Review on Fuel Transfer Liter Meter - Fill-Rite 807CL1 806CL 1" Aluminum 3 Wheel Gravity Meter with Strainer, 19-76 LPM by Andre Belitz

Doesn't work if you can't fill the tank at full speed/explosion.

Not impressed. I use the same brand (Fill-Rite) 15 GPM pump to fuel our gas vehicles. As long as the pump is running at full power, everything is fine. Approach to filling and let the pump only pump at 10-25% capacity, the device does not read the fuel flowing through it. We have a 2020 Rav4 that everyone but Toyota has a known problem getting the last 4+ gallons of fuel in the tank and the last 4+ gallons need to be filled slowly. This unit will not read more than 1/10 gallon after the nozzle clicks out of the first detent notch. I'm sure it would work fine on my tractors, backhoes, etc if I wanted to pump no more than 15-20 gallons per minute. but I'm moving up to 40+ so I don't go out all day. When I went to the Fill-Rite website (before purchasing) it said this device would work with pumps with a maximum capacity of 20 GPM, so I ended up spending 3-4 times as much on this famous device . So I could be sure of the quality. displayed results. I think the joke is about me (and I think I still don't have a good way of budgeting for gas costs for my cars. Maybe one of those $25 Chinese made displays would be better - I'd really hope so not, but .) Bottom line: if you can't fully refuel your vehicles, don't keep this article - it doesn't provide any useful information.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Long delivery time
