A vertical series of electrical heat sensors adhered to the outer surface of a water heater tank. The sensors are electrically connected to a corresponding vertical series of display lights in reverse order. Heated water fills the tank from the top down. The sensors are activated from the top down based on the amount of hot water in the tank. The lights are correspondingly activated from the bottom up, showing the tank "filling-up" with hot water. The lights can be labeled such as "Full", "Half Full", etc. The sensors can be provided in sequence on a rod with magnets. Thus, the rod can be quickly attached to the tank, holding the sensors in a vertical line in the correct order. Displays can be remote from the tank via wiring or radio signaling, allowing them to be mounted in each bathroom or elsewhere.
