hmmm imo shall be ok... cause reading different from hydrometer gauges to gauges you use ...

btw which type of hydrometer are you using ?

[blueheaven]

Use a refractometer

It has temperature compensation and is more accurate

Remember to calibrate it with pure distilled water

Looks quite OK for a plenum except that I cannot see whether you have the eggcrate at the bottom or not.

Need some time for it to mature and we see the result
