#About KoffeeCreations

I Hunter Inman started Koffee Creations kind of on accident if you will. If we go way back to 2015 I was working on a project car with a friend of mine and we ran into this issue of needing a programmable ECU of sorts however we were both in high school so spending a grand plus on one of the programable ECU's out there really was not an option after a whole bunch of brainstorming I thought about what I was working with in Robotics class using arduino's to read a set of sensors to create an output or set of outputs and realized that is essentially what an ECU does it reads a set of input sensors to create a set of outputs obviously a real over simplification but the base idea was correct while doing research that took place over many month all I ever came up with was people saying it was not possible and or not safe as I found out electronics guys are not car guys and car guys are not electronics guys this made for a very interesting conflict of knowledge so I just set out to do it I started simple using a sensor to fire a coil when a magnet whent by however in the midst of me trying to fumble my way through making this ECU while the project was sitting in the garage getting various other work done I stumbled upon a project called Speeduino after a little research I found this ECU to be the perfect fit for us and was and still is our solution for engine control however I still had the itch to do somthing Automotive related with an arduino so I started working on just a basic RevLimiter for my truck a carburated Small Block chevy with no computerized anything. I started buy buying a cheap ebay Shift light and made the circuit that turned the light on turn a relay on and using the NC side of the relay cut power to the coil. I used this solution for a while and in that time learned how to design my own PCB's I then transferred this design to its own PCB and Used an Arduino to count the RPM pulse this is what became now know as the KoffeeCreations USC or Universal Spark Cut module with this design done I now felt ready to tackle the Transmission Controller however if only I had know design after design failure after failure over 30 designs with firmware included it just seemed I could not get somthing to work however finally I realized I was just WAY over complicating what this thing had to do and how it could do it so I scrapped everything and started back at ground zero however this time with a bare bones type approach fianlly I got to a working version however sloppy it worked that design is what I consider the R1 of the TCU thus why you never seen these for sale now I had a working version I could use for myself. I never actually intended on selling these until I was asked by a few people to sell them one. I did sell a couple of the R1 boards however they were complicated hard to use and install so I made the R2 that was designed to be easy to install and use this product was the first product avalible for sale on our website. However even the R2 had issues people couldnt crimp the connector pins and were having issues and along with that the R2 didnt have a voltage regulator requiring an external 5V source and some people were frying there board by putting 12V to them thats where the R3 came along with a much expanded feature set the connector removed and an onboard voltage regulator along with a whole new firmware. This is the board that we currently sell.
