[Customer service] is great!
Love the situational awareness that the CGR-30 Combo gives me. Easy to read and understand displayed information.
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.
EI representatives… have been very helpful, truthful, and knowledgeable… We had no idea, that a few weeks later [after our purchase], 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.
Great to have all 6 egt’s, installation was straightforward. [I chose E.I. because of] price and availability.
I really appreciate the quality of communication about my order. The instrument offers the right functionality (being a primary instrument) in the right form factor for my application.
Sharp-looking gauges. [I chose EI because of your] reputation.
[I chose EI because they offer a] certified replacement vs. back-up only and they look great.
It works very well; easy operation.
Installed digital volt/amp gauge in PA 28-181. Great unit easy to install. Much better than original.
All looks very nice. [I chose E.I. because of] previous experience.
Very happy with our new tachometer!
