I had a feeling something wasn't right.. Found out my wildcats regulator gauge was off by 20bar. Why can't Fx get their $#&% together? Installed a Huma gauge now I'm back in business!

Thanks Redick. I will keep an eye on mine. It stays between 140-145 bar I think, hard to say, the width of the needle point anyway. I have not shot it below what appears to be that reg pressure to see where tank pressure is in relation. I also had to change out both black face FX gauges on my Impact, also off 20+bar, went with Wika and am happy with them.

Those cheap gauges are a pain. I know it's not much consolation, but since +-10bar is common, statistically speaking I would expect 5% to be off by +-20bar.

As has been said, many times before, on the forum the cheap little 23mm gauges, from anywhere, are meant to be more of indicator than a real gauge. I did not find my Huma or other brands of 23mm gauges to be much more accurate than the FX. Although most, including several FX gauges, were usually within 20bar. My Wika 28mm gauges, on the other hand, are quite a bit more accurate than any brand of the 23mm. They are much easier to read with my old eyes as well.
I would highly recommend them if you are needing better accuracy from your gauges.
