Veypor in the UK
Good morning,
I am trying to decide on a digital dash for my project, I think I am swaying towards the veypor, however I can't seem to find a reseller in the
UK, the veypor.co.uk site seems to be down. Has anyone purchased one of these recently and where did you get it from ??
Thanks,
John

Bought mine on ebay about 18 months ago.
Excellent piece of kit (not working on the car yet).
Lots of useful features plus veypor update the firmware regularly.
Just checked www.veypor.com and it looks like the uk website flag is missing from the country options, so there might not be a uk dealer anymore.
I would suggest contacting the .com site and asking there.

"Datron Technology is pleased to be able to offer the VEYPOR Digital Dash, Data Logger & Performance Meter for under £350.00 complete and
ready to go.
This incredibly versitile, easy to fit, Dash can be fitted to almost any vehicle - in particular bikes. Used in the most basic form, it offers a
Speedometer, Tachometer, Odometer, Gear Position, Shift Light and even Fuel Level & Consumption (Perfect for Special builds & Kit Cars
etc.).
However, the VEYPOR offers much, much more - the principle of measurement uses a 3-axis accelerometer and a wheel sensor input and takes an RPM signal
from the vehicle. This may seem very simple in today's world of GPS, but by not using GPS it does not suffer losses of signals or drop-outs
(bridges, trees, tunnels etc) - VERY important for day to day road use. Another big advantage is that the update rate is a true 100Hz - speeds most
GPS devices at much higher costs can not even get close to.
For additional information and/or advice, please contact veypor@datrontechnology.co.uk or call 01908 261655

tomorrow then...

Have a look on ebay.
Mine was less than half that price.
Try this seller
here from Canada.
Only £160 plus about £30 inport tax (might be nothing if they mark it as a gift). Certainly beats £350!
