I have had this rain gauge for several years. I love it, but I need to get a new insert, and I cannot find one.

I can see the numbers!
This is better than expected. It is solid. It has a good-looking design. It works!! The floating concept is new to me and it works. My biggest concern in finding a rain gauge is that it have LARGE readable numbers from a distance. Gauges nailed to the railing of the deck close to the door are unreadable so this one although further away in the flower bed is still readable! Thank you.

Does the fascinating information about the discovery of the pluviometer come with the product? My son-in-law will love the science behind this!
Verified reply from Allison
The gauge arrives with this info on a card! 'What's so cool about the World's Coolest Rain Gauge? Science, that's what! It's based on the Archimedean principle of water displacement. Water flows into the outer sleeve and the blue tube floats up.'

If water is left in the gauge, will the plastic withstand freezing temperatures without cracking?
Verified reply from Amy
Hello! The inner measurement tube is polycarbonate, the same material from which they make motorcycle windshields — it’s very tough! And the copper part withstands freezing temps too!

Will the copper tarnish/turn or is it coated?
Verified reply from Jen
The copper is not coated, but occasional gentle cleaning will keep the patina at bay. You can clean the tube and flute with warm soapy water and a bottle brush. Do not use lubricants or abrasives.
