Electronics International’s A-1 instrument provides pilots with the precision and stability needed in order to accurately monitor Outside Air Temperature or Carburetor Temperature while in-flight.
Not only will Electronics International’s A-1 display Outside Air Temp with a stable, one-degree (Fahrenheit) resolution, it also comes complete with an “Ice Zone” light that alerts the pilot when the Outside Air Temperature could possibly contribute to ice forming in the aircraft carburetor.
A Monitor is only as good as its probes. That’s why Electronics International (EI) has taken the development of its probes, connectors, and accessories very seriously. EI has been designing and manufacturing probes for over 30 years. All of our probes have been designed in-house by our engineering team. Our team has studied, tested, and designed temperature probes since the 1970′s. They have written research documents such as The Pilots Manual – Leaning and Diagnosing Engine Problems and Accurate CHT Measurements. Just as a Monitor is only as good as its probes, a probe is only as good as its connector. That’s why EI’s engineering team developed EI’s proprietary OLC-1 connector. The OLC-1 connector greatly increases reliability and reduces installation errors as compared to traditional type connectors. Whether you’re looking for a reliable and accurate CHT, EGT, TIT, or various other probe types, EI has what you need. With more than a half million probes sold and tested you can count on EI’s reliability.

Met all my requirements; great support.
Simple and Easy.
Easy install and great gauges. Previous experience showed that EI’s units were… great prices and even better instruments. Being able to install the gauge as a primary instrument was a major plus.
Compact, precise, awesome!
The older EI ultimate engine analyzer that came with my plane that I bought 7 years ago has always worked flawlessly.
Nice experience working with [sales]… to configure my gauges.” Reason I chose EI? “Past experience with EI.
All looks very nice. [I chose E.I. because of] previous experience.
Customer service always quick and easy. [I chose E.I. because of] price and being recommended by friends.
[EI’s FP-5L with Aux Carb Temp Option] gave me fuel flow & Carby temp & was easy to retrofit.
