Product Overview
How It Works
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.

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 won a FP-[5]L and had it installed in my c150. I was/am impressed with the accuracy and ease of operation of the FP. I wanted a new tach and I trust (and verified) that the EI R-1… would be my best choice. I am not a rich man. These instruments are affordable and incredibly accurate. Already planning my next buy from EI.

The FP-5l I had installed is easy to use and so accurate it’s almost scary. When I find a company that produces a product that good I stick with them. The fact that these instruments also look so darn good didn’t hurt either.
Responsive customer service, kudos to [customer service].

After a full IFR install on my Cessna 175, my two favorite instruments without question is the CGR-30 Combo set. Simple and customizable, the data is invaluable!
Love it!

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.
