Gift Exchange

We had the family gift exchange. I got a new rear hatch spoiler and he got version 2 of my custom tachometer. Somewhere in LA tonight there is a little black hatch with a grinning driver. Upgrades were the clear 12,000 mcd + LEDs in green, yellow, and red plus a dimmer knob so they don't ruin your night vision.





The clock says 2:30 PM mountain time, 3:30 PM in Mesa, AZ and the leds are clearly visible against an overcast sky. Version 3 of this tachometer will be cheaper and include a DRO as well as bar-graph display. The BS2 rocked. The Propeller ROCKS! Parallax.com

I sent the plans to GadgetGanster.com so Nick could sell the DIY kits but the BS2 processor cost too much so I'm redesigning it on the Propeller platform with a DRO too. When I have the proto up and running I will be posting pics and links. When the kit is out the software will be a free download.
Thanks,
