first, you'll probably get a few different opinions....

I went w/ Staun.  They're a little more expensive, but they're great and a ton of guys trust them.

+2  for staun.

they are easy to set and keep the setting for quite a while until they get enough dirt in them and then you have to clean them.  best practice to keep them clean: before attaching them, use the small end to push the valve stem and purge a little air to clean out the valve stem of dirt and dust, then attach the deflators, this will keep dirt out of the deflators so you dont have  to clean them as often.

I've seen a few options and agree I'm behind the power curve. Maybe one of these days I will fork out the cash for some.

Don't feel bad Celt. I'm just a half step ahead of you. I remove my valve stem core... 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand...

When questions are posed re: quality/expense, I always think back to a great ad campaign used by Bell Helmets:

Works pretty well.  All though, if I don't use it for a while, I have to refer to the directions.... lol

I' the kinda guy who would remove the core and stick it in my mouth. While counting I would take a sip of a frosty beverage and you know the rest of the story.
