Much better design
Disclosure:  I bought this product directly from the distributor--did not realize it was available on Amazon.<br /><br />Really like this product.  The design of this unit is SO much better than the traditional tank gauge!  The traditional gauge has this long, articulated rod with a float on one end.  But when the tank is more than half full, a good portion of the rod is below the surface of the oil in the tank.  And that means the rod and the hinge get "gunked up" with residue causing the gauge to fail.<br /><br />This product has a float attached to a string which goes up/down to register the amount of oil in the tank.  In other words, the only thing touching the oil is the bottom half of the float.  Nothing to gunk up and cause failure.  Plus, the gauge itself is so easy to read--very much like a bedside alarm clock.<br /><br />Very easy install and works like a charm.  I would highly recommend this product to others.
