Default ....

I use a digi...and keep my pressure at 35 psi. As far as which one of yours is accurate no one would be able to tell you that but I would test them all and go with the one in between.

I have a digital one myself, for the same reason you have described. Manual pressure gauges (or if you like analog) are notoriously inaccurate, especially the ones at petrol stations. Although the current foot pump I have is pretty accurate as well, but it cost about 3 times the amount of those crappy good for about a year made in China ones.
