Got one on mine. Cannot remember which one I put it on now. THINK it was the one to the tank.

How about one plumbed into the compressor outlet so you can see when the compressor fails. And one plumbed into the tank feed so you can confirm that the compressor has failed. You could also have a gauge connected to each corner feed so you can monitor differing pressures in each individual bag as the car is loaded. You could have dual gauges for each function to ensure the first gauge was reading correctly. Now that's a system. :p:D:D:D

Or even go the full hog, and have one on each valve block outlet, and at the air-bags to check for leaks on the airlines. It then follows to have one at each end of the tank feed.

I have used one on the tank feed during testing, and then removed the tee & guage afterwards.

or better still just maintain the EAS so it doesn't need monitoring !!

I was messing about.

Had a lot of issues when I bought the car. Now I just run a trace every 6 months to check the overall health of the system.

It might help with diagnostics but as you said, extra joints just add leaks. My emergency EAS kit leaks like f...

still, the gadget-head part of me still likes the idea.
