Accuracy : +/- 10%, not sure if that includes calibration vs flow rate.

2-8 amps is a bit much, but you can hook it straight to 12v.

looks turbine based. Someone needs to hook this up and count pulses and do some more calibration points.

say idle is 1.2L/hr, that is about 1 pulse per second.

edit: oops, just realized 1.2 is out of range :/ I did something wrong. Fixed , not 0.052 but 0.52 gal/hr on the low end.
