Oh-oh, now you done it! Mentioned nitrogen in tires.
Gonna become just like an oil thread now!
I bought one too at WalMart. When I use my stick gauge to double check the air pump's reading, it's in agreement. I had a Black and Decker previously that was wildly inaccurate when I would double check with a stick gauge and a digital gauge. Turns out the tip that you attach to the tire valve was leaking badly. Went to B&D store for a replacement tip and hose, and they are no longer made, nor do they support their older models. Very disappointed in them.

I do a quick check of the tires after unplugging the tender. Takes less than a minute to add air if needed.....It's become habit along with the rest of the pre-ride once over.
