LittleBlueGT Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 This is amazing. I am in for it if it will do AFR. Any chance of integrating it with a PLX WB?

fishbone Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I if I am in 4th gear and I am revving less than 2000 rpm; indicator would be GEAR DOWN...but if I am in 4th and revving 3000 rpm it would display GEAR UP ? Look man, if you can't drive stick for shit and need lights, just do what I did, buy an autotragic Just giving you a hard time Your idea is a good one but I think the positioning of this gadget might be problematic.

lossol Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 Did you say OLED screens, or did I imagine it? Any chance we could get customizable startup screens? I'd like one that blinks "Wait To Start" until the needle sweep is done! Yup OLED - like this one. what about building in it a programmable shift light functionality Maybe someday as an add-on, or part of an expansion of features. But right now I'm focusing on AFR via LC-1 or PLX (thanks LittleBlueGT - good idea). Adding AFR only requires sampling a 0-5 Volt signal. Any chance of integrating it with a PLX WB? I think the chances are as good as getting it to work with the LC-1. Looks like both companies document the output specifications clearly. Great idea. Volt meter possible? Yup - good idea, let me add that capability.

hadvw Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'd like one that blinks "Wait To Start" until the needle sweep is done! How about "Powering up Flux Capacitor" that changes to "Ready." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow05gtRI Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 How about "Powering up Flux Capacitor" that changes to "Ready." i gotta check if the AEM UEGO WBO2 uses the same type of signal as LC-1 and PLX... that list of features looks awesome. i really cannot wait. wanted a boost gauge for some time but i use my cubby and dont want the a-pillar....

BAC5.2 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'd be happy with changing to "Ready" after the needle sweep is done. Any way to make that display user-configurable?

lossol Posted January 22, 2010 Author Share Posted January 22, 2010 Got the new OLED screens in. Looks like they fit good in the model. Here is a mock up. They are small but should have excellent contrast. VBG1 gauges available at www.gtboostgauge.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Looks pretty good! What color will the screen/LED display? Red?

lossol Posted January 22, 2010 Author Share Posted January 22, 2010 They displays are actually white. This should be a good contrast with the red leds for boost and also match the combi meter.http://www.crystalfontz.com/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?id=1396&w=200(pictures not 1:1)http://driventodrive.com/images-vehicles/2007SubaruLegacy/SI-DRIVE_04_small.jpg VBG1 gauges available at www.gtboostgauge.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuked_oasys Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 OLED display and red LED boost lights? You are my hero! I'm curious about ballpark pricing as well. Although to be honest, this looks so good I'll pay pretty much anything as long as its not an arm and a leg. I need those for driving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lossol Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Update: The first prototype for this new style is off to the board house. And they should have it turned around and back to me early next week. Until then I'm acquiring all the parts to build the prototype. That should give me a good idea of where we will be on pricing. So I don't have a number yet, but soon. Any ideas on the startup animation? I'm trying to match something similar to the LGT gauge cluster. MAy be a couple different options that are user selectable. I mean wht not really. idontknow posted gauge sweeps for two model years earlier in this post (thanks). With some differences noted, maybe this is anoher good reason it should be user configurable. With two small OLED screens, I should be able to make an easy (user friendly) menu system. Thanks for convicing me to go back to the curved leds. I think you guys are right, it looks a little better. Also there are 27 Leds on the board, (25 for bar graph, 2 for backlit capactivie touch buttons, and 1 shared for buttons and grapch) Anyway, with so many damn leds it gives a lot of flexibility for display options.
