Make me some moneys!

Hello!

I have decided to start my own business, because employment agencies suck, and there is no interesting work out there at the moment.

I'm hoping to survive on doing pretty much anything and everything mechanical and electronics related that people might need.
I'm expecting a fair bit of work to be fixing engine problems, so I've called myself "The Engine Whisperer"

Website is here: www.enginewhisperer.com

How much did the power meter cost you, and can it download to computer?

I had a brief look on their website and I don't think it can, but you actually have one so...

it's not mine, I just installed it for someone.

I don't think it has a PC interface. It's pretty basic really, but if the calibration is done well it'd be pretty accurate.

Ah, ok. Well looks like I'll just have to hack one from an accelerometer. Wink

you'd be amazed how hard it is to get someone to pay for a fast car!
They all think they can do it better for less money Razz


For a simple accelerometer performance measurement device, look up g-tech Smile

You can usually buy them really cheap these days.
