Those of you with EM's in your panel, please share your opinions
on placement (pictures if you have em..) as well as switch placement.
Also share the reason for your choice of VFD versus LCD and your
experience with that choice.
Hi
Dave,
I have the large VFD in
my RV-3, and figured bigger was better when I got it. I'm less than
thrilled with the direct sunlight readability of the display though. When
I ordered the second EM-2 for my Kolb, I opted for the LCD screen. From
speaking with Tracy, it sounds like the LCD is more readable in direct sunlight,
but perhaps not as nice as the VFD at other times. I plan to take a look
at the LCD display in comparison to the VFD, and decide which I like better, but
this won't happen for at least a few weeks. If the LCD is that much more
readable, I'll probably trade in my large VFD display for an
LCD.
It looks like the
Velocity has a roof of sorts, so direct sunlight might not be an issue with
you. If not, then I'd go with the large VFD.
Cheers,
Rusty (still leaking
a bit, but temps up to 162 Oil, and 182 coolant)
