Hardwired senders draw approx 13ma compared to the std digital tachos 10ma are are detectable through this current drain. However, this is old technology and software known as TC/Drax is now used which has an encrypted 10 figure and 52 letter upper and lower case input and is only removable /adjustable by the user, its not detectable by any equipment DVSA or other governing body inspectorate own. Its not used for time only speed ie the tacho is set to read a max of 90kph when the limiter is much higher. Costs around 100 euros for speed re calibration…

Thanks for that info, I’d come across the second sender type setup but have never heard of this type, I guess it’s more of a reprogramming type of thing rather than adding hardware. Clever stuff but like previous posters mentioned I think anpr would be the biggest issue for anyone using it.

Youre right, the tacho is reprogrammed itself negating any need for a secondary outside sender.

Isn’t that the kind of thing that’ll see you helping Big Jim retrieve the soap he just dropped?

Another 1 caught with one.
