by Linear Logic for a couple of years now and want to share what a great product it is.1. Its a scan tool.
2. Its a collection of gauges.
3. Its a Trip Computer.
The Scangauge plugs into your vehicles OBD-II port (On-Board-Diagnostics-2 port.) This the interface to your vehicles computer. Its on all vehicles made after 1996. This devices is able to do many things.
As a scan tool it can tell you the error codes to diagnose vehicle problems. Basically, it tells you why the check engine light came on. It also has the ability to clear out the codes (turn off the cel). once you have fixed the problem.
As a collection of gauges it can give the user feed back on a host of different parameters up to 4 at once. a few include GPH (Gallons Per Hour), MPG (Miles Per Gallon), Coolant Temp, Engine RPM, Speed, and several others. While this device does not directly improve fuel economy, having the feedback on GPH and MPG will help monitor your behaviors that can improve your fuel economy. as they say "Knowlege is Power."
As a Trip Computer it provides data on such things like MPG average for a trip, day, current. It also provides max readings for temperature, RPM and speed.
The scangauge is quite small and easily readable with customizable backlight to match your vehicle's lighting scheme. Its also very easy to take from vehicle to vehicle if you have more than one (as long as it was made after 1996. Double check documentation for vehicle specifics.)
You can mount it just about anywhere where you can still easily see it. I choose to mount it directly in front of me on the steering column.
