Always wondered how accurate are the slim pencil type gauges. I know to check pressure when the tires are cold, but wanted to ask what everyone uses to check the air.

I have two cheap-O digital gages and they always read within .5 psi of each other, and were dead on to most the rest of the gages I threw away when I got them.

I got two same type gauges with dial. one is accugauge from aap another is hausfeld&campbell from walmart both are ok but i like accugauge better, a lot easier to use. I also have electronic one. Garbage as well, hard to use, inconsistent. Don't trust it.

I have both a high quality made-in-the-U.S.ofA. G.H. Heiser (G.H. Heiser is the maker of Accu-Gage) analogue dial gauge (H-60XA: this is the one) and a small battery-powered digital gauge (with miniature LED flashlight) from Campbell-Hausfeld. This is the one.
I have tested them against each other in many situations, and they agree 100 percent of the time, which is reassuring. The Campbell-Hausfeld is smaller, less expensive, and not as likely to be knocked catty-wampus by a drop to the pavement, however.
