spirit hydrometer accuracy ?

[ninja_geezer]

I have 2 spirit hydrometers,one made by still spirits (made in china)
the other a Stevenson reeves (made in scotland) the later reads higher than the other ,ie, if the still spirits one reads 40% the stevenson reeves reads 43% and in higher numbers the gap is greater.how do i know which is the most accurate.

Not wishing to wave a flag here.
Stevenson Reeves: This is what they do, have built a tradeable name around.

I know which one I would trust.

[Curmudgeon]

Without offense to the Chinese who make many cheap things that I use most cheerfully, in this case I would choose the Scot's version as 1% below weights and measures would get the landlord lynched.

Old Chinese proverb:
Man walking through airport doorway sideways, going to Bangkok.

Enough silliness.
Buy the best quality that you can afford, and learn it's limitations.
