Huma gauge problems?

[Pneumanaut]

Recently purchased two identical Huma manometers (28mm) from a reliable dealer. The first one leaked air around the case/lens and the second one hangs up at 150 bar. I can get the "hanger" to read true most of the time by flicking the side of the housing. Not something that should have to be done!

Anyone else find problems with their Huma gauges lately?

YES ... there appears to be a bad run of 350 bar gauges. ( maybe others ? )

contact HuMa directly via E-mail & they should take care of this issue

Will do that. Have not seen any intel on that problem. I thought it was just my old "family curse" again!

 Ordered 2 of the gauges from Huma for my fx crown.

Was contacted by Huub at Huma that some of the 350 bar gauges were defective.

Was told to destroy the gauges and then send a photo. 

Which I did and was issued a refund.
