Wickenburg, AZ USA, February 1, 2010: L&S Safety Solutions (“L&S”) announced today that they are attending the upcoming Waste Expo 2010 taking place May 3^rd through May 6^th at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA to showcase PressurePro tire pressure monitoring systems (“TPMS”).  This show is North America’s largest solid waste and recycling tradeshow and serves both private and public sectors. Advantage PressurePro, a worldwide leader in Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems and Technology, will also be in attendance with L&S, noting that the Expo is a great way to get a better understanding of the waste industry’s need for reliable and durable tire pressure monitoring.

With the constant stop-and-go brake-generated heat challenge of the waste industry’s on-road vehicles as well as the treacherous conditions of their daily off-road exposure, this industry is averaging a tire lifespan of less than 6,000 miles, obviously detrimental to a fleet’s profits. Fortunately, TPMS can help extend this average tire life.

With tire life being a top concern for waste fleets of all types and sizes, PressurePro is looking forward to further educating the market of the numerous benefits that tire pressure monitoring can offer. Interested fleets and drivers in attendance at Waste Expo can find additional information at Booth # 1763. Further information can also be found online at www.TirePressureMonitor.com.

We own a 2006 Allegro Bus and in Feb. of 2007, we added the Pressure Pro system to both the coach & towed vehicle. On our trip from our residence in Florida to our summer home in ND, we had not one, but two incidences where our monitor alerted us to tire problems. First a tire on our towed vehicle had a nail in it and when we were fueling up at a Flying J, the monitor alarm went off. The next day the outside duel tire on the coach did the same thing. The monitor woke George from his nap!

Either incident would have been costly & perhaps devastating if we had not had the PressurePro. Because of our experience with your product, we have persuaded many fellow RV’ers to make the investment in PressurePro. The cost is minimal compared to the cost of losing a tire on either the coach or towed vehicle. We consider the PressurePro our best investment yet!

Then, last week on my trip home from Brown County, I was zooming along the highway in a construction zone when the TPMS alarm went off again, this time the rear drivers side horse trailer tire. Well, what do you know, I drove over something that caused a nice sized hole in the tire. I was able to pull over to a safe place before the pressure in the tire dipped below 60 pounds, saving the tire and who knows what else if that tire had blown.

Thanks for a great product,

Hanson remains one of the world’s leading heavy building materials companies operating in North America, the UK, Australia, Asia Pacific and Continental Europe.

Hanson Construction Materials at Kulnura Quarry, have been using the Pressure Pro
wireless tyre pressure monitoring units for over 12 months on a fleet of Five X-Komatsu
50t dump trucks and a 40t dump truck.

“We have found them to be reliable, with no problems when fitting them or when
changing tyres. Operators are now constantly aware of the status of their tyre
pressures, and we can confidently say that we have not damaged a tyre through low air
pressure since fitting the units. We also have saved money by not needing a tyre fitter
to do weekly pressure checks. Small leaks can now be monitored and we can
coordinate to get a Tyre handler to come to site and do several repairs at one time.”

Well, I’m happy to report after our trip to Alaska and back home of over 10,000 miles, everything performed perfectly. In the mornings, I’m able to read the tire pressures without having to move. Having the system on gives me peace of mind like you all said it would and I like being able to check tire pressures to assure all tires are approximately the same pressures for better handling and fuel mileage. You all provide great service and are terrific to work with. Keep up the good work.

Gaylon B. Houston, TX

The new system is bulletproof!! What a joy. I am delighted with the system and tell everyone they need one too to protect their love ones. Thanks for all the great service after sale.

Mike D. Long Beach, CA

The system with the optional antenna worked flawlessly again on our trip today. Clearly the antenna was needed in our case to pick up the towed car, given the length of the coach. It’s my opinion that understanding the integrity of my car tires while being towed is the greatest benefit of your system. Surely, knowing what the coach is doing is important, but I have no mechanical feedback from the car while I’m driving. Should a tire blow or lose pressure, I would not know until substantial damage has been done. The system monitors all my tires, including the car tires, and I can relax much more. One less worry while driving. Congratulations on developing such a good product.

Roy S. Brandon, FL

Made our first real trip with new Pressure Pro approximately 800 miles. Everything worked fine, with the control mounted antenna. It is a real pleasure to be able to check pressure before you start on a trip from the driver’s seat. Thanks for a nice, very useful product. I will recommend it to all my friends.

I just thought I would let you know that the newest PressurePro hardware worked flawlessly on our trip to Colorado.

David T. Allen, TX

Having instant, accurate tire pressure readings while rolling down the highway provides a great peace of mind. It is easy to check the tires at anytime and of course should any tire begin to lose pressure, the system will alarm. The system is easy to install and use.

With over 500 exhibitors, WasteExpo is an opportunity for all to see and compare the latest equipment and technology in the industry.  WasteExpo attracts both the private sector and the public sector, as well as waste generators to the show.  It is North America’s largest solid waste and recycling tradeshow.

The WasteExpo 2010 Conference Program covers the latest trends and topics in the solid waste industry such as PressurePro’s tire pressure monitoring system, currently being used on refuse trucks (as well as other types of trucks and fleets) throughout the U.S. 

Benefits of using PressurePro and maintaining properly inflated tires include increased fuel efficiency, extended tire life, and decreased downtime and maintenance.  Safety is also an added benefit, since under inflated tires lead to tread separation and tire failure resulting in 33,000 injuries and over 650 deaths per year.

Drive Green!  Under inflated tires are estimated by the DOT to release over 57.5 billion pounds of unnecessary Carbon Monoxide pollutants into the atmosphere every year.  Use of PressurePro and driving with properly inflated tires helps decrease carbon emissions, and  is environmentally friendly, conserving our precious natural resources.

PressurePro is a wireless electronic tire pressure monitoring system and is capable of monitoring and displaying current tire pressures on demand, whether stationary or moving. Low pressure is the leading cause of premature tire failure but PressurePro can provide early notice of potential problems. Knowing about a low-pressure tire ahead of time is paramount to averting a flat tire and a subsequent blow-out. Fixing a tire is less time consuming and less costly than buying a new one and/or repairing your bike!

Monitor: Check each tire’s air pressure by pressing a button, even while riding down the road. Can also alert you to low tire pressures; digital readout shows the problem tire location and current tire pressure. Be alerted of low pressure tires before driving becomes unsafe.

The 433.92 MHz FM Monitor can monitor up to 6 wheels and is weather resistant. The Monitor displays each tire’s pressure and can send an audible and visual alert if pressures drop. It automatically dims in low-light or dark conditions and then brightens in conditions of bright light. Includes integral built-in antenna and extended power cord. Pressure range is 10-199 psi. Velcro mounts included.

Monitor Dimensions: 3 3/4?W x 1 1/2?H x 3/4?D

Sensors: Uses standard PressurePro tire Sensors (order separately).

Sensors screw onto the valve stems of your bike’s tires, replacing the valve stem caps. The Sensors transmit a coded RF signal and can alert if pressure drops approximately 12% under the cold running pressure for each tire.

The Tire Industry Safety Council has estimated that 50-80% of the 500+ million tires being used in the USA are underinflated. Under-inflation is the major cause of over-heating and contributes to ply separation, sidewall/tread breakdowns, poor tread life, tire disintegration, premature tire failure, and decreased road safety. PressurePro also helps to increase useful tire life and to save fuel by informing the rider of tire under-inflation.

Additionally, the Department of Transportation estimates that over 37% of all tires in America are under inflated. Low tire pressure is the number one cause of tire failure and contributes to heat buildup, tire disintegration, ply separation and casing/sidewall breakdowns. Increase your average MPG by as much as 3.3% with properly inflated tires. Properly inflated tires last longer; be safer with properly inflated tires.

PressurePro can be used on most pneumatic tires and can also be used on RVs and tows, trucks/trailers, ATVs, autos and commercial vehicles—up to 64 wheels with drop and hook applications.

Testimonials:

The peace of mind that PressurePro provides is priceless. This is one of the greatest products I have ever purchased due to its simplicity and reliability. Every vehicle on the road should be required to have a PressurePro system; it could prevent hundreds of dollars in damage to vehicles and could save lives too! Rod A.

The system is bulletproof! What a joy being able to check your pressures at any time! I am delighted with the system and tell everyone they need one to protect their loved ones too! Thanks! Mike D.

Thanks for a great product! The PressurePro system gives you the information you need to maintain properly inflated tires; also results in providing significant savings as well as safety! Phil R.

Warranty: One-year limited manufacturer’s warranty.

Manufactured in the USA.

One proposed change to be requested in the 2010 National Congress on School Transportation is that tire pressure checks must be conducted by drivers during the pre- and post-trip walk-around inspections, and that operators be familiar with how tire pressure monitoring systems work, if used; local school districts can require TPMS at their discretion.
