I run autometer marine mine doesn't fog but my buddy runs the same gauges and his fog. I ran VDO marine in another boat and had no trouble with them either.

We have installed all brand.
I have never had anyone come back to me with a broken gauge. I feel installation has alot to do with it. Fogging has a lot to do with tempature and location of the gauges and or ventalation in that area. Also I know boats are suppost to get wet but if you have allowed days of rain to cover them they will fog until dried properly, no matter what brand. This same issue is why some gauges fail. Even though they are marine gauges does not mean they are submersible.
Livorsi vs Gaffrig Mike Livorsi has developed a company like no other. Providing product that has been imitated and never duplicated. Bought the Gaffrig company and then had to deal with a legal problem when they just started using the name again. Started the Livorsi name and went to the next level in his field. How is it possible that you sell a company and then just open up again all while the person who bought the name has taken it to the next level? I do not know the whole story but this was stuff I heard during all of those issue's a few years ago. No matter what you choose I would say installation and care has a lot to do with longevity. Your gauges deserve the same care as the rest of your boat!!! Billy:drink: |

Had Gaffrig Or Livorsi For Years , Lets Face Autometer Makes Most Of Their Stuff , Thinking About Straight Up Auto Meter Platinum for my 32 skater. Only Had A Few Issues With Livorsi , Had To Tap On Them A Few Times To Get Them To Move , But Other Than That No Issues , Just Feel The Name Is Now Old School

"What guages are in now?"
Who cares! Do what I do, and buy what you like, and then enjoy it. Never, never let someone tell you what to buy, just because it is the 'flavor of the day'. |
