Digital tach group buy is now closed.

 

Tachs have been shipped to members that ordered them on Monday, February 8, 2010.

================================================================

 

I received the digital tach today that I had ordered from an ebay vendor.

 

He sells these tachs in an auction style format and they vary widely in price.

 

Prices for the last 6 on Ebay incl. First Class shipping were $21.19, $19.19, $17.69, $19.19, $34.69, $20.00

 

These tachs would be very useful when doing carb synching and adjusting the pilot air screws.

 

He will sell me a bulk order of 20 or more for a fixed cost of $14.50 including shipping to me.

 

The tach is 2" x 1 3/4" x 3/4"

 

Mounting tab holes are 2 1/2" apart, 2 7/8" wide at tabs.

 

Display digits are 3/8" tall.

 

Over cable length is 66". There is about 12" of dual lead cable. One for spark plug sensor & one for ground.

 

The tach can be set to read RPM's once every revolution, once every other revolution or twice per revolution.

 

RPM display updates every second. Readout is to 99,999.

 

First picture below shows how I received unit out of package. Last picture shows tach attached to my Dodge Ram. Bike is not even close to running at this point. Also tried on lawn mower and it worked great. All you have to do is coil black lead at end of cable around spark plug wire two or three times. It doesn't even have to be grounded to read RPM's.

 

Prices below include shipping costs.

 

(Qty 1) First class for 17.50 to U.S.

 

(Qty 2) First class for 32.50 to U.S.

 

(Qty 1) 2-3 day priority for 20.00 to U.S.

 

(Qty 2) 2-3 day priority for 34.50 to U.S.

 

(Qty 1) First class for 18.50 to Canada.

 

(Qty 2) First class for 33.50 to Canada.

 

(Qty 1) 6-10 day priority for 26.00 to Canada.

 

(Qty 2) 6-10 day priority for 40.50 to Canada.

 

I can get two units in first class mailer and 4 units in small priority box.

 

I would recommend priority mailing. The packaging will be better, I can use USPS supplied box. And it is much quicker and I can get a USPS tracking number. I have recently seen first class mail take almost two weeks transit time.

 

U.S. shipping is to lower 48 states.

 

If you want one or more of these please respond to this thread, or you can PM me.

I'm in for 1. Let me know when and where to send the $$ :thumbsup2:

 

By the way, have you checked it for accuracy against another tachometer. ie. on an automobile with a tach? (just out of curiosity)

 

Thanks a lot for doing this :)

My Ram has an analog gauge, not digital. Similar to first gens. It did match close as I could tell.

Hey dingy,

You can put me down for one. I've been wanting to get a tach for some time. Just let me know if you get 20 buyers. I'll ask around at work and may get a couple more if anyone else needs one.

 

Thanks for going to the trouble to do this!

Gary,

 

Does this have a pick up for the plug wire or is it necessary to connect it at the coil?

 

Thanks,

Carl

 

There are two leads coming out of cable.

 

One has eyelet connector, ground connection if you were going to permanently mount it to run hour meter. Ground wire does not need to be connected to read RPM's.

 

The picture at top of thread that shows it in my Dodge only had the spark plug wire connected. Also worked fine on lawn mower without ground hooked up.

 

Other is about 20 gauge insulated wire. This one you wrap around spark plug wire a couple of times to read RPM's.

 

These two wires join about a foot from end of 66" overall length cable that comes out of tach. I added a picture to my first post showing this better.
