Elliot Rev Counter

My research indicates that Elliot Design, the original manufacturer of Elliot rev counters, officially ceased operations in December 2009 Caterhamlotus7. Consequently, new "Elliot" units are no longer in production, though they remain highly sought after in the enthusiast and kit car markets.

Market Trends & Insights

• Secondary Market Demand: Original Elliot tachometers are primarily available as New Old Stock (NOS) or used units on platforms like eBay, often commanding high interest due to their classic analogue aesthetic and reliability in high-revving engines (e.g., Fireblade-powered kit cars) Caterhamlotus7Sideways-Technologies.
• Shift to High-Performance Alternatives: The market has transitioned toward specialized manufacturers like Speedy Cables, Smiths, and Stack. Stack's ST200 model is particularly noted for its high RPM capability (up to 15,000 RPM), while Smiths offers a "period-correct" look for classic builds Caterhamlotus7.
• Digital Hybridization: There is a rising trend toward digital/analogue hybrids from brands like Acewell, which integrate RPM with other telemetry like speed and warning lights into a single unit Caterhamlotus7.

Supplier & Service Solutions

For those seeking new hardware or support for existing Elliot gauges:
