    Yes, that is what i was looking too, by Michelin at around £20. The reviews vary though but i might give it a go and see

    Yeah the reviews varied for the halfords one but it's been bob on, used it on the bikes & vans & seems accurate enough for everyday use, owts better than the saga at the petrol stations :D

    I've had a Michelin 12v pump with digital gauge for a couple of years now, cost me about £40 but has been great stays in the car and use it to check and top up the bike tyres when I go out, highly recommended

    the michelin pump at Halfords screws into the schrader valve rather than the conventional 'push on and lock type'
    didn't like it at first but got used to it now

    Which Michelin pump are you looking at? The 12v or foot pumps?

    I bought the single barrel one with a digital indicator. Hope it will work but it was only 20 quid so no harm done
