Auto enthusiasts have longed for a miles per gallon meter which is easily
attached to any vehicle and inexpensive. Well, long no further, it's here.
The Kohler Miles Per Gallon Meter displays actual miles per gallon being
consumed when the vehicle is driven. The meter may indicate 5-10 mpg when
lugged going up hill, or 55-65 mpg coasting down that same hill. All that's needed
is for the vehicle to move in drive.
You say that you don't have a car? Not to worry. This device works equally on
a SUV, bus, truck,motorcycle, scooter, and even an ultralight airplane! And, it
doesn't care if you use gasoline, diesel fuel, or ethanol.
Best of all is the cost, less than .00 ! This is the direct result of simplicity.
Neither the front sensor nor the rear sensor connect to anything under the hood or
dashboard. They do connect to a windshield display in a 'heads up' style.
"Business as usual" engineering would not produce a universal, fits all vehicles,
miles per gsallon meter. This type instrumentation is only offered when built in at
the factory. For luxury vehicles. Can you imagine a DIY customer attempting to
place all the usual sensors into the fuel rail, or carburetor , and transmission? Might
a fire or explosion result. You bet!
Interestingly, designers are becoming aware that many complex quantities can be
measured without being touched. A good example is the BRITA ULTRAMAX
water filter replacement indicator LED. This element indicates when to replace the
old filter with a new one, without the need to touch the old filter, or sample the filter-
ed water. Fascinating thinking outside the box!
That same sort of thinking resulted in creating this patent-pending miles per gal-
lon meter. Instead of manipulating countless measurements, the Kohler meter uses
only one value and continuously distorts it up or down, depending on front and rear
sensor inputs. Hence, you get very easy attachment to a variety of vehicles, at a rock
bottom cost.
