We've had that pressure sensor last year too and it was still required last year and probably is again. It is for making sure your compressor turns off before you go over 120 psig.

It's too bad if the TI sensor is missing though (it was an optional sensor last year but has a lot of interesting applications). I hope it was just from your kit and not gone gone. We didn't get ours with our kit last year. Well I guess we can still use last year's TI this year since we didn't use it on our previous robot.

I think you either didn't read or totally misunderstood my post.

The TI sensor is no longer part of the kit.

any stored pressure. The valve must be placed on the robot so that it is visible and accessible.
I know how they work and what they do
