Hello friends

Can anyone comment on this load sensor or alternative, more cost effective, sensors:

This one seems a bit costly at 400+ USD.

Thanks in advance

I use those on several cars, including my wife's race car. If you're getting them for $400 you've got a good source.

Hi again,

What is the preferred mounting method in your opinion? ie. embedded within the gear knob (angular movement) vs integrated (push / pull) or other proven techniques ?

Your help is highly appreciated.

TIA

"The Load Cells are generally installed into the actuator rod or cable on sequentialgearboxes."

It's a longitudinal design strain gauge.

Here is how that sensor is installed onto the end of our shift cable.
