A perfect match to our Flush Mount Gas Cap, The Informer's sleek, low profile design incorporates both an L.E.D. fuel gauge and an L.E.D. battery gauge. A daylight sensor automatically adjusts the brightness of the L.E.D.'s. The fuel gauge has a string of color coded L.E.D.'s to indicate fuel level. When full, a single green L.E.D. will be illuminated at the right end of the string. When the tank is virtually empty, a single red L.E.D. will flash at the left end of the string. Red L.E.D.'s appear from empty to 1/8 tank, amber L.E.D.'s appear from 1/4 to 1/2 tank, and green L.E.D.'s appear from 5/8 to full.
Our patent pending design allows the rider to select the fuel level at which the red "empty" L.E.D. illuminates. The stock float and sending unit are notoriously inconsistent and often contribute to inaccurate readings at the gauge. Want the gauge to read empty when the bike is on fumes? No problem. Want the gauge to read empty when there is still a gallon left in the tank? No problem, the choice is up to you.
The Battery Gauge is an array of L.E.D.'s that indicate the operating voltage of the bike's electrical system. Green L.E.D.'s represent the normal, safe operating range of your charging system, 12.5v to 14.5v. Amber L.E.D.'s warn the rider that the bike is not charging. If the reading drops below 10v or exceeds 15v, a flashing red L.E.D. will alert the rider.
