Interesting: It doesn't measure knock in "dB" as the knocklink does (though it's uncalibrated, of course) but obviously has some kind of noise threshold in a specific frequency range, and once this is exceeded it "counts" it.....holding an LED for 3 seconds.

So it's showing "number of detonations per 3 seconds" as opposed to "current det level". Definitely a better indication that you've got a problem (harder to miss) but perhaps not so meaningful.
