Has anyone run these?
Any opinions?
I usually air down to 17psi or so.  In my experience with relief valves, they work better with more spring tension.  With that thinking, I would probably go with the lower pressure valves.
Any insight would be great!!!

Yeah, know that one!!!
I'm starting to clear land for my house, so I'm using my Jeep quite a bit to yank trees around.  The big ones are a pain.  Usually air down and use my lockers if needed.  Just looking for something a bit easier than spending 20 minutes every day, let alone airing up!!!!!

Just ordered a set of these.  No answer, left a message and got called back 10 minutes later from Jim Everett, just like on the website.  He checked his messages from the road and had me on speakerphone... damn cell phone laws, until he had a chance to pull over.  We must have chatted for 10 minutes or so before even placing the order!!!  He went through the history and even how his market in the east coast is doing!!  He took my order raodside, took all my info and said he will pre-set the deflators to what I wanted before shipping them out!!!
It has been quite some time since I have seen customer service like this!!!  If their product works as well as their customer relations, then I will be happier than a pig in *** for a long time.
Props to JP to introduce us to great companies like this one and keep up the good work!!!!

Sorry for the double post but I thought this was worth mentioning!!!

OK, I've been using them once to twice a week since I got them late September.  They are great!  They seem to be quite accurate and simple as hell to adjust.  I left them on once to see how they seal when done deflating.  To my surprise, I didn't loose a pound!!  Once, I accidentally left them in my pocket after airing down while logging my property.  They got a mouthful of wood chips stuck in them.  Simple to take apart and clean!!  If you count the turns on each one carefully when disassembling, then you should be within a 1/2 pound to pound when putting them back together.  Very nice product, would reccomend them to anyone.

BTW, it only takes about 6 minutes or so to take my 35x12.5R15 TrxusMT's from 32 to 13 psi.
