Always very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Over time, I have purchased six different EI instruments for the two planes I own. The instruments are easy to install, very accurate, and dependable. EI has very stable and easy-to-operate instruments.

Product Overview
FL-1 Overview

The FL-1 offers pilots an accurate, stable digital fuel level for single tank configurations. Not only does the FL-1 display the tank level digitally, it also provides a 210° graphical arc for immediate, quick reference of the tank fuel level.
The FL-1 can be ordered to work with a resistive probe (FL-1R-12 or FL-1R-24, depending on 12 or 24 volts), a capacitive probe (FL-1CA) or a 0-5 volt output such as with some Skysports probes (FL-1V). Please be sure to specify which model you need when you order your FL-1.
The FL-1 is not STC’d for installation in a certified aircraft.
Features
Fuel Slosh Stablization
When in flight, fuel will slosh around in the aircraft fuel tanks, creating irritating readings that constantly jump around. The FL-1 has a Fuel Slosh Stabilization calibration point that averages fuel level readings, creating a much more stable, but still extremely accurate fuel reading. Calibrate between a couple of seconds all the way up to over a minute of fuel slosh averaging.
9 Calibration Points
The FL-1 allows installers to program from as little as two all the way up to nine fuel level calibration points in the fuel tank. This flexibility eliminates inaccuracies due to non-linear fuel tanks.
Easy Programming Interface
The FL-1 is a simple instrument to install and program. Clear step-by-step instructions make programming the instrument easy to calibrate to your fuel tank senders.
Selectable Units
The pilot can easily select between displaying fuel level in Liters, Gallons or Lbs with a switch on the front of the instrument panel.

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.
Very happy with our new tachometer!
Good to go! Excellent instructions and easy install. Outstanding instrument!
Staff appears to be very helpful when assistance is needed in verifying information. Heard good things about it [EI] from personal known aircraft owners.

The display is large and clear. The functions are simple and easy to use. Great purchase decision.
I like being able to get a hold of a technical expert immediately when calling into the main EI phone number… The build quality of the sensors, display unit and EDC seem very good… I appreciate the business practices of EI and have had an EI R-1 Tachometer which has worked flawlessly for the past 20 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…
Very accurate readings! The “analog” style LED arc means at-a-glance tach readings that allow the pilot to keep his attention where it matters, not reading a gauge. The digital readout is great for maintenance checks and mag drop tests.

Your product didn’t feel cheaply made. Overall much better quality with the bezel and buttons and knobs. Also much easier to navigate and add fuel.
