scoventry62 · 11-02-2009, 05:39 PM

I just picked up my tiny tach from the shop.My question is can I splice the wire to make it longer.The way i want to route it is to short. thanks you Steve

I don't think it will work. It is not just a normal wire. It has a wire inside a wire. I guess like a coax cable.

Doolin is right, it is a tiny coax. You can splice it but there is one wire inside the other and its kinda a pain. I've done it successfully though.

I've done it with speaker wire in the past

But it worked

I really dont know where you would find it? I would google it.

I think a person could use the coax from

a old car radio antenna.

Give it a try see what happens.

You can go to the Tiny Tach website, and order a new one that has a longer wire. It's $10 IIRC.

Might be easier than trying to extend it.
