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.

Gauge works great! Very happy with purchase.
The [unit] is easy to read and quick to respond. I have multiple EI units and have had good experiences with all.
Looks Great, and intuitive to use. Packs a lot of information in a tight area, yet, I don’t need my glasses to read it!
EI representatives… have been very helpful, truthful, and knowledgeable… We had no idea, that a few weeks later [after our purchase], we would need to have a Top Overhaul. What great timing! Having your engine monitor installed in our plane will hopefully help us keep it out of the shop for further engine repairs.
Very happy with our new tachometer!
I have seen your products in other aircraft and have seen their reliability.
Your sales and support teams are very helpful.
[I chose EI because they offer a] certified replacement vs. back-up only and they look great.
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.
Keep it up. I’ll keep coming back.
Very easy to install. Harness is clearly marked. Instrument worked first time. The instrument is intuitive and easy to use.
