So far, great product
Nice experience working with [sales]… to configure my gauges.” Reason I chose EI? “Past experience with EI.
The reviews online were very good. Customer service has been great.
[Customer service] is great!
The OPT-1 is more readable than the factory Cessna oil pressure/temp gauges.
Great product at a great price …. (and) reliability.
Love the look and having every piece of info in front of me… Better price and look [versus competition].
Very nice product, giving a real advantage on fuel management.
Very impressed with the clarity and readability of the CGR-30P gauge.
I have other EI products and your support is great.
We have other EI products currently and have always been satisfied.
After enquiring through (one of) your dealers and calling EI directly it was clear that you provided good customer service and would likely not drop the ball on tech support, and so far I have been right.
