10 years???

Are we all talking the same flowmeter? I didn't think their in-line digital meter had been out that long. The 3" version was just available last year (in-season, 2011). I got one, used it for a while, then returned it. Apparenlty I didn't have the 20" straight run (per instructions) necessary for accuracy. Also, I opened the case to check the batteries....and it was wet inside. I didn't think that was a good thing. Banjo makes a lot of stuff & it all usually works fine. However, their 3" in-line digital flow meter didn't work for me. Perhaps it was just my bad luck.
