Check it out. I thought this looked damn attractive. That, and I'm almost done with mine :-)

Yeah...Seen it and it looks hard to do :PIm not good at electrical ----...

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

What if started building them. Would any of you people buy them? Probably like materials +$30-$40?

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

I've had an unbuilt TechEdge unit gathering dust for a few months now. Looking for a good soldering iron to put that bitch to use.
You cant beat the $150ish (forgot) parts kit price. (including display unit)

Sure TechEdge ripped the DIY WB, but still not a bad price for a more polished (beginner friendly) unit.

I can get a bosch 5 wire for 80.00 ;D

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

i would buy one if it was cheap, and has a display...

Im still looking for a cheap controller. :-[

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

How is it polished or more friendly than the DIY-WB? The 1.0 boards are the exact same thing with a ittle cosmetic shuffling of parts position... I got my DIY-WB PCBs for $4.38/per and parts run $25 from Digikey.

I use a DVOM to read my mixture, but if you wanted you could drop $50 on the Techedge display which is 100% compatible with the DIY-WB output since it's the same hardware platform. Even buying their display, you are way ahead of the full Techedge kit.

Some people aren't comfortable with soldering, but it really is easy. I recommend you test your desoldering and soldering skills on some old broken electronics sometime, it doesn't take much to get up to speed.

lol, I hear ya. But you nailed it, Im a beginner so the complete TechEdge was atractive. :-\

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

i would buy one. or just a parts kit even..

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

I WOULD BUY ONE! ;D, was planing on buying from techedge too, good thing for this homemade website. But what type of Honda/NTK sensor (oxygen sensor) would i need? i remember back when i was about to get techedge i found out these Honda/NTK sensor are hard to find. but e-mail i'll email you or u can email me stylinsyrup@Yahoo.com

Good Luck

is a tech edge a wideband o2 sensor? Where can i buy one? thanks for the help.

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

not to get technical, but doesn't that violate the terms of usage posted on the front page of the DIY-WB site?

T3: that $80 bosch 5 wire sensor won't work with the DIY kits. it's the LSU4 version (i'm assuming you're talking about ATPturbo.com's prices)

the DIY guys were out of PCB's when i emailed them. i was waiting on that, but now since the sources of the necessary sensors have all but dried up and techedge is supposedly releasing a version that will work with the LSU4 sensor, maybe it's worth waiting for. i just hope they post the schematics for it so i don't have to buy their kit...

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

I know what the site says, and I'm not trying to pass this off as my idea or make any kind of profit. I don't, however, see anything wrong with trying to get some form of compensation for sitting cramped over a PCB for 2 hours putting it together. If people want to attempt to solder it themselves, then I'll be happy to tell them how. However, if you had no idea how to solder and you just dropped $200 on a bag full of IC's, I'm sure you wouldn't want to jump in with soldering iron blazing. Sorry if I sound like a dick, but that's just my opinion.

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

no problem, i understand.. just didn't want you to get into any trouble with licensing agreements or anything.. some people are pickier than others about their intellectual property..

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

I don't think $30-40 over cost is exceeding a reasonable profit for your time. BUT. It is in direct violation of the DIY-WB agreement.

I'd rather sales of assembled DIY-WB boards wasn't discussed on this forum, just to keep everything clean and sanitary and friendly with other places on the web. Namely, DIY-EFI and DIY-WB. PM and email works great, hint hint.

Re:How about a build your own wideband O2?
 

how much do all the parts come up to again

i think i was on there and it was like 35?
