Voltage Compatibility | Industrial vehicles, boats, heavy machinery | Industry: 12V only (ISO 6469) Base: 12V/24V (CE certified) Advanced: 12V/24V/36V (IEC 60038 compliant) | ▲▲▲ Supports 36V for heavy-duty applications (e.g., mining trucks). Universal compatibility reduces downtime. | Higher cost for multi-voltage models. Requires specialized installation. |
Certification Compliance | Global automotive markets | Industry: CE (base) Advanced: CE + UL (IEC 60065) ▲▲ | ▲▲ Advanced meets UL standards for North America/EU, expanding market access. | Base lacks UL certification, limiting export to certain regions. |
Display Technology | Modern vehicles, custom builds | Industry: Analog dials (ISO 1500) Base: Hybrid (analog + digital) ▲ Advanced: Full digital (ISO 1500-2) ▲▲ | ▲▲ Advanced ▲▲ offers customizable digital displays (e.g., fuel economy, trip data). | Analog-only systems lack modern data visualization. |
Safety Features | Emergency vehicles, safety-critical tasks | Industry: Basic backlight (IEC 60825) Base: Red critical alerts ▲ Advanced: Adaptive lighting ▲▲ (ISO 2631) | ▲▲ Advanced ▲▲ adjusts brightness for low/high-light conditions (e.g., night driving). | Basic backlight may fade in bright sunlight. |
Material Durability | Harsh environments (e.g., mining) | Industry: Standard plastic (ISO 1400) Base: Reinforced plastic ▲ Advanced: Aluminum alloy ▲▲ (MIL-STD-810) | ▲▲ Advanced ▲▲ withstands extreme temperatures/vibrations (e.g., -40°C to 85°C). | Heavier and costlier than plastic alternatives. |
Customization | Custom builds, specialized fleets | Industry: Fixed display (no customization) Base: Limited settings ▲ Advanced: Full customization ▲▲ (ISO 15143) | ▲▲ Advanced ▲▲ allows user-defined data (e.g., engine load, GPS integration). | Base lacks flexibility for tailored configurations. |
