What's the best tire deflator solution?

Personally... don't care for the staun type deflate tool. I've found them to be slow and not very accurate.
The Currie type is much better, as you gain control you lose with the staun type, plus it is a TON faster. (as stated already, these all seem to be made in the same place with different labels)
Even better would be a rapid air down valve... had these on my last set of wheels and am disappointed in myself that I decided to not go that route with the new wheels. Extremely fast and easy. Also pretty easy to install.

I bought some of the smittybilt deflators that work quick for me. I dialed them in and by the time I get the fourth one on the first is done. Then ill double check with a gauge. Then fill up with the power tank

Anyone here run the "RAD" deflators? I have a new set of Trail Ready beadlock wheels waiting to install on my rubi and they sell their "Rapid Air Deflators" that feature a large knurled nut which exposes a number of small holes when turned out to dump massive amounts of air in a short amount of time. Not sure how well they work compared to what they advertise. Any input will be appreciated.

I was looking for deflators as well, and I went with the Staun II deflators. They are basically the same as the Stauns, but instead of being made in Australia, the IIs are made here. They are faster than the original Stauns but work the same. The ARB, Currie, and one other valve stem removal deflator are basically, all the same, just different names on them. I was looking at ARB/Currie, but, since I air down to 18 psi, I didn't need one, although they are half the price of the Staun IIs. The Stauns take a little bit to adjust, but once set, they might have to be checked occasionally, but they work. SmittyBuilt deflators are not reliable enough for me to want to use them, according to the numerous reviews I have read. They are much harder to adjust, and they are inaccurate after adjustment.
I have a bed gun safe[/url] mounted in my bedroom. Keeps the kids out of it, but the combo is quick and easy to enter and access.
Could I ask you, guys? My personal question
Can you recommend a good casino with real winnings? But I need a Canadian casino, as I live in Ontario. Many of my friends are doing it, but they all have different answers about choosing a casino.

I have Stauns. IMO, not worth the price unless you stay in just one location for all your wheelin'. For example.....spend however long getting them set to perfect level here in Texas. Great, good to go. Travel to Colorado, that setting is worthless due to different altitude. Even going to Arkansas or Missouri from Texas their previous setting isn't spot on. They are definitely not Set-It-And-Forget-It, and for that reason, not worth the price. I've gotten to the point I just leave em wide open and watch my TPMS on the dash, pull em off when I'm at the level I am targeting.
