Reviews

Easy to set up. Works good. I had installed it on a Kawasaki 340 on a MiniMax. The only issue I had is the display digits are not bold enough so it is hard to read the rpm displayed. I am switching over to a Tiny Tach, which is easier to read.

Did not work very well, and only after removing insulation on spark wire on an O-360. Id recommend going with another tach for more standard aircraft configurations.
