Digital or Analog Pressure Gauge? What’s your preference?

[PasadenaMike]

Analog all the way. Just swapped out my Edgun digital with a Wika and ordered another one for my .177. I think digital gauges are the devil. They change #s if you look at them wrong. I just want to know roughly how much pressure is in the tank.

Agreed! My hand pump, S510, and Ghost all run an analog guage and all are spot on with each other! ( Or they are all 3 off? ) As long as it's a decent quality gauge I think it's the way to go. Only thing I ever liked about digital was with the Sekhmet gen 2 gauges you can imput some gun specs and it will let you know how many shots you have on a fill @ your reg pressure. Tuners dream....so not really for me

Analog is where it’s at, sir.

Performed the Exorcism ritual this morning. No more evil digital gauge

With my failing 40 year old eyes, anything I can see.

the answer to ALL things digital or really anythng that uses batteries.

Mjölnir!!! I’ve been looking for you, come home now!!! lol

Yeah I don’t know why Edgun keeps going back to digital. Not cool.

I can say that my 40 year old eyes really like the white dial and black needle

My Revere is impossible

Works perfect I don’t want to know it lost 3 bar from the cold and gained 2 from heat

After dealing with some problems with the older Edgun EDMU digital gauge and owning a Sekhmet gauge, I'll be sticking with analog gauges/manometers. Give me a good ol' WIKA gauge and I'm happy. I currently have a Sekhmet on my Leshiy Classic which I haven't shot in a while. At the moment, I'm trying to remember where the hell the proprietary charger is at.

As I stated previously in a different post....I am all for the digital Sekhmet on my Ghost's Regulator. The gauge I have has been working flawlessly, the battery lasts a very long time before needing to recharge. On a multiple barrel/caliber system like the Ghost, coupled with utilizing different weight pellets for different shooting applications....I found that the higher level of precision of the digital gauge (along with the FX V2 Pocket Chronograph) allows you to more accurately dial in a "tune". Also, its response time allows you to see the dynamics of the shot cycle, so that you can, if you so choose, determine an optimal regulator setting to minimize recharge time against shot to shot velocity variability.
I didn't see the need for it on the bottle other than the ability to have a readout that is properly aligned. I did replace the bottle regulator with a Wiki 0-250 bar so that I would get a larger "spread" on the needle and thus a more accurate indication of bottle pressure.....and of course like the OEM gauge, it also did not line up when installed...
