When your off the grid water can be sometimes pretty crucial and my water tank gauge is kinda ok, seems to show about half a tank upwards...but not what I'd call very accurate and I generally find myself lifting seat cushions to get to tank and have a look inside.
Which made me wonder if I could fit a site tube . On my Hymer there is a drain plug (I think they are about 1/4 inch). I was thinking about getting a second one...drilling a hole through it and configuring a pipe through it coming around underneath and then into some clear tubing fitted up the inside of the gas locker.
The pipework running underside could also incorporate a drain tap to save having to go into the tank to pull the plug!
I know, too much spare time on my hands, get a life etc
Any other 'nut cases' out there done anything similar or have one that's fitted as standard?
