CanChecked Gauge users?

[shifted.m3]

Looking to try the CanChacked vent gauge. Anyone on here that runs the Canchecked gauge? And whats the best place to source one in Europe / Scandinavia?

Thanks

Yup, i've got one, but not spent much time configuring yet.

Looks sweet! Yeah feel like there might be too much configuration available haha. Do you feel like it's responsive, reliable and easy to actually use?

Thinking of the small things like is the display stuttery? Or does it blind you in tunnels etc? Interesed in hearing real world scenarios

It dims when the headlights are on, so no blinding. There is no stutter.

Old thread. I have one installed now. Started playing around with custom displays. Not having much luck with data logging after only one attempt. I will keep trying.

Not tried data logging, so can't comment i'm afraid.

Customized all Pages and intro animation...not played with logging.
Since lil-to-no documentation on topic, suggest submit a Support Ticket.
Support team pretty responsive to help sort 'how-to' and/or troubleshoot.

I wish they'd fix the DCT temperature reading!!

Their group on facebook is where it's really active and support comes directly from the company / owner. He's German so expect a bit of rough and tumble.

It's a very capable gauge, extremely high resolution (response times) and allows for 3rd party sensor integration. Software is clunky but there are a few youtube videos to show you around.

All in all, I like mine and need to spend more time customizing it. Logging is good, it will log the guages on the currently selected display but pulling said logs is super clunky. Unfortunately it does not attach as a mass storage device, you have to use their software (Mac or Windows) to pull the files off of it so if they are large, it can take forever which is inconvenient while in the car. In fact a removable SD card from the front would be even better (it's in an inconvienent spot).

Notable FYI...
Beta FW & SW is available for e92. Last checked, beta not directly on their site DL page.
Discovered during Support correspondence. Been running beta since installed circa Mar`26. Took a few back-n-forth with Support to remedy some widget bugs which ultimately was resolved. Once sorted, beta performance solid.
If anyone is interested, can forward link to CanChecked Beta Customershare site.
