That's at least 2 orders of magnitude more expensive. Maintaining a functioning screen on charge & online is no easy, even less outdoors

- xboxnolifes 5y agoMeters generally already have a screen for showing remaining time. And the meter would have to be online if you can pay from an app, unless the meter is now just a pole with a sticker and everything including remaining time in in the app (Which is not the case for these meters).
- shard 5y agoNow that meters are moving from purely mechanical to electronic devices, the extra cost of the display and connectivity can be reduced by having a central pay station for a row of parking spaces. I believe I've seen some form of central pay station on some streets.
