Gardena 8188-20 Water Meter - Multi-Colour

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.

So I brought this to use on my Koi pond so I know how much water I use with top up's but also when I need to change my Chlorine filters and so I know how many ltrs have passed through. I was sceptical that this product would do the trick, but it is spot on. I installed it inline after my auto top up valve so it didn't have water pressure constantly in it, and It works brilliantly. I tried to upload a photo, but it wouldn't upload, but if you wanted it would be easy to pipe this up solidly inline if you wanted as the incoming and outgoing hose connections unscrew and could easily be replaced with other connections. As well as total ltrs (can be converted to gals etc) used it also measures the actual flow rate thought the pipe, which makes it easy to set up pond equipment. Very pleased with it and a good price.

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.

The water meter is simple to set up and simple to use; and so i'll keep my review brief. - It just fits neatly between the tap and your hosepipe (see photo for the standard fitting that it comes with) - The big advantage for me is that it has shown me how much water I waste on washing the car and watering plants. I have had it 12 months now, and this little device has really made me reduce my water usage by about 30 - 40%. Purely for environmental concerns it's a winner ; but one day when water metering reaches my neighbourhood, this will undoubtedly have me operating on a lower water budget. - there is only 1 button to press, and it cycles you round the 4 readings. I love it ... I wish that I had bought one years ago.

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 little gadget, just what I needed! To see how accurate this little thing is, I hooked it up to my garden hose a filled a 36l container and it was bang on. I purchased this to accurately measure the volume of my odd shaped koi pond, inc pipes and filters, so I'm confident this will do the job on the next water change.

This little device is great. Very easy to use. You just plug it into the hose either at the tap or at the delivery end of the hose and the little digital read out tells you exactly how many litres you are putting into your tank. This means that you can just fill enough for your immediate needs and do not have to drag arond a full tan of water or risk running out.

Total rubbish. Didn’t work at all. I sent photos plus a video to the seller showing this, and they say they want more information. AVOID! They emailed me saying, "We acknowledge receipt of your request, we are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Riktigt smidigt att använda då man vet hur mycket färskvattentanken rymmer och därmed kan stoppa påfyllningen av vattnet innan det sprutar åt alla håll.

レビューを見て、通常規格のジョイントではないことや、水漏れがあるなど書かれていたため、どうしようか悩みながらも購入。 実際に使用した感じでは水漏れも一切なく、また普通にホームセンターで購入したホースのジョイントと変わってもおらず普通に接続できました。 今回は洗車用の純水器と高圧洗浄機の間につなげ、純水の使用量を図るために使用しました。 実際の数値を見ると、SUV車一台洗うのに、約１２ℓほどであったことが分かります。 悩んでの購入でしたが、買って正解でした！ あとは耐久性がどれくらいあるか、使用しながら確認したいと思います。

Good product, delivered with a smile on time. Perfect
