Amazon.com Product Description
Reduce your water consumption while also determining the rainfall for a given period with the Timex TX7002 rain gauge/sprinkler gauge combo. The package starts with a single 5-inch rain gauge, which lets you calculate the average rainfall during a single shower, a day, a week, or any other interval. It's ideal for amateur meteorologists, gardeners, and other people with a vested interest in precipitation levels. Rounding out the bundle is a 1-inch sprinkler gauge that tells you just how much water you're pumping into your garden or lawn. The sprinkler gauge is a must for people who don't want to waste water but do want to make sure their plants are well hydrated. Both items are made of molded yellow transparent plastic for durability, and feature easy-to-read numerals printed on the side with ultraviolet fade-resistant inks. And metric users needn't fret, as the gauges feature both inch and centimeter scales. The gauges, which are designed to stick in the ground or mount on a fence post, are backed by a two-year warranty.

Summary: Too Fragile 2008-08-22
Comment: I purchased 5 of these sets to get enough 1" gauges to evaluate my lawn irrigation system. It would have been nice to be able to buy them alone instead of having to buy an equal number of 5" units. This is especially true for those of us in SoCal where everything green is on life support!
The 1" gauges are so fragile that it was all but impossible to insert them deep enough to get a valid measurement. Contact one pebble on the way in and the brittle 02 thin plastic cracks. 2 more were almost immediately demolished by my small dog tripping over them.
I guess that I can give the superfluous 5" gauges as stocking stuffers this Xmas to my friends who live where it actually rains. They can be post mounted and might survive for awhile.
So if you live somewhere where you have 3" of totally rock free friable topsoil, you might find the little guys useful!

Summary: Did it rain last night? 2008-06-11
Comment: If you want a device that will give you a ballpark estimate of rainfall, this fits the bill. I doubt it is 100% scientifically accurate, but the price is right!

Summary: Combination Rain Guages 2007-06-09
Comment: The 5-inch guage appears to work well and is accurate. The 1-inch sprinkler guage appears to fill up with the minimum of water.
