Bumping this not-too-old thread....
Just got my Tireminder Smart TPMS and will be installing and setting it up next week when I get back to the trailer down in Tucson. Nice packaging!
A couple of questions for those of you that have actually installed and used them. This is going on a 2018 2285 (dual separate battery compartments) pulled by a F250 CCSB truck with a rigid topper on the back.
I was thinking of putting the signal booster in one of the battery compartments and, at least for now, just clipping the power supply onto the battery poles. They're weather protected, handy to power and pretty far forward on the trailer. Should be easy to mount it with strong velcro, if not the supplied zip ties. Any thoughts pro or con on that?
As for the Bluetooth adapter.... I've got plenty of options for that, probably in one of the back seat center console cup holders so I can get power from a nearby 12V socket and it will be close enough to hear and/or grab from the front seat if it signals, but not in the center console in front which gets full of other sh..., I mean "necessities", including the cell phone which will be the monitoring device.
I'd be interested in hearing how folks have actually installed this stuff. The manual seems pretty clear and I don't expect any difficulties. But, I find, almost always, that people come up with better ideas for installations, mounting, etc. than I do. This isn't rocket science, but still, it would be nice to know how it's gone for others.
Thanks.
