i see a lot of Tiny Tach problems/failure here - is it advised to replace it right off the bat and be done with it?

Only issue I had was moisture getting behind the face and fogging it up. I called Tiny Tach and it's an easy fix. Slip your knife or a very small flat head screw driver under the corner of the clear front "screen" and it'll peel off. Then clean it and carefully put a thin layer of clear silicone around the frame of the cover and put it back on. Resealed from the elements and problem solved.

Some cool new options coming soon from Tiny Tach. I will have a backlit one to check out soon.

If your tach malfunctions, you can peel the transparent label off, then use a razor knife to cut out the sealant on the circuit board. Then bridge the 2 exposed solder points. It will reset. Squirt some silicone in there, replace the label, and ride into the sunset.
