Scangauge II -Amazon Lightning Deal $124.99 *DEAD*

[ab2cmiller]

If anyone's in the market for the Scangauge II, Amazon will have it on sale as a "lightning deal" starting at 12:00 Eastern.

Around this time last year they did something similar and it was selling between $120 and $130. So I would assume their price will be something similar this year, which would be $30 to $40 off the current price.

I've got one and I probably recouped my investment within 6 months since it helped me change my driving habits and increased my MPG's by over 15%. For me that 15% increase in MPG's means I'm saving over $200 per year in my gas costs.

Here is the link to the Amazon web site. But keep in mind that it won't go on sale until 12:00 Eastern which is a little less then 3 hours from now.

That is a steal of a deal. I bought mine on Dec. 14, 2007 and paid $159.95. Yes, five years ago!

Bump to say that the deal is back on.

Also, FWIW, anyone that is looking at the Scangauge might want to consider going with an old Android phone (Droid Incredible, EVO 4G, Droid 2, Droid X, etc) along with Torque and a bluetooth OBD adapter. You'll get a larger, color, customizable display that can do everything the Scangauge can do, plus a whole, whole lot more. You can pick up most of the phones I listed above for $50-100 on ebay, Torque is $5 and a working adapter will run you ~$20 on Amazon. And carrier phone will do since you won't need to activate it, though I would be wary of some of the GSM phones (T-Mobile \ ATT) as I know some of them will pop up a message if there isn't a SIM card inserted.

I've been using Torque in my vehicles for a few years now. It helps me keep track of things as well as provide engine vitals. I couldn't go back to anything else.

I'd like to see a snapshot of this setup in someone's car. I'd be interested in possibly doing this to one of my rides

I second this. Anyone got a picture of their setup?
