📈 Accurate Readings with DIGITEN Digital Tachometer Proximity Switch Review

I bought this for my Logan lathe. It works great and everything was as advertised. The schematic was correct and easy to understand. The device requires 9-15 volts DC, but there is no mention of how much power the power supply is supposed to deliver. I first used a 9 volt battery with clamps and it worked great with the included magnet. However, with a 15V 200mA power supply, the magnet wasn't strong enough. I ended up using a 9V 300mA power supply and it works great. I just had to mount the…

I installed at the end of the crank with a bolt and a couple of washers. Once you are sure the magnet is on the correct side of the cartridge, sand down the slot in the magnet discs and use some epoxy for extra protection. I…

Spent hours milling a mount for my lathe. I installed everything correctly, paid special attention to the polarity of the magnet, and the display shows only zero.
