Wow!!!

Count me in for one or two, awesome job! The talent on this board is incredible, bonus points for Italians.

I had one of the earlier setups with the worm-gear metal straps and sensor/counterweight and it had an in-cabin display. It worked pretty good, but it was a ***** to keep the tires balanced. So my 2 cents is rule those out for sure, and go with the sensors that go on the valves. The valve cap style sensors can be stolen more easliy too.

I'm sure there can always be a open source project like this, but if the store would want to sell somehting similar, I sure that poeple would by it because they don't have to make it and it will have a warranty.

is it possible to have the option of different style wheel sensors? I ask this because I run Beadlocks, and they require a very specific valve stem, so i cannot use most of the stem style sensors. For those of you that are not familiar with beadlocks, i'll explain; The inner bead seats on the wheel like normal, but the outer bead actually sits on a lip on the OUTSIDE of the wheel. then there is a lock ring that is bolted on with (in my case) 24 bolts. the tire is clamped between the wheel and lockring. These wheels are used primarily for offroad.

Anyway these require a special valve stem to clear the lockring. my only option for sensores would be the style that clamp on to the wheel with the counter weight.
