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:

 

Looks dubious, me likely.

 

its upside down

 

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

 

lol that was a joke about the suction cup slots. the gps receiver gives 0 *****.

 

FTFY

 

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!

 

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)



Pretty lights:



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

 

lol

but really, im not

 

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

Now we can finally datalog our dentsides massive acceleration!

 

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.
