Review on Auto Meter 2306 Autogage Tachometer by Johnny Bloomer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent tach for little money

Great tach, easy install, good product filling a niche in the market. It's not too much, but it's not ridiculously small either. It only hits 6,000 rpm, which is really all most people need. There were virtually no other 6000 rev counters to choose from. I just want to have a tachometer so I know how fast the engine is running and where it's shifting. I don't need flashing lights and LEDs or the 11000 range. When I rev my fairly average car to 9000 rpm I don't need a tachometer to tell me how fast it's going because even if I fix the dents in the hood and remove all the oil from the hood it will never start again windshield. . I called it a star because it can only be mounted above the surface, not under, sideways or at an angle. Given how most gauges are made and placed, there's no excuse that the case can't rotate around the tachometer. But if you have a surface to mount it on - which almost everyone does - it's a nice looking touch that seems to work well and doesn't cost much.

Pros
  • Electric
Cons
  • Hard to tell
