#114922 - I would imagine that designing something
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The problem tends to be these gauges are truly, truly awful and show empty from about 1/2 full,

I said
If a gas gauge is correct when close to empty

The point I'm trying to make is that if your design gives a fairly accurate reading between 1/4 and 0 the rest can be +-10% with no harm.

I would imagine that designing something that is reasonably precise in the "lower curve" and is allowed to be imprecise in the "upper curve" would be a lot easier than trying to match both "curves"
