Only one I know of is Continental.

Thanks Brad! As I read through the sites, the sensors last 4 years. I was hoping for 6-8. Seems the stem caps are probably better suited for our use.

This might be a little spendy, but I found this online that may just be the ticket to reach those tight dually stems. I bought the inflator gauge and locking inflator head from the vendor directly but here are the amazon links.
These get really good reviews from the vendors site. I think Steve Vance would approve!

Simon, the locking head might be the ticket since it does not have the 30 degree reverse angle. I spent hours looking for something like that. I think Mr Vance would approve. Good find!! I will see how mine works, but I have a feeling this will be added to my bi-weekly Amazon order for the rig. I may have to join Amazon Prime now.

I bought it from LockNlube direct. Same free shipping. I agree. I spent hours looking for a non angled head and when I saw the $100 price tag I wondered why it was so expensive. Of course I had no choice but the fact it can be locked onto the stem made it worth its weight in gold. I also bought the LockNLube tire inflator gauge to go with it. It didn't end there, I splurged for the Milwaukee 18v inflator (through Home Depot) since reviews showed it can handle big truck tires. Home Depot has it on special for $199 with two 5.o batteries and charger! Went back to Amazon and bought a case for it as well. Personally, I hate dragging out long air hoses unless it is absolutely necessary. My coach does not have an air hose reel *yet*!
