Those cheaply made flow meters are for the birds. I bought medical
grade panel-mount flow meters for my Sinus (experimental) at 2/3 the
cost and they're far superior in materials and quality. If you don't
have panel space to mount one, you could lay it in your lap just like
the other one, though it's a bit more substantial. Here's a link to an
example:

public service announcement... this:

so far, appears less likely to fall apart in normal use vs the right angle flow controls

still being sold at popular soaring supply houses. The right angle jobs seem to last about three wave camps. Mine broke on the ground, others have been less fortunate. The plastic flowmeter housing generally breaks just above the needle valve.
