I bought one of these water flow meters for a job where I had to troubleshoot water flow through a number of geothermal heat pumps. It did help me, I used my watch and this meter to clock water flow in gallons per minute. I had to buy brass adapters to connect this in line. I first tested the accuracy using a 5 gallon bucket and a garden hose. It seemed to be accurate. It measures to one decimal place like 2.7 gallons.I left it in my truck until this fall when I reseeded my lawn. I hooked it to my garden hose next to the nozzle when I was hand watering the lawn - on the first day of use it blew apart. The plastic tube was barely glued in place internally. My water pressure on this garden hose is around 80PSI which is higher then most houses.This is because many builders used to put the front spicket on a house on street pressure which is up to 130PSI and will blow hoses and nozzle pretty quickly. The rest of the house piping is connected to a 60PSI Pressure Reducing valve (PRV). I liked the higher pressure and flow on the front hose but after ruining many hoses over 10 years I installed a 80PSI PRV on this pipe in the crawlspace so I wouldn't blow hoses but is still stronger then the standard house pressure. This ORBIT meter does NOT measure pressure or time just flow amount.I bought a replacement Orbit flow meter and hooked it at my spicket so it wouldn't get pulled around like the other end of the hose. It is working ok at 80 PSI and is helping to figure my water usage over the last 3 weeks of daily watering. I make sure to turn the faucet off after watering and draining the water pressure on the hose. It works well so far.More inforation: It is cheap plastic with an internal watch battery it seems to automatically come on when I run the water and shut off after I stop running water - to save battery. It has a garden hose threaded swivel female on the input and a male GHThread on the ouput. It shows 2 displays upper and lower on a postage stamp size lcd display one is cumulative and the other is one time (current flow) I use gallons but it believe it will measure in litres also. Orbit seems to be the same product as all the others on amazon that look like it but may be a different color.For a handy cheap flow meter it is worth having. It is cheap plastic, but it doesn't leak. The two buttons on the front are to reset the cumulative total and switch between liters and gallons.
