Black/Grey capacity

I have a 2016 19RD with elite package so 80 gallons of fresh water. I have the grey and black sensors but was wondering if anyone can tell me what the capacities of those tanks are? Not convinced yet that I can fully trust the sensors.

TIA,

David

And no, you can't trust the sensors.

X2!

The panel shows .666 on the black tank after the first toilet flush.

The fresh water is generally, reasonably close and the grey is an educated guess at best.

Yep, the sensors lie. I had a 19RD, the best way to check the black was to turn off the water, lift the toilet seat, step on the flush petal, and you are looking right down into the tank. Just aim a flashlight down to see the BW level. It helps to drop some water or spit to break the surface.
