are going Dixie on me. Anybody know if they're replaceable, or tried to replace them?

How does the sensor know it is on an RV? I’m sure the auto ones would be the same if in fact the Smartire is still in business.

Well, if I were segmenting my market as they did, I'd probably use a different number of digits for each family of sensors, and keep the setup from taking tne wrong number. I hafta have the van tires rotated however... probably the gurus at Oakwood Tire have answers.

I assume that car sensors are in the 30+ PSI range while the RV sensors or in the 60+ PSI range.
