Re: The Supertester

At $150, we'd probably buy one. I would love to have a standalone device to test jaguars with the CANbus, similar to what it sounds like it already does with a PWM signal. But modifying it to provide CANbus functionality might be a good off-season project for students. Whether we in fact put up the money depends on what we have left at the end of a season. I think you'd find a lot of folks who have a "use it or lose it" situation at the end of the season, and would welcome the chance to bring in a hackable device like this.
