Digital pressure gauge is not good for mental heath.

[PasadenaMike]

Wow I wish couple of my guns didn’t have digital gauges. I suffer from leak anxiety. Slight change in atmosphere and the pressure indicated changes. Maybe I’ll put an analog one? Probably not. I’ll just suffer lol

Those digi gauges, they are the . lol yeah, now seriously they got to go. A source of anxiety.

After having a few digital gauges on the tank fill portion of my airgun I realized it's not something which is critical. Now having a digital gauge for the regulator is much more useful. Considering most of the analog gauges have an accuracy of 5-10% a digital gauge will really show you where you're tuned in.

I thought I'd tweak your OCD issues with this picture. Heliboard in a Red Wolf with pressure readout to 0.1 bar. It'll move all over the place with temp changes and with each shot as the tanks cools and heats.

i dont want anything else in my life that needs a battery.

lol

Every time I read this thread and see your response it makes me laugh. Thank you.

Very much the same here. I spent decent time with an electronic gun, and thought quite highly of it, I just personally prefer mechanical, be it guns or gauges.

My father-in-law prefers cars with roll down windows and an AM radio with a turn dial.

There’s no replacement for displacement. I don’t disagree. Along with the smell of a slightly rich tuned carb. I’m not that young to not remember cleaning out an old carb. But not old enough to embrace some tech in all areas of my life. I also talk to my lightbulbs to turn on/off.
I draw the line at connecting my new washing machine to WiFi though.

Hey @TerryE1 that's a strong statement about Sekhmet gauges! I have no personal experience with them but they sound good. Can you please share some of the reasons for your opinion? Thanks.

Me too.. vinal seats and rubber floor mats as well ..

I'd guess I'd prefer the nostalgic mechanical anolog guages over digital. No battery , no gps, no google to just give a simple pressure reading ..

I'd be glad to.

I purchased one to put on my Edgun Leshiy Classic. The unit wouldn't scroll through the menu to every function. This was after I watched the video tutorial *and* contacted their customer service rep who told me to do the same. I sent it back to them and told them they can have their gauge back. I didn't ask for a refund, either.

Thanks for the background. I'm sorry to hear that.

What gauge do you have now ?

Was it the Gen 1 gauge I wonder @TerryE1 ? I heard they were junk as well and plagued with issues. Second gen seem alot better (Sub12 airgunners did a very decent video on his experience with one) I also think if your Gen 1 is junk you just return it and they will ship a Gen 2!....but as cool as I think they might be I am analog all the way as well! If my Ghost reg says 165 and I dial it to 150 and it's all of a sudden shooting more accuratly at the speeds I want, I don't really care if reg gauge is off by 5 or 10%. Tank pressure gauge needs to be fairly close though imo!
