Gauges

[DCVIN]

I found these on ebay... I like the look and the colour will match the turbo dash.. can anyone tell me if these are any good? or should I stick with apexi or something like that?

They look alright man and for 50 bucks I dont reakon you can go wrongb

I reckon it looks pretty nice.. worth 50 bucks easy

my mate got a second hand autometre one for about 80 bucks, so I reckon this is a bargain.

The price sounds good but by the description it says,

"7 different colour leds that change at the push of a button."

These I guess are the 7 things around the rim of the gauge.

This looks a bit tacky I think. I wouldn't want leds which could be quite bright glowing, and it's a gimmick 7 different colours.

Sorry to be negative but I think all views are required and that's why we ask in the forum.

that's exactly why I asked.. wanted to know what people think.. I was thinking the same! plus the actual add looks like a gimmik. Just thought someone might have one or known somone who brought one.

Thanks for the feedback!

I think the gauge looks good in the picture - but agree that the brightness could be annoying.

The other thing is there seem to be a lot of mistakes in the add - kind of makes you wonder if you will get your product delivered. They havnt sold lots under that ID.

I'm no electrician, but I thought you could change the colour of a LED by voltage that's why they're so popular?

if that's the case, wouldn't it just be a few LED's changing colour together?

the quality of the pic is rubbish but I wouldnt buy n e other brand.

they just look to good in real life

Std LED's are only one colour

there are leds with 3 colours bilt in one unit (4 tag ends) 2 colour (3 tag ends)

then you have coulor changing type dont know how they work.
