Best Pressure & Vacuum Gauges
Infrared thermometer for noncontact surface temperature measurement for use in monitoring electrical, mechanical, HVAC, and automotive systems. Measures temperature from -30 to 650 degrees C (-22 to 1202 degrees F) with an accuracy of + or - 1 degree C or + or -1.0% of the reading from 0 to 650 degrees C. Dual lasers rotate to pinpoint the edges of the measurement area.

"It works fine, even with water in it, and the price is quite reasonable."
"I use the meter for measuring tire air pressure."
"This guage is doing fine and giving me solid pressure readings on my in ground sand filter system."
"To help keep water out, I installed the gauge so the face tilts slightly down toward the ground (maybe this is the trick to longer life?)."
"Last pool filter gauge lasted less than a year and cost more than double."
"Overall, cheap quality that will work for a few months."
"Installed the end of May,2017-3 months later and its already stuck and not working on my pool filter system."

"Good economical Gage."
"Nice wide dial for the price, easy to see through binoculars."
"It does and is what is advertised. Fits two sizes."
"A metal liquid filled housing would be better, but those lose accuracy with time just like the cheap ones."
"now its stuck on sixty lbs pressure and just stays there."
"Twisted off brass insert while installing."
"The result was water leaking out from the threads."

"good price."
"Works great well built product."
"The joints already have plumbing tape as well which point to the attention to detail. Make sure the gage itself (on any regulator) is out of the sun for long periods of time."
"I like the steady water pressure since all campgrounds seem to have different water pressure. There is nothing like getting water thrown all over you when you turn on a faucet with to much water pressure and my husband said it not good for the plumbing in the RV with to much pressure."
"This is built solid and is accurate."
"brass threads crossed will not allow hose connection."

Best Vacuum Gauges
Documenting measurements: When you use the testo 552 in combination with the testo 570 digital manifold, you can save the testo 552's measuring values or display them directly on a laptop via the optional EasyKool software. Ensuring dehumidification: The testo 552 not only measures pressure, but also gives the water evaporation temperature associated with it.

Find Best Price at Amazon"No real issues there, although I had to relocate it to get a better stream of air (the initial mounting location would not trigger the change, probably due to a lack of adequate pressure). So I deducted two stars since most people will need those detailed instructions, as they are not electricians or HVAC contractors."
"You cut the white wire and attach each end of the white wire to one of the posts on the switch."
"If you have any concern about low pressure differential to trip the switch in the duct work where you are installing this, pick a better location with a higher pressure differential- the switch is not reliably as sensitive as I had hoped it was."
"I want to add a booster fan for the kitchen exhaust as the fan from the microwave is not powerful and a pretty long distance to the outside wall with the 4" pipe."
"#2 black wire common from house direct to fan. #3 connect line to "open" on switch back to white wire on fan to make the loop. #4 connect earth to switch box and duct fan. Turns fan on immediately after furnace kicks on."
"Placement is important, I tried using it where the booster fan is ( has to be upstream from the Booster fan ) but the pressure change in the duct was too low so it didn't work."
"I placed the switch downwind of the 1st floor damper near where the branch duct with the booster fan takes off."
"I moved it 18' from the Tjernlund DBF2 Dryer Duct Booster Fan and was too sensitive."
Best Pressure Transmitters
The infrared sensing terminals can be mounted up to 300 feet apart and will send a signal back to the DCR-2500 receiver up to half mile away* anytime someone passes between the sensors. Enter your model number to make sure this fits.

Find Best Price at Amazon"Makes no sense to me, you'd think with a broken beam kind of system, it would reliably trip every time a human sized thing walks past it, and it really blows my mind that at times it decides to not trip when a big ole car drives past it? I'd say it works reliably probably about 97% to 98% of the time, and the good thing about this, over the PIR sensors I've tried is it NEVER gives false alarms, so it is a great improvement over any PIR sensors I've tried... but I'm rating it only 3 stars because I'd expect this to work better since it's a broken beam system..."
"I have had the BBT-2500 sensors for a year now and this is what I have experienced: first, they are hard to "pair" until you realize that just because the power buttons light-up that doesn't mean the devices are turned on. I have an automatic gate nearby that has 12 volt power so I just ran wires to the transmitter and receiver to keep them charged through the dark winter months."
"Works well so far and I have had this for over 1 month."
"I have these installed across my driveway covering about 25 feet of frontage and along side a fairly busy road, maybe 4 feet off the shoulder."
"I have had to replace these 3 times now, The problem is not in the product but in the location of installation."
"Installed across our driveway and spaced about 40ft apart, and at a distance of about 100 yd to the receiver located just inside a window at the front of our house."
"Tried leaving them in the sun to charge assuming the batteries are dead, that did not help. There is nothing anywhere on the internet, or their web site accept very the very unhelpful, incomplete users guide."
"Put them up in July and in December they are no longer working."
