They can go wrong and under-read, had a couple of cars that boiled over through the cap but still read well under on both the guage and the digital readout

Yes, it can go wrong but you can only go by what the dials/digital readout tells you.
I used it for the simple reason that even with the top hose thermostat mod, the dial still only reads up to the quarter mark. Having the heating on clearly tells me the temperature is getting to where it should be, so I wanted to know if it’s a faulty sender or dial gauge. I got my answer that it is indeed the gauge that it faulty and I’m happy knowing that the temperature sender is working.
