Good reviews and I don’t have to modify my panel. Additionally, the reps at Oshkosh were extremely helpful and answered all my questions.

Good value and functionality. I’ve used your instruments on multiple aircraft thru the years with no issues. These are a nice upgrade over the original instruments in most older aircraft.
Your products always work great! Great customer service and a quality product that we have used for years.

Installing [EI’s FP-5L] in my RV 6. . . owned an FP-5L, 6 years ago in a Cessna 206 on floats in a commercial operation in Alaska. Getting every ounce of payload, and coming home across Cook inlet with the Cessna gas gauges near or on empty, I spent a lot of time explaining the benefits of the Fuel flow gauge… and reassured my passengers there were 12 gallons of fuel on board. I’m a believer…
Great service for Electronics International. Very helpful with what it needed for my aircraft. My mechanic has installed several of these units and highly recommended this for my aircraft.
Easy Install.
