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.

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.
Very easy to install. Harness is clearly marked. Instrument worked first time. The instrument is intuitive and easy to use.
Keep it up. I’ll keep coming back.
Always a pleasure to do business with EI. Products ship rapidly. I have been using your products for 20+ years.
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.
Easy install, good product. [I chose EI because of my] experience with [the] product.
All looks very nice. [I chose E.I. because of] previous experience.
Compact, precise, awesome!
[I chose EI because of its] reputation [and the] quality and appearance of the instrument.
Good support when we called with particular questions with the initial setup. We liked the functions and the price.
Really glad to have accurate oil psi and temp! [It’s a] match with previous [EI] installs.
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.
