What is the suggested retail on a couple of different models?Preferably the new one that is supposed to do it all.
I just got the EDT 8 off ebay for $90 to my door.
I believe my dealer said list is $99.
I used mine today, works real nice. It read a little slow today, but its been sitting in my unheated shed, so the display was a little cold.
i could use two of the washers--have two grinders------wonder how many have been bought by as members?????:biggrinbounce2: thanks to computeruser--ill bet its a bunch--as some that buy--dont post--

Somebody, anybody, ID & OD!!!!!
Somebody to count,
Heck, I'll keep count and then mail them to a dispersal site. Don't know how it works on this site, I'll star making them tomorrow, if I knew the SS washer ID & OD.

Thet Ebay link provided is from Ebay member Partman. He lists the EDT 8 tach every once in awhile. Just keep an eye on what he has listed.
However, for an extra $9, it's probably a good idea to buy from your Stihl dealer so you have a better chance of getting a better deal on the big stuff.

ID/OD measurements
inside with a bit of play 3.140 tight was 3.132 outside needs to be around 3.535
and for thickness. I would say anywhere between 15-30thousandths , basically whatever is handy, cheap or free

And this is the one that "does it all"? Looks identical to the SenDEC that Bailey's sells - except for the nameplace sticker color.
I was looking at the Fast-Tech from DTI since it has a replaceable battery, is wireless and supports multiple firing modes. I wonder if the "4 magnet" thing Andy was talking about would be supported by a different firing mode. Heck - even if it only read half the true RPMs, I think we all could figure out that 7000 was the magic number to stop at.
I wish Andy would post more info on the "4 magnet" thing.

It's not the same as the Sendec. It's also not a matter of just selecting a different mode - if not we'd all do this on the EDT5 etc. The 4 magnet system make the reading unreliable.
The magnets - Two are for a generator to power the microprocessor and metering solenoid for the carb system coming out right now on selected saws. The other two are just standard magneto magnets. The problem is that the low magnitude pulses from the the generator magnets create a field that is picked up by conventional tach and misinterpreted. The EDT7 and 8 have logic to reject the spurious pluses and lock onto the main signal only.
Don't sweat the new ignition system yet - its only one saw initially, (MS280) and it will be a while before the main-stream pro saws are affected.

Thanks.
I take it that the EDT7 is the "deluxe" and the EDT8 is the "pocket". Either have a replaceable battery?
I dont believe I can get to the battery in my 8, Unless I want to glue it back together. I may find a way though.

Shims made by Raised by Wolves
I just ordered one of the grinders and would be willing to pay you for a set of the shims. I doubt I could find the stuff where I live and perhaps could not make them to the correct dimension. You might get enough business from here on this site to make it well worth your while.
Thanks for the info at the very least!!
