If you’re looking for a GPS speed sensor that goes beyond just telling you how fast you’re going, the Dakota Digital GPS-50-2 might just be your new best friend. This isn’t just another gadget; it’s a well-thought-out piece of tech designed specifically for the custom automotive scene. You know how GPS can be a bit flaky under certain conditions? Well, this little guy has got built-in accelerometers and smart software that help it keep its cool, even when you’re driving overpasses, through tunnels, or dodging big rigs. It’s like having a co-pilot who knows exactly what’s up.

Made right here in the USA, the GPS-50-2 is all about accuracy and reliability. It updates your speed 10 times a second, which means you’re getting real-time info that you can trust. Plus, the omni-directional antenna means you can mount it just about anywhere without worrying about losing signal. And if you’re into cruise control, you can easily hook it up to a system with the optional 600041 external antenna. It lets you fine-tune where you place the receiver, giving you flexibility in your setup.

Now, if you’re running a Dakota Digital RTX, HDX, VHX, or VFD3 instrument system, connecting the GPS-50-2 is a breeze. You’ll get not just speed data but also compass headings, altimeter info, and even automatic clock syncing. No fiddling with DIP switches or guessing if you’ve got it right—just plug it in and let it do its thing. It’s all about making your life easier while you’re out on the road.

And here’s a cool bonus: if you want to keep an eye on the outside temperature, just add a SEN-15-1 sensor to the GPS-50-2. Easy peasy. The GPS-50-2 also plays well with other aftermarket electronic speedometers, offering selectable outputs of 4k, 8k, or 16k PPM signals. You can choose either a sine wave or square wave signal type, so you’ve got options no matter what setup you’re working with.

While it won’t control your transmission’s shift pattern, it can still send a solid 54,400 or 128K PPM signal to your ECM, which is handy if you’re doing some unique transmission swaps. It’s compact too, measuring just 4-3/4” x 2-3/4” x 1”, making it easy to tuck away in your ride.

Oh, and did I mention it comes with a two-year warranty? That’s peace of mind right there. Just remember, this thing is compatible with Dakota Digital systems that have a black plastic control module. If you’ve got an older aluminum control module, you can still use the GPS-50-2 for speed signal, but you’ll miss out on some of the fancier features.

So, if you’re ready to step up your speed game, the GPS-50-2 is worth checking out. It’s built for the real world and ready to perform when you need it most.
