## Description

Great prices on your favourite Gardening brands, and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Purrfick ! - This water meter is simple to install (click and go!), easy to use (one button press!) and accurate (to 0.1 of a litre!). I use it with a motorhome to fill my freshwater tank. No more peering in through the window to try to see the 1/3, 2/3 or 3/3 led display! This meter, attatached to the end of my fill hose nearest the vehicle, allows me to accurately add 10 litres or whatever I want up to its 120 litre max. Totally brill. HIGHLY recommended.
Review: Nice easy to use meter, seems accurate at 1 litre per minute and above. - Bought this with trepidation due to mixed reviews and answers to questions that contradict each other and the item description. Found the meter to include all expected features and be accurate from 1 litre per minute upwards. At very low trickles the meter significantly under-reads, and flow only starts being reported at all at about 0.5 litres per minute. There are four display modes selected by pressing the button momentarily: two totals that are reset manually, one total that auto-resets whenever flow starts and an instantaneous flow rate. Press and hold the button to reset either of the displayed totals (Total 1 and Total 2). In flow rate mode, press and hold the button to change units between litres and gallons (which appear from measurement to be US gallons, 1.2 US gallons = 1 UK gallon). Note: changing the measurement unit resets all totals to zero. Either hose connector can be unscrewed to reveal a 3/4" BSP thread, male on the bottom and female on the top of the unit. This is the standard domestic hose tap thread. Water flows through a plastic tube within the unit, any leakage is likely to be due to the screw-on connectors being loose (they screw on to rubber washers). Note if you plumbed directly to the female thread it would prevent removal of the electronics to change the battery. I would say the unit was splash-resistant, there is potential for water ingress via the pushbutton and possibly via the battery enclosure (which is sealed with a rubber bung). The impeller is removable for cleaning.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great if you need precise metering
*by W***Y on 24 October 2020*

I use this water meter for filling the fresh water tank on my motorhome. The tank is 100 litres but is so easy to overfill as the on-board gauge isn't so accurate. Using this water meter, filling of the tank is so straightforward. It comes with standard hose fittings and I simply fit it onto the campsite tap in a second or two before connecting my hose. I fill to 90 litres and shut off the tap - no more guesswork and no more annoying overflows. Perfect. *Every product I review is purchased with my own money. Like many people, I rely on unbiased reviews when making my shopping choices and so that’s exactly what you’ll get from me. All I ask is that if you find my review useful, please click on the Helpful button. Thanks
