I must say that the Huey was never as highly regarded as the Spyder both on results and build quality.

Incidentally, the problem with your Huey sensor may just be a broken connection in the wiring, it may be possible to repair it. If you don't get any satisfaction from the manufacturers PM me.

Thank nirofo, I have ordered it now so hopefully I won't have to wait to long. Its not the colors I can't get right, that's the easy part, its my perception of the contrast and brightness I can't trust.

I also think its just a broken wire probably close to the sensor, that's the area that gets kinked when putting it back on the stand. I might have a look inside the sensor myself if I don't get a reply to my email and test each end to see if there is a break.
