Its green backlight and durable construction are designed for use across outdoor machines, from lawn equipment to marine gear, helping you keep an eye on engine health without slowing your work.

What it measures and how you might use it

Track total run time (TOT) and single working hours (JOB) with an optional programmable INT for replacement or maintenance timing. This helps you plan service intervals and minimize unexpected downtime.

• TOT and JOB hours range: 0-999.99 hours.
• SVC timer range: 5-1000 hours.

Real-time RPM and alerts

View real-time RPM with settings that accommodate different engine firing patterns, plus an alert channel to indicate when RPM limits are approached or exceeded. The device also records the highest RPM reached since startup for quick reference.

• RPM range: 0-25000 RPM; alert range: 100-25000 RPM.
• Visual cues help you notice over-speed events at a glance.

Engine temperature monitoring

The temperature probe continuously monitors current and peak temperatures, giving you a clear signal when heat buildup requires attention. You can switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit to suit your preference.

• Temp range: -20°C to 300°C (-4°F to 572°F).
• Switchable units for easy reading on the fly.

Display and lighting

The default green backlight makes the screen legible in low light, while a red backlight can highlight RPM or temperature exceedances for quick recognition.

Installation and durability

Mounting is straightforward with stick-on, screw-on, or an optional bracket. A shielded signal wire (68.8 inches) can be shortened or extended. The unit is designed to resist water and shocks, with a replaceable battery and an insulation layer to protect during transport. Reliable technical support and a 2-year service promise accompany every purchase.

• Signal wrap around a spark plug enables immediate signal detection.
• Water and impact resistance support use in harsh conditions.

Real-world benefits

Whether you’re maintaining a lawn tractor, generator, snowmobile, or marine craft, this compact meter provides a single glance at essential engine data. Use it to plan maintenance, monitor performance, and reduce the risk of unexpected outages on busy days.
