I have 3 and they vary 1-2 lbs from each other. Buy a good one and only use that one.

I bought one for about 40 bucks (maybe more?) and its a really good one. It has a dial and a locking collar so you can lock the pressure reading.... I picked it up at a NAPA store a few years back. Not sure if they still carry it... can't even remember who makes it. Check in their tool section or catalog... you could probably find an equlivant from a snap-on etc.

Well I have two $35.00 air gauges that are three pounds different. I'll pick one and assume its the more accurate one.
