That's the first time I have seen this, but I'm liking what I see. What's good about this product is that you can compensate for nonlinear tank shapes or sending units. That would improve the accuracy throughout the range of the gauge.

The RTE is not adjustable to correct the readings, fuel level & oil pressure are almost always out of range. None of the aftermarket fuel senders read correct

Looks interesting, at $50 the price is not too bad.
Too bad they don't include a calibration point for 1/2 full.
Looks like they set Full and Empty and interpolate all points in between.

My aftermarket, 1/2" sender from Year One works perfectly. Guess I got lucky...

Most gauges expect linear results. Even my SpeedHut is a 2point calibration, but it could be a little more accurate.

$50 seems like a fair price to me as well.

If you read the instruction sheet, it shows that you can cal it at up to 4 points.

Someone should market a similar unit that would allow the vehicle owner to modify the 0.45 volts output of a narrow band Oxygen sensor. Up to a 2 MPG gain could be achieved.
