No one checks their tire pressure on passenger vehicles even with the TPM light on...they need this for cars.
 
Check valves with barometric sensors Whole deal is waay simpler than TMS. On my Transit Connect work van, it is a PITA. The tires are new and properly inflated. Once the truck goes a few miles the, TMS lights up and flashes. Seems to be heat related.
