Question Smartcraft SC5000 Display

For those of you that have the SC5000 LED display screen, how easy is it to read in direct sunlight? Overall, how do you like this system and would have it installed if you had the choice again?

Thanks for the replies. I take it you guys like it? It is an option on a new Formula Fastech 292 ($2145 MSRP).... trying to decide if it is worth it. Sounds really slick with all the information it provides....

I've got the basic Smartcraft for each motor. I would definately recommend the system.

It looks like a great system. How much does it REALLY cost on the street?

I have twin 525 EFIs with a full set of std gauges and one small smartcraft monitor for each engine. The smartcraft monitors could replace my full set of gauges, but I like having a full dash. The monitors I added were a lot less expensive than the SC5000 and still tell me a lot of information on the boat. I really enjoy watching exactly how much fuel I am burning while running..
