Aftermarket tire pressure monitors?

Anyone have any experience with them? I am going to get them for all my cars since I had that one tire let go on me and I had a bad day. I didnt even feel that the tire was low.
I did a little searching and it only looks like there are a few oin the market, 2 of them are sold at Tire rack where I will most likely get one from as I need 2 tires anyway. They seem to have the best prices too not just on that but other stuff too. They look like the best place to get Koni yellows for the 3rd gen too.
Any input is appreciated.

i wish i bought monitors for mine. i was going to but said nah i'll keep up with it. had a nail in my passenger rear tire and had no idea. i started to notice i was spinning through most of 1st gear. checked the tire pressure and had 10 pounds in it i was about to drive to hoboken too. it would be a wise investment especially with the lower profile tires. 30 pounds looks exactly like 10 pounds. some even give you tire temp too

Mine is basically the same story but my tire grenaded because 32 lbs felt the same as no tire pressure on the low profile.
Thanks though for not contributing anything useful to the thread
