Product Overview
Reliable Probes

An Engine 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 an Engine 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-2 connector. The OLC-2 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.

. . . the kit looks very well built and the company I fly for . . . has had a very good experience with your products and your customer support.
Great to have all 6 egt’s, installation was straightforward. [I chose E.I. because of] price and availability.

The installation was straightforward and quite easy. Reliability and accuracy far exceed the original [aircraft’s] oil pressure/temperature systems. Also, the price was about a third of the cost to replace the gauge cluster.

Well documented installation process and Support was helpful.
Straightforward installation instructions, great wiring harness. Quick answers from Tech Support.
While the installation is not quite done yet, I have seen the unit in my aircraft with the engine running and the monitor producing numbers. It looks very good and I cannot wait to go flying with it!
Easiest company to deal with and an awesome product! Price, Certified for Primary, and Features.
