The new batch of plasma gauges

[Ess2]

Count me in

Definately need to be on the list for a set of these
Happy to go with majority but 'tagging' at 30 and 60 seems good idea to me.

Cheers guys,

Yeah markings at 30 and 60 would be better.

Boost gauge would be a complete unit a bit like before.


Not sure on price yet but im guessing it will be around the £120 mark again like the last set. (im only selling them as full sets as there are 50 of main ones and 5 of aux ones being made)

Can you post pics of the old setup Bo?

I didn't get my hands on a set last time due to money issues

Bo - These look nice... I would think the speedo should be tagged at 30mph (normal urban speed limit) and 60mph (national speed limit).

Any idea of cost Bo

cheers Raj

Looks stonking Bo! (stick me down for a set )

Not sure what ya mean about the deeper marking at 50 being moved to 70 though, as i cant really see it in the picture?

On the boost gauge, is that a complete gauge or just a face like these? Available seperatly i take it?

Are you still doing things like the carbon surrounds and metal rings these days as well?

Lastly any ideas yet on rough cost for them?

I know its way over due but finally some solid progress on the next batch of plasma gauges.


The designs are finally here and i would like to know your thoughts:


Main gauges, night and day




Aux gauges. night and day




My initial thought are that the deep marker at 50mph should be moved to 70mph.

Both sets of gauges will still be colour tone and brightens fadable,
The colour tone will be deep red to light orange with about 15 stages in between.
Bright to dim will also have about 15 stages like before.

Km/h is also separately fadable like the original batch of gauges and will be mostly visible during night time as the colour is quite a mild light blue/white tone which only shows up under illumination.


Im also planning a batch of matching boost gauges that plug in to the 4th output on the aux gauge transformer but that will not be done quite as quickly as these gauges.


50 of these sets are getting made but i will start a separate thread in the for sale section once i have a completion date.


Completion date is roughly 4 weeks after i give the go ahead so please post here what you think with any suggestions to the layout or what i have written above.


Thanks.
