  It’s the most accurate way to measure fuel in a tank. Pressure gauges are much less useful.

  They usually come with a tare (empty) weight stamped on them. Total weight minus the weight = gas weight

  It doesn’t need to be super accurate, just enough to tell them if they’ll need to get a new one soon or not. They could probably just pick it up and guess, but at least this gives them a number to track.

  My grill literally has a gauge that works off the weight of the tank. I think it’s prolly accurate enough. Propane tanks are mass produced to fairly rigorous specs, as they have to contain pressure for safety.
