Hi after recommendations for a good water meter in Litres.
A faulty meter last year cost me dearly.
It reverted to gallons somehow and displayed litres.

Why get one in liters? Then you just have to continually mentally
convert them to gallons in order to know how much water you are putting
in.

The rest of the world went metric but you didn't notice?
Americans can't even get the size of the gallon right, and the
brightest stars in the sky can't work out how to convert between
Imperial and metric units.
Revisit the early 80's, resurect the metrication board and joint the
rest of the world.
England was terrified of decimal currency but how many people would
know now what 3 pounds thrupence three farthings was?

Better start lobbying to get rid of that stupid Imperial system once and for all. Gallons, feet whatever. Just unnecessary extra complication :-)

Andy, Andy, Andy..
It was a joke.

PS: The answer is $5.62. Or, more importantly, approximately 10% of a
barrel of oil this morning (1 barrel = 42 US gallons). How are you
going to measure that with your "litre" meter? The answer: you will
have to do some mental conversions. :-) BTW, I don't need to do any
Imperial to metric conversions. We use American units, not Imperial..
We won the war, remember? :-)

Tell me about it!
My airspeed indicator is in Furlongs per Fortnight, and my vario is in
millimeters per shake.
