The Ultimate Gauge Board is currently designed to accept 5V input and daisy chaining, so if you’d like to connect it directly to a car battery or power source, you’ll need to reduce the voltage and protect the circuit.
This 14V Power Protection Board is designed as a clip on extension to the Ultimate Gauge Board, and can be used on each board individually, or just before your daisy chain in order to protect and power up to three boards at once.
As of launch day, this add-on is still being designed and finalised, but it will be ready when the first round of boards are shipped.
In 2023 I designed my first automotive product, a 52mm pod gauge for my Bugeye Impreza WRX - and it got so much love from the Impreza community I did a small run and made them available for order.
Well, it’s been two years, and I’ve been asked so many times over that period if I’d do a second batch, so they’re back with another limited second run.
These pods are designed to house three 52mm gauges, and sit in the space in your dash where the clock goes. The pods are molded in high quality ABS, and textured and painted to accurately recreate the look and feel of the OEM dash.
How quickly these end up in your hands will depend on how quickly orders come in, but based on the previous order I’d hope to have them with you by September at the latest.
The first run of these pods sold out very quickly, so if you want to get hold of one, I wouldn’t delay. I don’t think there will be another run of these once they’re gone - or if there is it’ll be another two years!
