Pressure Gauge

Looking for a pressure gauge so that I may "keep an eye" on the vaporstat I will be installing.

I currently have a 0-3 PSI however, I think that range is a bit too high considering I'll be working with ounces. I was looking at 0-15 in H2O but don't know.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dave

    A/C Gauges

    Thanks for the suggestion William.

    I looked at my A/C manifolds (3) and all of them read in PSI - 0- 120.

    Will look for others.

    Perfect

    Thanks Dan and William.

    Now - if 27.730 = 1 PSI - 8 ounces equals mumble, mumble

    Hey - is there 16 ounces to the pound???

    LOL

    Thanks again,

    Dave
