I’ve seen adds for that tank gauge before and was very interested in it. Good results with it? Might need to plan to get one this winter.

Yeah. I don’t wanna get an auto-fill subscription plan because it usually costs extra money for no reason, and I don’t get to shop around.

But then you gotta always be checking your tank, and trusting the float gauge is accurate (it’s not. not even close), and so I’ve run out 3 times in the last 6 years, which is more annoying than anything cause I gotta make trips to the gas station for diesel, then bleed the lines out to get the furnace re-fired.

The sensor was like $180 on Amazon. No accounts or subscriptions required. Just connects to your home wifi and will send you an email or a text message at 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 whatever you set it to.
