Try this site...I haven't personally tried them, only heard of them. But they have a 4 gauge pod. I hear GlowShift pods are pretty trash anyway...the gauges they make don't fit in their own pods.

Isspro has their production factory in Portland, OR. One reason they are growing while many competitors are slowing or going out of business.

Someone told me the dish washer i installed was JUNK !.. Because he had trouble with that brand. Well that was 15 years ago.. Just swapped it out a few weeks ago when i installed a new counter top.. It lasted 15 years and i only changed it because i had the counter top off. !..... She has served us well..

Bought a American made furnace. Because i didn't want to buy some cheap junk. It worked for less than a day.. Called the customer service and they sent me a new control board.

Anything you buy could have a problem. I read a lot on here about folks having trouble with there gauges and they aren't glow shifts.. It is all personal preference and budget.

Dad and I both have Glow Shifts.. Both over a couple of years old. No problems. They have been tested for accuracy. LEDS are for TC lock and EBPV Brake.

And to answer Waltdogs question, I believe Glowshifts are made in Taiwan. Going from memory here, so might not be 100% sure on that.

Can someone tell me how the heck you multi-quote. My forum ignorance is getting the better of me.
