Default Accurate tire pressure gage?

It seems that glider tires are always overinflated when you land hard
and underinflated when you have to push it a half-mile to the staging
line. So I'd think that +/- 2 psi would be plenty accurate.

I have used an analog, i.e. not electric for many years. Works well compared to slide type and no battery issues like a digital.

Looks like this:
