one for the electronics guys!

has any1 considered making an led rev counter/gear change indicator?
i assume the rev counter receives an electronic signal?
how hard would it be to make a row of leds....maybe red, amber, green that indicates the optimum gear change point, based on revs?
thought it might look cool, but i like shiney,twinkly things....me missus calls me the magpie

Medium easy.

You need a buffer / trigger (proly an op-amp), frequency to voltage converter, and a bargraph driver. About 15 parts in all (proly less).

I would make one... but I don't have time.
