Default Which Tire deflators?

There are so many to choose from. I like the idea of the accu-gauge or similar product. The Staun's are a bit pricey. Any feedback on this would be appreciated. Thanks

I just bought this from 4 wheel parts.
Havent had a chance to use it yet but one of the guys at Rohwer had one and it worked great.

I was looking at that one. Looks like there are about 3 different companies that have the same design. Saw the Accu-Gauge in use yesterday. Works quick and convenient. Thanks for your input.

I have this one as well and have been pleased with it. A buddy of mine has one that says ARB, but that is the only difference.

I own staun's and they work great. The generic staun-styles gave me problems so spending some more bucks was worth it. Here is my next purchase:

Now - THESE are deflators, military style.

I use the Curry Enterprises Deflator. I extracts the valve stem and provides a pressure measurement. At my last wheeling event several of our club members showed significant signs of deflator envy.

I highly recommend it!

You could always use these. Only problem is you gotta drill a hole in your rim. But boy it would be fast to air down. Or you can get the mini monster deflators. Alot smaller. They are the same thing as a air compressor drain cock you can buy at home depot for 4 bucks a piece.
just a thought.
