PowerFlarm Warnings Display Comparison

Great stuff! Thanks!!! Slightly of topic but I wonder why we are still using clock to tell directions. Yeah it sounds cool but is it really necessary? In the age of digital clocks, it takes time for most people to interpret it.. Case in point is tow pilots. I noticed about 20% of tow pilots turning opposite direction when I say for example turn to 9 oclock instead of turn left. The rest take few long seconds to interpret. How about front, back, left, right, front left, back right etc, similar to car GPS? Or 20 degrees left etc? Yeah I know its not perfect either and some people mix left and right as well, but maybe something to consider. Ramy
