Disappointing….
"The battery was flat after only a week. Backlight faded until it did not work at all. Your help desk kept telling me I was looking at it from an angle!"

This digital pressure gauge has a small size, is accurate and includes a back lit display. It's handy for measuring gas pressure and will enable you to monitor pressures very easily.
Traditional analogue gauges require a small capillary mechanism where a small pipe expands and unravels under pressure. This in turn drives a mechanical cog to rotate the gauge needle. This age old technique works quite well especially in large gauges but as this mechanism is manufactured smaller and smaller a tradeoff between accuracy and size becomes the issue. With very small gauges such as a 27mm x 27mm Mini Gauge it's difficult to make them better than 10% accuracy due to the physical constraints of the mechanical components.
KegLand has developed the worlds most compact mini digital gauge with backlight illumination. This very compact design retains high accuracy while still meeting the desirable small form factor. This meets the growing need as mini keg systems, mini regulators and other more compact keg dispensing solutions is required.
Specifications:
Battery Life: More than 2 years (using the mini gauge once a day)
Battery Type: CR2032
Auto Battery Saver: YES, screen automatically turns off after 15sec
Size: 27mm x 27mm
duotight Stem: 8mm
NOTE: This gauge is not suitable for measuring pressure of liquids. It is only for measuring gas pressure. If liquid gets into the pressure transducer it will damage the gauge. If you want to measure liquid pressure you can purchase one of these analogue gauges:

Works after battery replacement
"Was delivered with a flat battery but Kegland says they will reimburse the cost of a replacement. You need to take out 2 screws that hold a black plastic battery holder and push it out from the other side. Much easier to read than the mk4 regulator gauge and seems more accurate."
8mm (5/16) Male duotight x Mini gauge.
"Great replacement for the analog gauge."
Pants
"Reading fluctuates more than is possible halfway through a ferment, backlight doesn't work either. Don'twaste yourmoney, I refitted the analogue version."
"It's the best. I like it"
Under pressure
"Nifty little thing and it seems fairly accurate"
Digital easy gauge
"Easy to read gauge instead of squinting my eyes to see"
Arrived 2nd hand. Flat battery and stripped screw.
"Not feeling great about the gauge. Installed it today. The LCD was a bit dull. However, when the backlight is activated, the light is dull and the numbers disappear. Down to the shops to buy a new battery. $10 FFS. Now works OK. Oh, yes, the smaller Phillips-head screw is all but stripped. Yes, I used the correct screw driver."
Great improvement in pressure fermenting
"A great addition to my spunding valve. Gives reliable and accurate pressure readings and much easier to read than the old analog ones."
Fast and precise readings
"I use this gauge in combination with a duotight Gas Ball lock disconnect (KL20756) for checking the pressure of primed mini-keg. It works great as I can quickly and accurately get a pressure reading for anything with a ball lock."
