I’m creating a battery powered weather gauge that can hang on the wall and show the current temperature, forecasted temperature, and forecasted precipitation sourced from my Tempest weather data. The goal is with one glance let the observer know what the day is going to look like. Is it going to b…

Weather Gauge update October 16, 2020 Step 3 create a gauge app is about 80% complete. I have the Tempest gauge app running on the Gauge Data Transmitter (GDT) and pulling weather data from my Tempest. It is beaming the current temperature to a non existent WallGauge (building the physical gauge i…

imperial units are not rocket science, but shouldn’t be used in rocket science.

guys can we please cease the imperial vs. metric back and forth, or take it to twitter or something ? Thank you.

But. but. but… Imperial put man on the moon and created the best nation on God’s Green Earth.

That looks amazing! I watched the gauge booting video but the “Hot off the laser” says “private video”.

Nasa has always used Metric measurements. Lockheed… Not so much. :wink:

Any chance of sharing the circuit for the gauges? and what kind of stepper motor you use? I live in the UK and due to import duties and taxes it’s unlikely I’d ever be able to afford to but one but I’d love to have a go at making my own personal version of the gauge

Over the weekend I cut a new Gauge Face and assembled 4 gauges. Here are a few Pics of the progress. I also included a video of booting each gauge.
