Description
Product Overview
The Auto Meter 6959 Cobalt Digital Vacuum Gauge combines rugged plastic construction with a high‑contrast LED display for effortless reading under any lighting condition. Engineered with a data‑acquisition‑grade solid‑state MAP sensor, the gauge delivers precise vacuum and boost measurements from 0 to 30 in Hg (0‑30 PSI). Dimensions of 6 × 6 × 7 inches and a lightweight 11.8 oz design make installation straightforward, while the painted exterior resists corrosion. Compatibility with 12 V and 16 V systems ensures seamless integration into most street and race car electrical setups.

Usage
Designed for performance enthusiasts, this gauge excels in both daily driving and competitive environments. Monitor engine vacuum during tuning, track boost levels on turbocharged builds, or verify manifold pressure on street‑legal vehicles. The durable plastic housing tolerates vibration, heat and exposure to engine bay contaminants, making it suitable for track days, drag racing, and off‑road applications. Its clear LED readout minimizes driver distraction, allowing focus on the road while keeping critical data in view.
