ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an improved rain gage based on the old method of the hydraulic water wheel used for power, for centuries, except this is a small precision made water wheel that moves constantly during rainfall in a variation of movement of light to heavy rainfall. The shaft of the water wheel drives three dials of 0 to 1, 1 to 10, 10 to 100 inches, using a knocker system without resetting the dials.
