Eez Tire TPMS question

Hey guys, getting ready to pull the trigger on a TPMS. Looking at the Eez Tire..Can you tell me if the display rotates 90° so I could mount the suction cup to the driver side window? Any other input is also appreciated. Thanks

Our display does not rotate. When we are traveling I have the display mounted on the passenger side window. Its readily visible from the driver's seat.

For some reason the sensors on the motorhome tires are all reading about 7 psi below the pressure I measure directly at the tire with a couple of different gauges. At one time they were reading accurately, but seem to have shifted over last winter. I run our tires at 82 psi (per the label in the the MH) but the EZTire sensors show 75-77 psi. I consider this to be "OK" as what you are really looking for is a sudden change in pressure and not so much absolute pressure. Still I'd like them to be more accurate.

I bought an EEZ TPMS system for my TT years ago. The problem is the non-replaceable internal battery in the receiver. Once it dies the unit will not turn on even if connected to 12 VDC power. A replacement receiver at that time was over $200.

They must have gotten strong feedback on that, the receiver batteries are replaceable in the current model.
