Podmods, Maintenance, Tips and Tricks : Partially filling fresh water

Does anyone have a way to accurately measure how much water you're putting in (when you don't intend to fill completely)?   When I head out on an adventure I try to put in just enough water (say 10/12 gals) to allow me to stay overnight at a Walmart but save the towing weight of a full tank.  I have tried pouring water in a gal at a time - messy and very time consuming.  Lately I have timed how long it takes me to fill a 5 gal container and run the water that long (or twice for 10 gal etc.) using my hose and water tank filler attachment (a great invention BTW).  Works OK but takes a little extra time and wastes some water.

I see on Amazon that I can purchase a farm funnel that I could attach the tank filler attachment which would allow me to pour in maybe more than a gallon at a time(?).  I also see a couple of inexpensive water flow instruments that attach to the hose to measure the flow going through in gallons.

Any experience out there with either of these?  Suggestion/ideas are welcome.
