Accutire safety kit4
This product was on sale at a good price. The tire gauge seems accurate, the flashlight is small, but bright, and the multitool seems adequate for the sale price. The case seems sturdy, and keeps everything together. Should fit in even a small glove compartment.

OK, but just OK2
I bought this because of its compact size to carry in my motorcycle. I found that the pressure guage is difficult to position for a good seal on the tire valve, regardless of whether it is used on a car, truck or motorcycle tire. It is especially difficult on a motorcycle if you have large hands and have to cope with getting around the disk brake rotor. It came with no instructions so the use was trial and error. Once the seal is made with the valve, it takes a few seconds for the digital display to give a reading so you need to hold it on the valve long enough for it to register a reading. Then it can be removed and read. I have compared it with another "High End" pressure guage and the readings seem to match.

The flashlight worked a couple times but after the second use it quit working. The batteries were checked and found to have a good amount of "juice" in them. It almost seems like something is not making contact inside the light.

The utility tool is adequate but crude. It looks just like a couple of ones that I was given as a token gift. Not costly and "Made in China." I have not had the opportunity to put it to use, yet and I hope I don't have to.

Don't bother.2
I bought this kit thinking the digital tire gauge would be great. I guess it would be great IF I could actually read it when it was on the tire. I can never seem to position it so I can see the readout. The pliers and flashlight are useful, but I already had those. The bottom line is that I am disappointed with this purchase.
