carusoam Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 That color looks familiar… the LVL button..? https://www.garmin.com/en-US/blog/aviation/blue-button-helping-keep-blue-side/ -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmcconnaha Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 lots of time behind both. I like the ability to add alerts and such to the EIS. The JPI is a fine product also. if i wasnt cutting a panel, id stick with a round instrument. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they could share but I don’t think they do? There are two. They always disagree. I am not OCD so I don't fret about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piece of tape or some other packaging artifact left over from install. See previous post for OCD status. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is asking about the little blue thing sticking out on the left side of the EDM. As someone previously stated it looks like a piece of packaging from the install or some such.

ArtVandelay Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 It’s a piece of painters tape that held the protective clear plastic it’s ship with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingDude Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 OCD is 3 letters, so I have the jpi700, g5 AND windshield OAT probes. All in C (well, the windshield probe has both)... And they all disagree... Windshield and G5 probes are pretty close to one another (in readout, not locationwise). Jpi probe is on the lateral air scoop and I'm starting to think that it's not adding any value... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpi probe is on the lateral air scoop and I'm starting to think that it's not adding any value... the naca scoop on the side reads higher than actual, too close to exhaust and engine. Really needs to be in undisturbed air. But installers love using the naca scoop because it’s couldn’t be easier to install there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LANCECASPER Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Knowing that Garmin is selling a lot of their EIS, it wouldn't surprise me to see JPI certify their experimental EDM-350. https://www.jpinstruments.com/shop/edm-350/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, for those of us with 1 exhaust, you’ll want to install it on the opposite side. Mine runs ~3° hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
