I'll be totally honest, I didn't realise it was a propriatory format, was just happy it was so user friendly. In any case, for me it's a great help just to get the layout, so I can do it manually.
I might use them. The little miniboard for $51 for three boards is not cheap but in the long run (actually in the short run too) it would save a hell of a lot of hassle. That way anyone else interested could perhaps benefit as well. We'll see.
Been thinking about incorporating a radiator fan speed controller into the circuit. As it stands I have a spare amp so I could take a feed from one of the INA122s and feed a fan driver. I am certain that I am able to see quite strong water temperature dependency on WB performance just with the crap thermometer I have now, I'd like to explore this and a bit of water temperature regulation could be useful.

Attaching a near final schematic for general perusal.
The fan driver is incomplete, I'll add a bit of proportionality and hysteresis later. But you get the idea.
