Subject: Re: 2 high pressure ports ?

Don't know about the 2 HP ports (oh, yeah it's for the paranoids who use 2
gauges or the lunatics who make hose manifolds). But the gauge thing is you
have a certain amount of error at the low/high ends of gauges. You calibrate
for the middle range, so in theory the wider the spread between low/high the
more accurate you can make the gauge over a given range. But of course in
practice this is self-defeating because the scale gets reduced proportional
to the diameter of the gauge (analog gauge that is). So 4000-5000 is the
compromise.
