Does it send it wirelessly? Or is the sensor connected by wires and permanently installed in the rim?

A sensor just went out on my Prius and needed to be replaced. The sensors have batteries. The battery in one of the four sensors was dead, and the batteries can’t be replaced, so the whole sensor had to go. I found this Web page informative.

It cost me $93 for the sensor and programming at Big-O Tires. I replaced a tire at the same time.

They certainly don’t communicate with the car using Bluetooth because Bluetooth uses frequencies around 2.4 GHz and the sensors are down around 400 MHz.

Re: How does my car know…

 

Here is the Car Talk article about the pressure sensors, along with advice about where to get them replaced. (Hint: it's not the dealer.)

Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) that use valve stems to read tire pressure work by incorporating wireless sensors within the valve stem itself (or very close to it, attached to the base). These sensors measure the tire pressure and transmit this information wirelessly to a receiver in your vehicle, which then alerts you through a dashboard light if the pressure is low.

Harry, there is a valve stem with a sensor that reads the pressure & sends it to your car computer.

Sorta expensive to replace one but they are invaluable.

Re: Managing email folders

 

At least the advantage of old moldering email over paper mail is that it doesn't take up any real space and it is so nicely dated that ditching everything over x years old is simple and needs no shredder.

Bill,
I have the same problem - I have never looked at any of the saved emails so I figure I don’t really need them but yet I can’t bear to get rid of them.

When I get to the point of being tired of all of the mail folders I think I will just delete each folder and not bother with seeing what’s in them.

Throw it away if you haven’t touched them in X# of weeks?, months?, years?, decades?. If, when you touch it it doesn’t bring you joy, throw it away!

Good luck and let me know what you decide.

Been using Apple’s Mail for ever and ever. Over the years, I have created ‘folders’ to move email into and save for whatever reason.
Now I have folders full of different out-dated receipts, dead web links, and more useless info than a junk drawer in my kitchen.
I guess I just have to take a folder a day and click through each email and save or toss. Anyone one have a magic spell or a technique to help clean these up?

Re: Managing email folders

 

I agree Anne,
I had some success today, due to the fact I had a tooth pulled and was told to have a rest day. Sat in a recliner for several hours and went thru the folders and deleted so many old, useless emails. I don’t recommend the tooth pulling part, but I’m glad my email collection is slimmed down now.

Good luck with yours. (And don’t save this one!!)
Thanks,
Bill

I too have a large “documents directory” of emails I have saved in Apple mail. If if viewed one a day it would take me forever. Some of these mailboxes go four levels or more! I do ocassionally try and clear out a mailbox when I realize that that “event” is over.

I wish there was an app that I could transfer my mail documents (Mailboxes) to That way I would probably do so once a year.

I am an officer in a number of groups I belong to and I am amazed howoften I need to refer to previous emails (received or sent) to answer some members question - prove I sent them a message, etc.

Re: Geeking out

 

I don’t travel with the laptop either - except when we go to Alabama to visit my son. We are there 2-4 weeks at a time twice a year so I got the second screen just for those times.
Thanks for the reply.

Re: HDMI cables

 

I have several unused HDMI cables but I will look into the audio quest chocolate cables. Thanks John.

Harry,

Beth may have found your answer but I want to tell you my experience. When we built our home I had purchased Monster HDMI cables thinking they were great. The quality of the video wasn’t that good so I purchased AudioQuest Chocolate & boy are they great, I now only use that brand for any HMDI needs, TV’s & Computer.
