I am considering aTPMS for our 2600RB as well and would like to know what it cost and where you found it. I have seen many of them and note that it is a tire link "prewire" on ours and am aware that still need 90% of the system. Is it accurate? Does it work on an android phone, do not need another screen in cab. Like ideas on where to mount it that folks have used. Thanks Daveflyfshrockies, 2021 imagine 2600RB, Ford F-150, XLT supper crew 3.5 eco boost with max tow. Dave and Toni (and the awesome Aussie Bayley, he's the social one)

Industrial velcro was used to attach my booster to the front frame member. Its wired into the vehicle/trailer charge wire and is powered when the trailer plug is connected to the truck.
I should add: My charge wire is routed directly to a 20 amp Renogy DCDC Lithium charger and is not directly connected to the RV battery. Otherwise, on a traditional system the booster would be on all the time.

If you want a phone compatible system be sure you don't use your phone for other bluetooth functions while travelling. I wanted to get the Tire minder blue tooth version for the same reason as you, less screens. But I use my phone for streaming music while travelling. So I couldn't do both on the same device.

I also use the TM-77 where it has worked perfectly but this past season it has dropped the furthest sensor twice. This may have been due to a defective booster since the case had opened up slightly on mine. I sealed it with silicone but it lost a sensor once after re-sealing it. This is very startling when the alarm goes off and your initial thought is whether the issue is catastrophic or not.
Today I ordered and received the new 100ft capable Rino EX booster where this should eliminate any interference or a weak booster.
Here are a couple pics on the new extended range booster where its fully potted so its waterproof and can be mounted outside without issue.
