Default What Do Y'all Think of This EGT Gauge?

DIGITAL EGT THERMOMETER PYROMETER W/ Probe - eBay (item 200223229681 end time May-20-08 20:22:58 PDT)

You can set an alarm that trips a relay to power up a buzzer, light, W/M setup, turn on a fan, ect. it also has high temp recall (great for the end of a run when you can't pay attetion)

hhhhmmmmmmmmm

$70 shipped....

not a bad deal but i like to be able to see how fast my EGT are climbing and a analog gauge allows for quicker reference for me. The idea of having the gauge control different functions is a good idea

I got a couple like that in my truck.

The reaction time on mine isn't the greatest, so they're a lot better for things like oil, water, transmission, fuel and ambient temperatures than intake or exhaust temperatures. The eBay ad doesn't mention their reaction time.

For exhaust and intake temperatures, I have a programmable Cooling Mist controller and milspec laptop.

I like the looks of that gauge.

Begle, what Cooling Mist setup do you have?
