Finally, the hold valve allows you to remove the gauge from the tire valve, yet the reading does not go away / reset to zero. The reading is held on the gauge face.

Thanks for the info. I thought the hold feature was related to the quick deflate button. I think I'll get it wo the hold, almost double the price...
