    As you can see by the file feedback is not a top priority here. I see nothing but a blank sheet for it.

    Lying sack of .... potatoes!

    You just made yourself look bad with your deceptive sale tactics! :biggrin_25510:


    He led us to believe no sales were involved. He didn't tell us drivers had to return them in 14 days or be charged the full amount. He is preying on drivers hoping they get tied up and unable to return the system in 14 short days. That's hardly time to evaluate it let alone take it back off and find a way to ship it back from the road. Some drivers stay out for weeks and he knows that. Scumbag tactics desperate for a sale!

    I was going to be a tester for this guy and his product. We emailed each other and thought all was legit. Until I received an email from him today and it was saying I have to give my credit card number in order to receive and test HIS product that he asked US to test. Well that kind of up set me because I HATE scammers. Well I sent him a nice little email back telling him what he can do with his product.

    A test for 14 days and only 2 tire monitors and you can buy more for a good price, kiss my Lilly white arse. Nothing but a sales gimmick. I too got the e-mail and sent him a big F. U. One thing is for sure, I wouldn't buy one now even if they are the greatest thing since sliced bread.

    He is the scumbag that threw the offer out there. Oh, how much did you say you paid for yours. I think you were one of the first to take him on his offer. Not that it's a bad thing.

    Paid nothing,no CC, no sending back to him. Bad deal that he changed the offer to others.

    Bad deal indeed. He's ruined the situation for everyone else wanting to get real world results from real world users. We are discussing a new policy for these situations, because of this.

    This is not something that we take lightly and our job here is to protect our members and the community from this kind of stuff.

    He's shaken our trust in these situations now, and given themselves a black eye.

    He sent mine without a CC or anything. I had it for awhile before installing it as I got it when I came home for the holidays. Spent a day off two weeks ago to install it and it didn't work. The unit didn't come with directions and it looks like it had sensors (not the ones shipped) programmed in. I'm going to be pulling off the sensors next time I'm at the truck and shipping back. The software is laggy and unresponsive at times, and the hardware is needlessly large and bulky. Oh well.

    Don't use the 0's(zero's)when programming it. Told him they should pre-program the sensors and then just label them LFO, LFI, ect. Unless you mount the sensor inside(defeats the ability to just R&R tire/wheel between multiple trucks)they should have an airline setup like a PSI and center mount on the hub and eliminate the PITA to add air to the outside tire. DTNA system was the same and it would crack valve stems when snow/ice build up. We did jam a valve core and drove around the yard, the alarm went off where it was set at. Only time will tell how accurate the sensors remain.
