If you need to replace or overhaul an old failing instrument, consider buying one of our TR-1s from a company which has been designing quality aircraft instrumentation for over 40 years.

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.

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.
I have several EI units in my aircraft and have been very pleased with their reliability over the years. The other great part, besides the unit themselves, is the support from you all. Thank you for your support over the years… I chose IE for your reputation for quality and pricing. I have been very pleased with my units. My graphic engine analyzer, fuel flow meter, volt/amp meter, RPM and now Manifold gauge.
