Good progress, especially the "drives like a new car" part

I actually read this. Have a nice Xmas Fred

Nice to see it coming together you inspired me to dust of my RPi's and use them again.

I love it Jeff The grinding in your work break, the brackets, doing it the way you can instead of don't doing it because it is not according rules of the internet opinion
Are you planning on implementing OBD2 on FreeEMS and then running an off the shelf ODB2-app on your Pi?

Looks like it belongs there

I think they are very handy for small designs but I don't know how the signals hold up in a harsh automotive environment I hope it works out though, that would be great!

I think the WS2812B would be harder to get stable since you don't have control over the clk line anymore.
I've got some 2801 and 2803 myself, but also the Tlc5490NT which works fine for now. the TLC has less pins (16 vs 18 at the 2803) but the chip layout is more friendly for my protoboard setups

I never noticed this thread until Fred pointed it out. Great to read, gutted about the car vs. tree part, but then again good to see you use the event to build an even greater car. Godspeed! Hope your project turns out well
