What brand of gauges did you buy. I know the board can not supply enough power for A Spek Tach and 6 Spek pro gauges (Due to the amount of the LED's). but I'm pretty sure it will handle what you have. But let us know what brand of gauges you are using and a link so I can look at specs.

Hello.
If the gauges are compatible with the Pro-Gauge, I think the problem could just be with the power supply, which is too small.
The one that comes with the Pro-Gauge is 1A. Probably 3A are enough for all those gauges...

I run a bunch of gauges and the lights were dim with the supply. Cristiano suggested this one ( if you are in the us)

cheap,  free shipping and it hooks right up to the board, now my lights aren't dim

Thanks guys for the help

did I read somewhere in this form that you can use a pc power supply and connect them to the terminals on the board and run it that way?

[Jim W]

I not sure that would be cool, because I have a old power supply.
Cristiano is this true?

i know you can hook the rev burners and your clocks upto a pc PSU, as this is how ive always ran my setup,

i have 2 revburners wired in series and my Gauges running off one 12v rail on my psu.

it works flawlessley and my clocks are nice and bright. I use Alfa Romeo 156 Gauges, Ive also had a cd headunit and other lights wired to the same psu. PC PSU's are alot easier to work with if you know what your doing.

This is my thread of my setup, and all you see was running from one PC psu.

Yes, you can but you really want to check the color of the wires because if you connect them wrong you will see smode.

the 12v (positive) is YELLOW.

The negative (ground) is black.
