Javalina question

Is there an issue with the readings of the Javalina system? Mine is still working and seeing all the praises of the see level wonder if mine is giving bad readings. I know it seems to be reading correctly but just curious.

I suspect the issue that is moving folks towards SeeLevel is that

1)  The Javalina tank sensors are essentially proprietary

2)  Theoretically the system requires a slightly involved recalibration procedure if you replace even one sensor

3)  Javalina absolutely, positively does not support any RV product and will practically hang up on you if you call to ask about it and mention "Foretravel" (been there)

Thanks for the info.
 When any part of it fails I will replace the system. Too bad as it reads voltage, direction and levels. Really don't need a compass but it will take two different monitoring systems, voltage and tank level to replace it.
