The VPI SDS turntable motor controller keeps track of the number of hours during which it supplies current to your turntable motor, which can give you a good measure of the number of hours on your cartridge.
"On time" meter for tube life, cartridge life, etc
Does anyone make an "on time" meter. I'm thinking of something that records the number of hours my pre amp stays on, so I can calculate the number of hours in the tubes. I know they're good for thousands of hours, but time passes, and I lose track of time. I wouldn't mind something to use that I could calculate the hours on a cartridge with either. I've a new Shelter 90X, and though I don't get nearly the time I'd like to listen to it, it would be nice to have a timer that I could record the number of hours that it actually contacts vinyl.
Thanks,
