I've been thinking about getting a set of these things. I'll admit they are a bit dorky but I like the idea of being able to visually see when my tires need more air. Anyone use them before? Are they useful or junk?

Yeah looks like they are junk after reading some reviews on amazon about them.

They look pretty awsome but you can imagine something like that would be flimsy for $8.

All the ones I ever saw come through my bay as a mechanic, not a single one was ever close to the correct pressure. The best was still about 2 psi below what that valve cap said. Just check your pressure while you fill up at the gas station.
