Bad customer service, missing parts.
Meter came missing a washer that I asked the company to send. The company asked for more $ for washer. I returned the meter and ordered a less expensive meter that works perfect.

it's pretty simple to install
what can you say about a water meter? it measures water use, it's pretty simple to install...if you have a multi unit building it's worth the cost.

More than expected for a $100.00 meter
The meter appears to work, and the stainless-steel body is a very solid feature.The dials frequent shutter and stall as they rotate which gives the impression of imminent failure, but the pulse is repeatable, which is all I need for the installed application.You can clearly hear the turbine wheel’s rotation, so I do not know how long this unit will last.In the end, it is a $100.00 meter so my expectation is not that it would be NASA quality, but only time will tell if the notations above are indicative of a very short lifecycle.

Worked good on Opensprinkler.... till it didn't
It was working for a while and then stopped. The sprinkler box had a leak and it submerged the meter and I think this is what might have killed it.You would figure that a stainless water meter could take water. I haven't been able to pull it and look deeper but it does not seem to be impeding flow at this time

OK meter, but poor quality control on the adapters
Meter seems to be decent quality, but the included NPT adapters are poorly made. They cut the threads too deep on them so they bottom out before sealing. I couldn't get it to seal with either thread tape or pipe dope. I ended up having to cut a couple threads off the end of the connector to get it to seal.Poor quality control does not inspire confidence.

Makes a great sub-meter for real-time monitoring of water usage
I purchased this meter because it offered the ability to give real-time information on water usage. I installed it downstream from the water company meter and ran a ~15' cat5 ethernet cable to my irrigation controller box and wired it to a Raspberry Pi (with a couple of 4.7K resistors inline to protect the Pi from shorts). A simple python script monitors the water meter and logs usage. Other scripts provide hourly alarm reports and daily reports on water usage.Regarding accuracy, this meter agrees to within about 2% of the Sensus iPerl meter that the water company uses.In terms of usefulness, the meter immediately pointed out a slow leak which turned out to be a slowly-running toilet (warped flapper) that I hadn't been told about. It also informed me that my drip irrigation system probably has some leaks in it, based on the amount of water used when it runs.

Good unit good price.
Very nice unit. Easy to install (threaded ends) seems to be quite sensitive to flow.
