Post subject:  Air fuel Meters
Ok as everybody knows ive made myself an airfuel meter wich works better than the autometer. im gonna sell some soon. here are the spec

- 10 leds
- option switch for bar mode or dot mode
- power led (to indicate if the unit is on, but you got this one, right? :wink: )
- Knock led (ultra bright bleu, cool)
- clear installation instruction for mitsubishi, and most of other cars.

everything nicely fitted in a little abs plastic box flat black here are the dimension: 1.970 wide X 3.54 long X .94 high

will sell them for the club member 40$ can wich is around 26 usd
and regular price will be 50 cad (33 usd)
Im not doing a big profit on them considering the amount of work and the cost of all the parts required.

Im working now on a brushed aluminum face and stickers for the unit face

Let me know what you guys think about this and what else would you like to see in this little unit.

Pic will be available soon
and maybe a 20 led version as well... everything is possible.

Thanks
Olivier

Digital version 3 digits is currently under studies, would you guys prefer a digital version or a bargraph, anyways both version will be available.

the face of the unit will be clear lexan with brushed aluminum background and im trying to get a backlight for the background to work.

Hmmm, prebuilt. I like that.

Want to trade all the parts I have amassed for some credit towards a unit?

I'll give you a list if you are interested
(should be 2 driver chips, 2 voltage regs, some resistors and I think a POT)

I have a digital readout A/F gauge already, but I am looking for a graphical one to compliment it...this is perfect! Especially since I have not managed to get mine running (or even started :().

Need another chip? I'm not using mine :).

hopefully one week... im not as busy as i was at night so i have time to work on this.

im doing the autocad design of the faces tonight.
next week i will get them cut by an horizontal rotor
and then stickers

but everything inside the box is no 1. The PCB's are ready and i have all the components in stock.

what color do you guys prefer? im thinking about doing the flat black and grey like the pictures from the above post.

I think it would be neat to make a faceplate for the clock area that would hold this and maybe a small gauge

what kind of gauge are you thinking jason? 2 1/16 or something like that?
