It's a plug-and-play device that costs about $225 and installs in about five minutes. It connects to a phone or tablet via Bluetooth and gives you ALL motor information, and lots more. It remembers error codes, hours of run time, and can even call your selected dealer for emergency mechanic help.
I have mine set up (you can choose many options to suit your own needs) to report fuel flow, fuel remaining, speed, engine temp, oil temp, and RPM. I now know that my boat's RPM gauge is about 200 off, as only one example of good data it presents. That helped me zero in on the right prop.
Rocky, that sounds like a good investment, where did you buy it and how does it connect to your motor? I'm not sure if my RPM gage is reading correct and I really don't want to buy a new prop until I know exactly how many RPM's my motor is turning.
