I purchased the same tacho that is in the picture of the first post. It didn't work. It was a piece of junk. Hope you have more luck with yours. Steve.

Gap can be upto about 10mm but less is better. Sensor needs to see the south pole of the magnet, mines been working now for around 3 years without any problem I use a mobile phone charger to power it . H

533 forum posts 26 photos	Absolutely delighted with this £9 purchase on ebay (many sellers offering it). Tested on the trusty Super 7. Gizmo comes in nice little blue pouch. It comes with sticky reflective tape. Snip off a bit, stick it on the chuck, and aim the laser device at it. So on theoretical slowest belt setting of 210rpm, gizmo shows 237 rpm, and on fastest theoretical belt setting of 2105 rpm, gizmo shows 2093 rpm. Could not be more pleased! Pictures to follow...
