Ecliptech Shift-i shift light

Anyone installed these? https://ecliptech.com.au/shift-i/

I had it mounted in the middle/top of the dash in a Lotus Elise and it made it much easier to monitor RPMs for power and shift points on track.

I would actually prefer if you could just make the beep in the twins audible when driving anywhere past 4k rpms :P

It's configurable to turn on at any RPMs, so it can come on at say 4500 RPM and cover the range up to the redline/rev limit. Nice and dark when you don't need it.

This X 1000

I would pay money for a way to make it louder. Apparently it's a speaker built into the cluster or somewhere behind it I guess and you can't control it with the computer.

I believe it is soldered to the board inside the cluster. I can check. I have one apart on my workbench.
