Exactly, as soon as I get a few more expenses out of the way to get the car back on the road I'll order the bits that you're using and mess around a bit.

Oh yeah, it definitely works with a computer over BT, that's how I program them.

PS I'm interested in the group buy but I don't want to wait. I want one next week...if it will wok with a nexus 7 and race chrono that is...

:-)

I wish, its Taiwan thats holding me up. Its supposed to get here Friday, but I conveniently leave for Canada that day. I need to test the new chip, and then decide if I am going to add battery backup. Everything else is in place.

Suction cup face done:

Did some more research and talked to my boss and it doesn't really matter which direction its in.

i was going to do that, just too lazy, i will prop you for it for your efforts

Suction cup slots are being changed so that they face each other, that way it wont have a way to pull out. (these pictures don't show it)

Took it out for some testing:


Also got the new chip in. It saves the settings just like I hoped it would. I just need to put it through some tests and then we will be good to go.

Exciting news! :party:

The new chip is working great. Here you can see the first one I put together for someone (you might be able to guess who)

I'll start a group buy tomorrow when I have some free time.

lol

but really, im not

:rly: I'll have to keep an eye out then. Will there be a limited number?

Now we can finally datalog our dentsides massive acceleration! :laugh:

At first. Mostly because I don't have unlimited time with school and rowing and whatnot. If they are actually popular then they will keep being made.
