Help request on (a sort of) Arduino project for vintage cars...

-

dear,

having melted engine bronze bearing of vintage car of 70+ years old,

i wish have in future 2 temperatures monitored (engine oil , engine water coolant) on simple lcd or digit display.

exists way doing arduino?

or exist better , simpler programming environment (i.e. nano) , related hardware?

of course, fanatics using vintage capillary thermometers (far reliable), , enthusiast in club wish have electronic , more sophisticated solution implement in future more useful features in order drive safer such of vintage cars, e.g. battery voltage , humidity , temperature in car.

all devices must removed during concourse (apart thermocouples), story...

many thanks.

temperatures monitored using thermocouple or ntc (thermistor). 1 choose depends on temperatures , how can place them; thermocouples can go higher in temperature , more chemically resistant can go directly in oil/water.

for project nano sounds suitable: sufficient number of i/o pins , breadboard friendly can solder on breadboard. simple 1602 lcd provide display need.

you can later quite expand other sensors, such indeed battery voltage , atmospheric conditions.

hi im working on 8x10 matrix leds , successful @ using guide http://www.instructables.com/id/810-led-matrix-with-4017/ using 4017 , 74hc595 now want expand matrix 16x10. i connected , worked added 74hc595 control second 8x10. my problem want display text using both 8x10 im using code guide , modified think doesnt work code: [select] #define someshape    {b0100001001000010,b1110011101000010,b0100001001000010,b0000000001000010,b0001100001000010,b0001100001000010,b1000000101000010,b1000000101000010,b0100001001000010,b0011110001000010  }    #define all     {b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111,b1111111111111111  }                        #define someshape2   {b0100001001000010,b1110011101000010,b0100001001000010,b0000000001000010,b000110000100001...
