Electronize speedo

[philip_taylor]

Thanks for all of your help. I bought the correct relays today and my speedo works. I will go and install the other two relays on the other speedo and, hopefully, I will have a pair of working speedos.

I will send the broken pair back for repair. I will probably just get the internal relays in them as they worked fine for three years before I damaged them.

Thanks again.

The external relays are far better for robots. The internal ones supplied are very small and dont handle much current. I had the contacts weld on my first pair of electronize speedos trying to run 200 watt wheelchair motors at 24 volts. I replaced them with external relays 5 years ago and have had no problems since. For external relays I use the automotive ones from Maplin, £1.49 each last time I bought them.

I sent those speedos over just after the above post. So far, they have not come back.

Have you enquired about them to Electronize?

[philip_taylor]

I have sent many emails. I am still waiting on a reply.

I had a similar lengthy wait for my speedos to be repaired..
months and months went by..
emails werent answered
in the end I kept phoning till they sent them back..
I think they couldnt be bothered really
shame

Electronize have had my speedos for a year now. I guess I should give up. No replies to my emails.

I didnt phone them as the cost of a call from Australia to the UK would be too high.

I like the speedos but the repairs are just a bit much.

they could be stuck in customs when ever ye send stuff to australia someone has to go and get it from them
