Easy installation, lightweight solution. It looks good and is easy to use. [I chose E.I. because] I needed to replace my old Hobbs meter. This provided more functionality, allowing me to remove my old digital timer, and EI programmed it to my current airframe time.

Works great!
I have been installing avionics since 1996. This was THE BEST wire harness I have ever seen!
The display is large and clear. The functions are simple and easy to use. Great purchase decision.
Your products always work great! Great customer service and a quality product that we have used for years.

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!
EI’s products are the only ones we recommend to our customers.

I won a FP-[5]L and had it installed in my c150. I was/am impressed with the accuracy and ease of operation of the FP. I wanted a new tach and I trust (and verified) that the EI R-1… would be my best choice. I am not a rich man. These instruments are affordable and incredibly accurate. Already planning my next buy from EI.

Your sales and support teams are very helpful.
Working with EI representatives from the OSHKOSH show and sales representative has been a pleasant and positive experience. They have been very helpful, truthful and knowledgeable about EI’s products. I have yet to see the MVP-50P in action in our plane. Waiting for the Top Overhaul to be completed. We are glad we secured your product at the airshow. We had no idea, that a few weeks later, 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.

I have worked with and installed a few of your competitors’ and your systems. EI instruments’ ease of use and installation make these systems my go-to choice and number one recommendation to customers.
