My contact at Lippert was able to give me some information regarding the Tire Linc TPMS # LC37VR. The size of the sensor is fairly small, measuring about 3/4" thick and weighing 11 grams each. The battery life will depend on how much the system is used, but generally the batteries last 1-2 years. Set-up time is minimal; the sensors simply screw onto the valve stem and the signal booster will be wired up to 12 volts. The maximum range of communication is 33 feet, however, Lippert recommends trying to stay under 25 feet of distance between the sensors and the signal booster for best signal strength. There is no specific tire that this works with; it will work with any standard tire (rubber or metal valve stem). In regard to the monitor screen size, there is actually no monitor. This system works with a smartphone and uses the OneControl app as a "monitor". While this system comes with 4 sensors, it actually works with up to 20 sensors; you can use # LC97VR to add 2 more.

If you are looking for another option that does have a monitor, you could look into the TireMinder i10 TPMS # TM29FR.
This uses a monitor with dimensions of 3-1/2" wide, 3/4" deep, and 4" tall. The sensor batteries have a life of 9-14 months. The size and weight of the sensors is similar to the system mentioned above. Setup is simple; screw the sensors onto the valve stems of the tires, wire the signal booster to 12v, and power on your monitor. This system has a max operating range of 100 feet when in motion, and 200 feet when stationary. This will work with any standard tire (metal or rubber valve stem). 4 sensors are included, but it will work with up to 20 sensors; use # TM66FR to add 2 more sensors.

I have attached demonstration videos that further explain these two systems.
