Ultraguage

In another thread, Yaktop suggested a scanguage for fuel monitoring. I looked into it and didn't care for the display so did some research, and found ultraguage. It is everything my Vegas was missing for vehicle monitoring!

It has a better screen that can show many parameters but for me the most important is the first one set up to show, instant fuel economy, average fuel economy. Fuel left, time to empty, and the most important, miles to empty.

You can set up other pages to display things like oil life etc, and many I haven't discovered. I have only begun to play with it.
It is seriously plug and play. Works as soon as you plug it in. Total installation including mounting too about 10 minutes.
Love it.

We use the ODBSCAN TOOL that connects by BLUETOOTH and use an Android tablet. This allows you to design the screen basically how ever you want...

And you have a tablet to run other apps on!

Pictures of my customized Guage screen and a screen shot of the mapping program included with torque.
I have five other custom Torque guage and map screens that are just a finger swipe away.

Never said they were new. I was not aware of them and thought the info might benefit others

I am using ultragauge with a 6" tablet.
Traveling thru US and Canada these gauges are pretty handy. Still can't convert liters and kph very easily in my head. Most Canadian fuel pumps require prepay so you need to know about how many liters you will need so you don't over estimate. Charge stays on your credit card until they submit info to the CC company. Usually about a week.
Have uploaded 3 of these screens to the ultragauge web site for free download.
You may notice I have settled on a white background with black gauge detail. Seems to be the most readable on sunny bright days. Should be handy for Canadian snowbirds coming our way in the winter.
