I had the SeeLevel gauge installed and am not pleased with it. I wouldn't do it again. Just learn to understand what your gauges are telling you.

What is it that you are not liking?
I don't really think they're any more accurate than the original gauges and the voltage gauge doesn't read right. Even when filling the drinking water tank (which won't have anything floating around the tank) they're not very accurate. While filling, nothing will happen on the gauge and then all of a sudden the reading takes a large leap.
I think I would just pull it all out, but when they installed it, they had to enlarge the hole in the gauge cabinet to fit the SeeLevel gauge panel. While I kept my original gauge panel, I'll have to put in a new backing plate to mount it. I now have the MH back up near a shop I like and they'll look at it next spring to see if they can get it to work right.

Sounds like something wasn't installed correctly. Mine works very smoothly. The readouts change at approximate 6% increments. They will read 100% somewhat before they are completely full and the fresh water will show empty while there are several gallons left. Mine has the integrated water pump switch. When the pump isn't running the voltage readout is within .1v of the Trimetric readout. If the water pump is running, the localized voltage drop will make the voltage readout be several tenths lower.
Overall, if you don't mind paying the price the SeeLevel II is great. Installed mine in 2012 and not a hitch since.
