RE: solution to poor clock display - Chuckk_imp - 10-23-2019

all of my AC is converted to DC as it leaves my alternator.. that beeper really works well.. I never forget to turn off my directionals.. when I am stopped at a light or something, by applying ether brake, it shuts off the beeper but the directional is still working.. then when I take off from a stop light and release the brakes, the beeper will start up, reminding me to shut the directionals off.. this way I am not bothered by the beep-beep-beep while sitting at the light.. pretty cool..

here is a pic of my latest gizmo.. my altimeter !! .. I haven't tried using it on the fly yet, but I will ..the app also has a map feature I want to check out, showing roads close to my present location.. "like a kid in a sandbox" .. haha ..

RE Altimeter: Does the app use a built in sensor, or some look-up topography data in the cloud?

I believe the altimeter uses GPS .. it says as it loads, for the most accurate reading use under a clear blue sky.. I think if I remember it uses 3 satellites ..

chuck ..
. P.S.... it is a free app without adds ..

I wanted digital, but must settle for analog.. I had planned on using this stick-on with a handle bar mount, but found it is smaller than the analog ones.. the stick-on is about 1inch in diameter and the analogs are about 1 1/4 inches..

Chuckk, when looking for some parts for my winter project, I found this ebay link:

that is interesting Peter, but now that I have my LED clock the display has become more of a secondary source for the time.. as for the rest of the display, it doesn't give me too much grief.. thanks for thinking of me !! ..

Those are on Amazon too. Not one listed for my ‘13 model though.
