Rich,

One more input!

I looked at these other systems and the Wema is by far the best choice for
$$ and simplicity and reliability. There are different sensors for fuel and
water and waste, so be specific when ordering and since the sensor' length
is tank specific you need to know the depth of the tank where the sensor
will mount and keep it 1" - 1/2" off the bottom. There is no calibration
required and no interpretation. The gauge readout is analog and better then
indicator lights that only give a suggestion +/- 1/4 tank.

I wish you well amigo, let me know how I can help out,

Dave
