1. A pressure and temperature measuring gauge device comprising:
a plurality of gauge devices, wherein each one of said plurality of gauge devices comprises a body, a rubber cover, and a threaded member for mounting to a tire valve stem of a tire of a vehicle;
each one of said plurality of gauge devices further comprising a circuit board assembly, a pressure sensor, and a temperature sensor;
wherein said pressure sensor measures an internal air pressure of a tire mounted thereto; wherein said temperature sensor measures an internal air temperature of said tire mounted thereto;
each one of said plurality of gauge devices further comprising a battery and a transmitter for transmitting said internal air pressure and said internal air temperature of said tire mounted thereto;
a mobile app for receiving said internal air pressure and said internal air temperature of said plurality of gauge devices; and
said mobile app displays said internal air pressure and said internal air temperature of said each tire of the vehicle; and
wherein the body is a spherical body comprising a first half and a second half attachable to the first half via a plurality of fasteners; and
wherein the threaded member is attached to the first half of the spherical body at a continuous opening; and
wherein the second half of the spherical body comprises a central internal cavity configured to retain the circuit board assembly, the pressure sensor, the temperature sensor, the battery, and the transmitter.
