Comparison of Chigee AIO-5 External and Internal Tire Pressure Sensors: Advantages and Disadvantages

When choosing the right tire pressure sensors for your Chigee AIO-5 driving system, both functionality and convenience play a crucial role. Chigee offers two types of sensors: the external sensors (MFP0019) and the internal sensors (MFP0018). Both types have their own advantages and disadvantages, depending on your needs and the type of motorcycle you ride. Let's look at the features of both sensors to help you make the best choice.

Chigee AIO-5 External Tire Pressure Sensors (MFP0019)

Advantages:

  1. Easy Installation: The external sensors are easy to install and connected to your Chigee AIO-5 riding system within minutes. This makes them ideal for bikes where internal sensors are difficult to install.

  2. Accurate Measurements: These sensors provide accurate measurements of both tire pressure and temperature. The data is clearly readable on your Chigee AIO-5 display, contributing to increased safety.

  3. Durable: Made of high-quality aluminum alloy, these sensors are designed for long life and reliability under various riding conditions.

  4. Long Battery Life and Replaceable: With a battery life of up to 1 year, these sensors provide long-term operation without frequent maintenance. The battery is also easily replaceable

  5. Complete Package: The package includes 2 sensors, allowing you to equip your front and rear wheels with the necessary monitoring.

Disadvantages:

  1. Aesthetics: External sensors can affect the appearance of your motorcycle. They are visible and cannot always be neatly integrated, especially on motorcycles with small rims or limited space.

  2. Resistance: External sensors can sometimes have additional exposure to weather conditions, which can affect durability, although they are designed to withstand this.

Chigee AIO-5 Internal Tire Pressure Sensors (MFP0018)

Benefits:

  1. Aesthetics and Integration: Internal sensors are mounted on the inside of the rim, giving a seamless look and providing a neat finish to your motorcycle. They are not visible, adding to the aesthetics.

  2. Accurate Measurements: Like the external sensors, the internal sensors provide accurate tire pressure and temperature data displayed on your Chigee AIO-5 display.

  3. Durability: The internal sensors are also made of high-quality aluminum alloy, contributing to their long life and reliability.

  4. Long Battery Life: With a battery life of 2 to 3 years, these sensors offer long-term monitoring without frequent battery maintenance.

Disadvantages:

  1. Installation: Installation of internal sensors can be more complex than external sensors, especially if access to the inside of the rim is limited. This may require additional time and effort.

  2. Battery replacement: The batteries of internal sensors are not replaceable. If the battery dies, the sensor must be replaced, which can result in additional long-term costs.

  3. Compatibility: On motorcycles with small rims, such as some BMW scooters, internal sensors can be difficult to install. In such cases, the external sensor is a more suitable choice.

 

Conclusion

Both types of Chigee AIO-5 tire pressure sensors have their own unique advantages and disadvantages. The external sensors offer easy installation and long battery life, but may affect the aesthetics of your motorcycle. The internal sensors offer a sleek look and slightly longer battery life, but can be more complex to install and have non-replaceable batteries.

Choose the type of sensor that best suits your specific needs, type of motorcycle and your preferences for installation and aesthetics. However, both sensors will contribute to increased safety and riding enjoyment by providing you with accurate tire pressure and temperature information.
