I will do the next update slower so I can write all the changes down and share lol

      @@AlexAutoFun That is understandable, hence why I was trying to help :-). What Ci Z33 is saying is that they are doing a terrible job marketing this product, it is actually marketed incorrectly. Additionally, they have OVERPRICED this product by a long stretch, which is true - compared to all other HUD products out there. It's a replica of existing products, and they just got lucky with kickstarter raising money on a product they have quite literally cloned. If the other companies were in Europe or USA, there would be infringement issues for sure, but they're Chinese mass-producers who could care less. One more thing.. he stated this isn't a HUD but a computer interface, that is 100% CORRECT. A HUD is an analog, this is just a projection of what's on the phone. Those devices range between $49-$69 online... Anyway. Hope that clears it up a little. :-)

Since Hudway is a private company this is the closest indicator we have to production numbers. Also they just released another App update and a firmware update earlier this month with some noticeable improvements (likely from the use of the Feedback button on the App) Here is also a good alternative while you wait for your Hudway ua-cam.com/video/K7FbhZTxxaA/v-deo.html Cheers!

      @AlexAutoFun  8 місяців тому +1

      Hi Soul! I currently don't offer local installation, as I'm focused on reviews. But if what I typically seen is that installer pricing can very quite a bit depending on many factors such as: if they are licensed and insured, if they mobile or brick and mortar, if they are experienced or new, the type of vehicle (specialty or luxury vehicles typically are more), if the product is customer supplied or purchased from the vendor. So I would recommend to get a couple quotes before deciding on one. Cheers!

I would guess the engine/vehicle info coming from the OBD-II port is “Bluetooth” or hard wired. I will look it up and see what info they provide.
    Perhaps the big screen is full with the cockpit of an F-18 Raptor...Yea! Just don’t hit any RED flip cover switches. You could destroy the Kia in front of you. I wear glasses to read, but not to drive, it can see the dash clearly so it’s positions measurement from the face to screen would be info someone may like.

      The Master tech level or any certification last 5 years. Like a dummy, I took all 8 test in the spring or fall but instead of 60 questions on each test, 40 questions on the re-certification test. It last five years and I have kept all mine by going back in 5 years, sometime 6. They don’t take it away. If you are current in all 8 test, you are allowed to take “L1” advanced emissions. It is 100 questions and I missed one. I passed “P2” and “B2” for parts & body/paint. But you have to have 2 years of actual work experience with a letter from the manager.
      There is only 5 types of questions so Master them and learn how to read in a test book and you can take pay & take 1 or 8 test. It is draining for one night but I don’t have to take them anymore. Not bad for a farm kid who never went to trade school and high school didn’t even have shop!

      Hi tubeyourself! The tape on the first generation base is not as strong as the tape on the new bases shipping out (mine was the original base) that being said while the original tape allows it to come off easier, it is still going to attach pretty strong, and depending on how long it has been on there the harder it is to remove.

It reminds me of a spaceship display like in the movies.

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  2 роки тому

      Hi Franck! it does not, however there are 2 ways you can make it show it, one would be to use the mirror function so you can display Waze or Maps which do have the speed limit. The other way would be to submit that feature request using the app button for submitting requests, I imagine if enough people ask for that feature they may add it in the next update.

    I've seen this device online and I even emailed the company and never heard back from them, but this HUD System seems to take the adapter for power via a cigarette input, most newer vehicles DO NOT HAVE THIS, so will it get power via just a USB port in the Vehicle and not using the device that plugs into a cigarette lighter port?? - How long is the power cable from the unit to the USB port? also how will the little screen hold up under intense heat from the sun beating down on the dash of your vehicle during the summer seasons? Thanks

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  3 роки тому

      Hi Eric! That is correct, they included a cigarette adapter for people who do not have a USB port on their cars. Since I have a USB port on my car I did not use the cigarette plug adapter. Regarding the length of the power cable, I was able to route mine over the dash, around the A Pillar and under the dash again until it made it to my USB port so I would say maybe about 6 feet long. However if you need a longer cable you could use one of this amzn.to/3cuGSXp As far as heat in summer season, I would recommend using a sunshade, I always use one to protect not only my dash but also my dashcam (here in California we get some very hot days), while most electronic devices can sustain high temperatures their life span can be improved by protecting them from unnecessary heat.

Which should enable the Hudway drive to display the RPMs and other car stats (I track my cars, so I'm curious to see this thing in action next time I take out to autocross).
