I purchased and installed the TST system in March during the Heartland Florida Rally. Been travelling since. A couple days ago I rec'd my first alarm while travelling North and descending RT 145 from Lizard Head Pass in SW Colorado. This is a narrow winding road and I was in 2nd gear from 20 - 30 MPH occasionally having to brake to bring my speed down. Nearing the bottom is when the alarm sounded so I checked mirrors and saw nothing and a 1/4 mile later there was a small area that I could pull off. Checked all the tires - no problem, then it dawned on me to look more closely at the monitor - it was the temperature alarm. My front truck brakes were over the 158 degree preset, actually the monitor temp for front tires was 169, all other tires were under 100. I don't really know if 169 is excessive, but we sat for about 30 minutes until temp dropped and off we went. We've been on similar downgrades before, but I guess I was braking more than I realized this time. Anyway, I'm happy to have the system.
