Battery SG 1.295? Is that even possible???
...or have I just bought another useless hydrometer that should be tossed along with the one with the 4 floating balls and the EZ-Red? It is a Hydro Volt and after reading about it, I thought it ju...

Great post SoundGuy!
For most the beeg problem is finding a reliable reference voltage in the first place. I shed a tear because my Tektronix is due to be sent back for a 140 dollar calibration + postage and insurance both ways. But it's in Michoacan and I'm here in B.C.S.
There is NOTHING on the face of the earth more reliable than a calibrated bobber. The Swiss gizmo would be OK when checked against a Freas once in awhile. Parts that move, meter shafts, seals, yadda, are not bulletproof. But until gravity fails or the laws of physics are repealed, the bobber hydrometer can not be improved on - it is, stake-your-life-on-it-accurate to the ultimate degree (as long as it's a Freas).
If motorhome idiot designers make checking gravity a nightmare, graduate to AGM. It's that simple. Almost as simple as the minds that created the battery issue. If a developer ever built a house as careless and stupid as some of these new rigs, they leave themselves to have their skin removed in thin strips.
