This one is my primary gauge. In addition to connecting it to an air tank to quickly fill tires and air springs, it came be used independently to check pressure or bleed air. There appears to be good correlation to the truck’s TPMS display values.
I use this one. Bought back in 2017 and works great to this day. It digital so you can easily dial in pressures and it is very accurate and Dually friendly.
Buy one with features that are helpful to you. Pencil gauges are accurate enough for tire pressure and have the benefits of being cheap and small enough to toss in the glove box. Regardless of whatever gauge you end up with, buy a bunch of these to keep in vehicles and the garage. As far as accuracy and durability, I prefer an analog, dial-type mechanical gauge. Bourdon tube gauges have been around for 150 years and are still the go-to technology. They require no maintenance and keep their calibration.
Digital gauges are fine but they use a battery, so there is a maintenance requirement, and have electronics that can fail. They're pretty cheap so it's not the end of the world if you have to replace it.

I Mine looks like this one as well, although it says "Milton Industries" on the card it came on, and "Exel-Air" on the handle
Thanks for all the replies. I ordered a three of the suggested models from you all and will compare when I get them. I have several gauges in my arsenal currently but I am finding around a 10 psi difference between them. I may just try and find one that has a replaceable gauge and order a calibrated liquid filled gauge for it.
I have had this Jaco gauge for a couple of years - very happy with it. I had 4 or 5 cheap pencil gauges that were all crappy. They don't get used any more.

I have 2 of the Jaco gauges. First one I ordered was -5lbs. Jaco e-mailed me to ask what I thought of their product and I told them their gauge was well made but was -5lbs vs my truck TPMS. They immediately sent me another one which is -2lbs. Easy to deal with the variance in psi so I will continue to use the Jaco gauges and this company has the best customer service I have seen in a long time. I may just order a Milton gauge for comparison purposes. I'm pretty **** about proper tire inflation.
