Random fact; A lot of vehicles on the road already have pressure sensors to monitor your tires to avoid accidents, you know like the Ford Exploders. Soon all vehicles will be required to have them. Well here's a fact I bet you didn't know. Each wheel needs a sensor to tell the computer how much pressure the tire has. In order to send out a signal the sensor needs power and where do you think that power comes from? If you didn't guess it already, a common watch type battery. The question is how long will it last? These sensors cost you around $150 each!
