Pros
  • Large easy to read LCD display
Cons
  • Expensive

Wouldn't buy another unit, hopefully HM only sells the impeller with the magnet so I can fix it, otherwise it…

Pros
  • Programmable alarm indicates exceeded
Cons
  • Packaging crumpled

If you never run out of…

Pros
  • Tracks total liters or gallons used
Cons
