Has anyone used these before? I have the Westach combined CHT/EGT gauge, however it only gives me readings on one cylinder. I think having all four would be valuable. I noticed these probe/switch kits that fill out the other cylinders but, I'm not sure if they work for the combined gauges.

Anyone have any experience?

Thanks,
 
I have the Electronics International (EI) equivalent, I believe it’s an EAC1 which came with the plane. It is a single cylinder CHT/EGT digital gauge with OAT. I installed the EI 4 position switch and associated probes last year. Now I can view each cylinder CHT or EHT as desired. Great for leaning but more importantly identifying and monitoring the warmest cylinder CHT. I eventually would like to replace the EAC1 with the EI UBG16 computerized engine monitor when the budget allows.
