Simple Voltage Indicator (especially if you have either Triumph Fog or Warm Grips)

[barbagris]

I've had a few of these for a while





Finally got round to fitting one to the R3 - using that vacant hole in the Triumph accessory switch block.

It rolls through the 3 colours when it detects voltage.

Then (here) it goes amber (OK not charging) before the engine is started. Flashing red (low volts) when the starter is fired up (and this was a recently run and still warm/hot engine)- then to green when it's charging. I asked them to switch off the LED after a few seconds on green. I've used other LED voltage indicators (i.e. Kuryakyn) in the past and the constant blinking drove me potty.

May help somebody.

It's a small rev counter (from KOSO) that is fed by an Aussie Hummingbird-electronics GPS speed sensor calibrated so that it reads off in km/h.

It gives me a 100% accurate speedometer. But more importantly it's visible at night. I simply cannot see my OEM Speedo/Revcounter needles at night.
