Is anyone using their IPAD in conjunction with rvtech tools app (
www.rvtech tools.com) for their dashboard gauges, speedometer, etc. looks like a nice alternative to silverleaf.
Thanks,

I tried to use it. In the end it was too much trouble. It connects to the iPad via a wifi connection which is a private network to its controller box. If you have a network in your coach like Wifi ranger you had to manually choose rvtechtools and then return to your coaches network when parked. (There is a workaround but I never tried it)
The information that you get to see is essentially the same as on silver leaf. The version that I looked at did not offer any programmability of limits, display sizes etc.
I liked the idea, but in the end it was too much trouble for me.
(Of course your mileage may vary)
