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.

Really glad to have accurate oil psi and temp! [It’s a] match with previous [EI] installs.
. . . looks really good! Friends have these installed and give very good reviews.
I love my new EGT. Very accurate and has ambient air temperature so I know how cold my engine is before I start it. Easy to see lighting.
The FP-5l I had installed is easy to use and so accurate it’s almost scary. When I find a company that produces a product that good I stick with them. The fact that these instruments also look so darn good didn’t hurt either.
Very pleased with the quality. [Chose because of] positive reviews from other aircraft owners.
Very impressed with the clarity and readability of the CGR-30P gauge.
All looks very nice. [I chose E.I. because of] previous experience.
We chose your product because of the great support and reputation your company sustains.
Excellent installation instructions [&] recommend[ed] by others.
The CGR-30P is a fantastic product and EI has excellent customer service. EI is the leader in engine monitors with a strong track record.
After a full IFR install on my Cessna 175, my two favorite instruments without question is the CGR-30 Combo set. Simple and customizable, the data is invaluable!
Straightforward installation instructions, great wiring harness. Quick answers from Tech Support.
