Hi, all I found a temperature gauge, that works and was wondering how to incoperate it into a a pedal as a distortion / current / gain meter  or some thing. Any good ideas?

I'd mount it on a wall in my house, that's one cool looking temp gauge... and it appears to work too!

You'd first have to be sure that it's a moving coil meter and not some wierd-ass mechanical beast. If there's a bit of electronics inside and the meter itself just has some magnets and coils in it (as opposed to gears and levers etc) then you have a chance of retro-fitting it to something.

google "moving coil meter" for general info and have a think about what you actually want it to meter for you.
