We now offer a comprehensive kit that includes crimpers and ferrules (20 ga and 24 ga) along with our popular OLC-2 connectors, designed by our engineers with naval brass barrels, a nylon sleeve, and two set screws. This new connection method rivals the strength of gas-tight cold welds, ensuring the most reliable and long-lasting wire connections Electronics International has ever offered for your aircraft engine monitors.

Prepare the Wires: Strip the ends of the wires to the appropriate length.

Crimp the Ferrules: Place the stripped wire ends into the ferrules and use the crimper to secure them.

Insert into OLC-2: Insert the crimped ferrule ends into the OLC-2 connector and tighten the set screws.

Crimp the ferrule.

Snip off any excess wire that may be protruding through the end of the ferrule terminal.

Pull on the crimped ferrule (3 to 4lbs) to ensure that it is firmly attached to the wire.

Insert the crimped ferrule into OLC-2 and tighten with a hex wrench until the hex wrench flexes (3 inches lbs). Repeat on the opposite end to complete your connection.

Pull on wires (3 to 4lbs) to ensure that your connections on both sides of the OLC-2 are firm and secure.

Good engineering support.
EI has the best customer service of any company that I’ve ever dealt with.
I installed a VA-1A Volts/Amps Insturment [sic] in my 1970 V35B to replace the original analog amp meter. What a great dual purpose digital gauge! Installation was simple and the product is very well made. It goes well next to my SuperClock I installed a couple of years ago. EI makes great products and this one will satisfy the most discriminating owner.
I have been flying with EI instruments for over 20 years. I purchased the CGR-30P to update my engine instruments into one modern package.
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.
Installed digital volt/amp gauge in PA 28-181. Great unit easy to install. Much better than original.
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.
Good equipment at a good price. I have used your products before and have had great success.
I really enjoy your products [because they are] simple and easy to use and affordable.
EI’s team is great; you guys are the best.
We liked the price and the reputation of your company.
