Having the sensor integrated into the valve stem would eliminate this issue. Yes, I understand it would cost more if only because it would be necessary to dismount the tire in order to install.

The TST 507 system can use internal sensors. Sensors are about $55 each for external (puck or flow-through) and $100 for internal sensors. Of course internal sensors give accurate tire internal temperatures and not ambient like the pucks. In 7 years of using 8 flow through (2 on the dolly) and 2 pucks (used on the towed) with my TST507, I have never had a problem. The batteries last 2-3 years depending on the miles driven. <https://tsttruck.com/shop.html>
