  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

EEPROM time vs hourmeter

I've just noticed the hour meter I put on my bike (attaches to the spark plug lead) substantially differs in time from the time on the EEPROM (readable on the instruments or via iBeat). Just curious, has anyone else noticed this? I only put the hourmeter on before I realized the bike had one built in, but now I'm surprised at the difference. bike EEPROM says 18 hours and the outside hourmeter says 30...
I had no idea accuracy of these things might be an issue...

Good Topic to highlight-
I recall a couple posts that defined this- yes Ibeat hours will be different. I forgot the way it records.. but its something along the lines of rounding down...
 
Yup, it's on the iBeat. I'm really curious which meter is correct, if any. I could imagine somehow one rounds up or the other down. I can't think of an easy way to test it either. I'm not going to stopwatch my run time!
 
Curious. My external hour meter tracks to the tenths. I wonder why an internal one would round. It would be easier for the ECU to keep one running number even if you have to guess where the decimal place should be later. Cam.
