  1. Thanks, Kirk - I'm looking at it right now. WalMart is cheaper but 'out of stock' and I'm trying elsewhere before resorting to Amazon.
  2. Oh, I think you all have -- weight is what we were doing - a pain. Hot water is obviously one of the cheapest and maybe one of the more accurate. Looking at the ultrasound made in Germany, as long as we go with the concept it is calibrated for a 20 pounder and go from them; the little stick on gauges are easy and cheap enough as a starter..... so will probably pick a couple of these options to use. Thanks, Everyone for guiding me on my options!!!!
  3. Gotta admit I really like this - just plain old logic applied - with hot water!
  4. Ray,IN - see what you mean about confusion of application; sure looks like they are using the ultrasound on refillable tanks in the video and the array shown at the end in succession. Hmmm. Quite a span in the pricing when doing this product search, also. Chad H probably using his on a refillable tank, maybe a glitch in the German-to-English translation?! Thanks again to all who have chimed in here to give me products to research.
  5. Hi, about two years ago I was looking for husband-type Christmas gift suggestions and I believe someone (Dartmouth?) suggested a propane gauge. I found the thread, can't find the suggestion. Bought a lot of great gifts from y'all's recommendations - the AE diagnostics for the truck came in useful repeatedly, Progressive power surge protector, Hitchmate step works wonderfully, water regulator, etc. Can anyone suggest/comment on the propane gauge? Looked on line and I'm finding not much beyond a $12 Camco or Chinese gauge - and I'm guessing that's not it, but don't really know. Any help appreciated. TIA
  6. Very interesting on all events. Thanks for writing that all out. Husband was groaning a bit as I was reading it aloud.
  7. Chiefneon: Wld you mind elaborating how GS was able to get away without paying a towing bill like this? Loopholes in their coverage? Husband is just about to renew with them, so am more hesitant now. Thank you.
  8. Just wanted to let Vicki know I got the folding step for the tire as suggested from Amazon.  It works well - both the truck and my SUV.  It looked well made, good welds, thick paint, came with covers so it would not scratch itself plus the carry bag.  Thanks again, and Merry Christmas!

  9. Cut and paste from Livestrong.com to answer those sugar comparison comments as well as baking, cooking, etc. w/honey. Also, when purchasing honey from a farm source, ask if they medicate their bees at all, as it will be deposited into the honey and harvested and passed along. Nutrients in Honey Fresh, raw honey is loaded with antioxidants, though it contains only trace elements of other nutrients. The main advantage to using honey instead of refined sugar is that the natural sugars in honey take longer to digest than refined sugar. That means that your pancreas does not have to secrete as much insulin to capture and store the extra sugar. When the insulin scours the sugar out of your blood, your brain signals that it will need more sugar and you feel hungry. Honey can help you avoid that spike and drop, whether taken alone or added to tea or coffee. Raw Honey vs. Pasteurized HoneyRaw honey is not subjected to any sort of heat processing, though it is sometimes strained for a more pleasing presentation. This means that it still contains all of its natural nutrients. The best temperature for pasteurization of honey is 145 degrees Fahrenheit, according to “The Beekeeper’s Association Newsletter” at Mississippi State University. This destroys many of the nutrients in the honey the same way that cooking vegetables at high temperatures breaks down their vitamins and minerals. Adding pasteurized honey to tea or coffee will have no effect on its nutrients, because they are already destroyed. For raw honey, it depends on the temperature of the beverage.
