There are a few nice TPMS units out there...
I am using the TST507 system on my fifth wheel. Older model of the 507 system and no repeater
The newest 507 has a much easier to read color display compared to the original

This TPMS is also quite good...

If you would like something that can run on your smartphone - so you don't need another display to make room for/view - I'm a fan of the Tireminder Smart TPMS system.
The system displays both individual tire pressure and temperature. I mounted the signal booster on the side rail on the trailer A-frame near the battery on our 33' trailer. No issues with signal loss in my year of use.

Couple questions. When you’re running the app on your phone, is it consuming cellular data? And since you mounted the booster on the frame, I would assume it waterproof? Thanks

Also had the TST507, worked great on all 10 tires of the dually & 40' 5th wheel without a booster.
As Javi mentioned it's scrolling all the tires constantly, amazing at how often I was looking at the temps & pressures, rather than needing to pull up the app on your phone.
The monitor was about a 1/3 of the size of my cell phone tucked in the far left corner of the dash it was hardly noticeable.
The other plus is the batteries are user changeable found at most places batteries are sold, some brands need to sent back for replacement.
No, I don't work for nor get any compensation from TST but did a lot of research before purchasing. Yes, the TST may be a bit more $$, but never had an issue using it every day for 6+ years & from experience you get what you pay for.

Hi, you can get 15% off of your orders from TST on the TPMS TST-507 by going to the RV Odd Couple on youtube and getting a discount coupon. I saved $119.10 on my order for a TST-507 TPMS. Just thought this might help.

I have the Tireminder i10.
No issue with interference/ loss of signal.
Easy to program. Price was right.

I bought the TST-507 color monitor. Although I thought it would be in the way I found it charged up and held the charge for days (no cord needed). Additionally I just used the rubber dash holder which fit perfectly to the left of the steering wheel corner of the dash. Simple to set up. The only thing I have not finished is that I mounted the repeater in the battery box and need to install the weatherproof switch that I purchased.

No cell data....it's communicating with the adapter via bluetooth only. And yes, the booster is sealed and meant to be installed on the exterior. I need to clarify my install comment a bit. I have a 4" electrical junction box that was already mounted on the side rail of the trailer A-frame. I mounted the transmitter to the junction box cover. It's a short run to my battery box from there and I used the included alligator clips to connect the transmitter to my RV battery.
Here's a video on the product:

+1 for the TST 507. I got mine from techno rv with flow through sensors cheaper than Amazon. It’s great being able to observe pressure and temperature.
