Agreed. My main concern for the last decade or so is that some of the not =E2=
=80=9Creal=E2=80=9D expensive manufacturers I used to use have cheapened the=
ir products so it=E2=80=99s hard to judge quality.

I have to agree. I have a little nicer electronic one than the one

I've had the batteries go bad in several of my electronic gauges and leak
