Aeroforcetech scan gauge review

[johncal]

This is my review of the Aeroforce technology interceptor scan gauge.

I was intrigued after looking around the internet for a scan tool solution for my 2005 Wrangler. After searching around for a while, I came upon this web site REMOVED. On this site they offer custom 2 1/16” round custom gauges that I have found to be simply amazing.

This gauge simply plugs directly into the OBD2 port under the dash of the jeep and can read back in real time over 25 different parameters of your engine that are scanned through the OBD2 port. This means you can have instant access to all available functions such as Ambient air temperature, real time horsepower figures, instant gas mileage numbers on the fly along with other things such as battery voltage, map, maf sensor readings and the list goes on and on……. I would suggest you check out the web site to see just how cool this gauge is.

Another great tool is that is actually IS a SCAN TOOL as well. I found it much easier to read than trying to get the info off of the odometer, plus you can re-set the service engine light without having to disconnect the battery.

I’m telling you I love this thing. It is VERY cool to have instant access to any information that the vehicles computer has and all for an affordable price. The gauge can be set up to display any 2 different parameters at a time, or can be set up to scroll through a total of 8 different parameters at programmable intervals. Also, it has a really neat ANNUNCIATOR feature which means you can make 2 high intensity LED’s on the gauge light if you go over or under a certain value that you set up for any of the available parameters. For example, I set up the RPM parameter and then set it up to turn on the LED’s any time I went past 4500 RPM. You could also set it up to light the LED’s if you went over let’s say 250 degrees in engine temperature, or under so many volts (but you are limited to only setting up one parameter per gauge)……..hmmm “per gauge”.

You can also (if your budget permits) add additional gauges to display more information at once and set up the annunciation on each gauge for different functions. If you want to get one for yourself contact Todd at: REMOVED or look on the web site above.

I helped Todd develop this for Jeeps since there were none available for Jeeps before this. Unlike you i did a little more than critisize, I tried to help other Jeeprs with something I thought was a good useful tool.

somehow, the popcorn seems appropriate!

FYI I don't make one cent off of this. Like I said, I thought it was a great product and it would be nice if it could be adapted for Jeep use. I really hope the sales guy for the company doesn't read this thread because it's embarassing. I was trying to help both him and fellow Jeepers.

Is this normally the way you talk to people that are trying to help? WOW!

[Code3TJ]

What I find suspicious is that your very first post here sounds very much like a sales pitch. Then you mention that you helped design it. Is this a review or an advertisement? It still smacks of a sales pitch to me. That's fine and dandy that you're not making a cent off of it, but that's not how commerce typically is conducted. Sorry if you took offense to my question, but I stand by my earlier statement.

Wow, I'm shocked that you are moderators and treat new board members this way. You're right, this is my first post and I'm shocked this would be trhe reception I would get as a new member. Why exactly do I need to provide "evidence" of my installation.

When I wave to a Jeeper, I assume he's a real Jeeper and not just a poser driving a Jeep. I might be wrong, But at least I don't throw them on the hood looking for "Evidence".

I signed onto this board in friendship, but it would seem you guys will keep defending your baseless mistrust. guess what I'm saying here is that I sign on to the board and my honesty is called into question. That's just plain wrong.

Why don't you guys just try looking on the site and check it out. I need to "prove" absolutely nothing to anyone here. This is also the last thing I am saying regarding this post. I won't get drawn into anything further defending my honesty.

[Code3TJ]

You're shocked that this is how you're treated? Grow up. You've been asked several times if this is a sales pitch or a real review. Since you've ignored that question, I think that makes it pretty clear what this is. You've been asked several very legitimate questions about the installation and instead of answering them, you start crying that you're being asked. I'll make it very easy for you to understand:

This appears to be a sales pitch and I do not believe that you've really installed this product in your jeep.

Any questions?

I've done you a favor and removed the links since as I've mentioned, I don't pay for others' advertising.

When put that way, I have no problem responding.

Sice, I'm not using it for "on the fly" readings, I put mine in the bottom on the center console where the cigarette ashtray might go.

As I said, just plug it into the OBD2 port. That's it
