I use this one.

It is hardwired to a switched circut so it turns on and off with the ignition key. Also the sensor batteries are replaceable. I have it mounted to the false tank with Velcro.

Nice unit, And I see its range is such that it will work for a trailer.

Thanks Gene.

Yes. I believe you can add up to 4 sensors per unit. Nice for trailer tires.

Here's a pic of it mounted. It's just below my GPS.

Hope this helps.

I have one Orange Electronics It has the sensors inside the wheels .
I don't like the cap type because the only thing keeping the air in the tire is the seal of the cap.
I did have to modify the rear wheel by putting a counter bore inside because the valve stem is short on there sensor.
