Turns out our 100l rated tank only has 50l actual useable capacity - good to know! Now I know to set the gauge at 50l each time I refill the tank. And with the gauge we know know that we use between 4-7 l of water for a generous shower.
Thank you for this detailed video, couple of questions: 1. Why is your 100l has 50l usable instead of 100l 2. how do you tell it that it has been filled again, do you reset it or something? Thanks
When parked on a level surface I have a capacity of 70L. But when the van is on an upslope then I can draw out 85L. Each and every time you refill the tank, you must a) fill full b) reset the meter
Nice video mate! I’m assuming the flow meter can’t detect water going in to the tank only the outgoing water so do you just have to reset the meter every time you fill up?
@@VanHacks yeah. What I mean though is when I empty the tank sometimes it will say there is 15l left then next time it will show 0l but water is still in the tank

Good video. Thanks for sharing the info. When i install mine i'm curious to see how much water for good shower. thanks again
Glad to help. I use 7litres for a good long shower!

Yes and yes
I have one of these in my camper. I’m not sure how accurate they are. Everytime I empty the tank I get different readings some times it’s out by 20L
It's been ok for me. Do you remember to reset each and every time you refill the tank?

Hi. What size is the sensor part? What size pipe? I have 15mm and don't want to restrict flow
