I have been using a precision round gauge for years and years. Just noticed it will not return to zero it sticks at 5 pounds. But seems to b pretty accurate. No tire pressure lights on in vehicles.

Digital on compressor and cheap stick ones in truck for travel.
You need to check accuracy by testing a few on the same tire. They do wear out.

Milton's are the best
I have this one and like it. I like that it "remembers" the pressure once you remove it from the tire and also has a pressure release so you can easily bleed air out if need be. I've also not had any issues with losing air while trying to get a reading.

Still rocking a 20+ year-old Brookstone one. It matches the gauges on the three compressors that I have kicking around closely. Have a newer HFT one that's off by 20%
How do you know if any of these are reading a correct value?

Unless you have access to a calibrated gauge you really don't know if yours is accurate.
I never did like them, but the pencil SEEMS to maintain its accuracy the longest.

The TPMS on my car and the gage read within 0.2 psi of each other....

Compare yours to a neighbor, your tire guys, etc. If they aren't the same, you'll need another comparison.
I have several Slimes and 4 or more generic ones. Most are the same, but I had one last year, that I didn't trust when it read 40 psi, but the tire looked full (65 psi). It was bad and tossed.

Got several but not sure what brands they are.
Never trusted cheap tire pressure gauges, so bought a Craftsman dial gauge. It read at least 5 psi higher than actual, maybe 10 psi. I threw it away, after it cost me a set of tires on the boat trailer. I've been using a $2 Campbell-Hausfeld from Lowe's or HD. I asked the guy at Discount Tire to compare it to his, and they matched well.
Don't bother me, I'm screwing for virginity.
I killed a 12-pack just to watch it die.
