You can get a hydrometer for that range in the car parts store.
Simply get the meter for battery acid.
They sell the classic floating hydrometer variety (with hydrometer
pipette) for a whopping eur1 or so.
There's also the "rotating indicator" version, but it is much less
accurate.

The resolution isn't as good as with a lab meter, but it's plenty for CuCl.

Since i use H2O2 i don't really use is though...
