The question I have, Is the water safe to drink from the meter?

I'm going to put one on my main at home and challenge the water company!
Really though filling the black tank for multiple gravity dumps when you are by yourself has some merrit but just some.

No, it's not.
Unless you are one of those that will only drink bottled water, it is certainly as safe to drink water that has gone through it as it is to drink the water that has gone through pipes, water pressure regulator, hoses, and if using your tank, sat in a tank for a few days, then gone through your pump, etc. It is no more dangerous than your water pump, in fact the principle is the same. A water pump uses a motor to spin an impeller to propel water. This device uses the motion of the water to spin an impeller that turns a gear to register volume.
My 2 cents, your mileage may vary...

Hose thread. The original purpose of these devices was for gardening...that is actually when I got my first one; eons ago when we did more gardening and less traveling. Now we do more traveling (retired now) than gardening and I moved it from my gardening tools to my RV tools and then had to buy another for my gardening... I couldn't keep track of where it was and though we aren't around long enough to grow all of our vegetables since we retired, we still have lots of berries and a nut tree orchard (Walnuts, Pecans, Heartnuts, Hicans and Hazelnuts) that we tend to when we aren't on the road.
Thanks for posting this handy gadget, it doesn’t matter how anyone travels, this is a cool tool. It will be interesting to see the actual amount the different tanks hold, just for experimental reasons.
ah looks like another tool ill have to get.just to keep up hahahaha
