On that note, if your gauge offers a metric option, set it in metric. It will read in tenths of a meter, and a tenth of a meter is 4 inches, so it will change much faster than it will if it's registering in feet. (Learned that during Cave 1!)
That's one of the things I like about my Nitek Q. It gives me feet with the handy dandy decimal point. Tenths of afoot is very nice. I can see as I move inches and adjust from there.
