Does anyone have a recommendation on inclinometers?

As title says, does anyone have an inclinometer that they recommend?

I've been doing some research on this topic as I have found myself on trails recently where this started to be a concern, especially when roll threat means going off the side of a mountain ridge trail and death is likely. I've already felt the 'pucker factor' a few times but I have no idea if it was just a first timers thing, or actually warranted.

I understand all Jeeps/vehicles will be different since lifts, tires, bumpers, racks, skids, and load all change it's center of gravity, but there's an old thread on the wrangler forum here where there is some discussion on the topic of roll approaches.

Thanks in advance-

I have your same question. And posted below in another forum.

Searched and found a very old thread that really did not answer which inclinometer to run. I have looked at the Sun Company http://www.suncompany.net/#!boating-...products/c1ygh products 201-F and 2011-I, which for simplicity look good. TeraFlex has technically advanced design https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbVAI16fHcw, but it looks like over kill and not very intuitive to monitor. Many more are online including SmittyBilt.

I had an incident that causes me to want to install a meter to judge my roll angles. Pitch would be nice.

Anyone with experience have advice? Leaning to the simple Sun Co. 2011-I

I don't have that. But there are several free apps that do the same thing. Jut put your device in its holder and set to level and it works fine. No need to spend that money imo.
