Review on πŸ”§ Searon Small Engine Tachometer Hour Meter – Inductive Tachometer for Outboard Engines, Chain Saws, Tractors, Lawnmowers, Motorcycles, Marine Engines, RC Toys, PWC, and ATV by Jason Sergeantson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not bad for a non 12 volt power option

Nice simple hour meter fitted to a 1981 Honda ATC 185s single cylinder 2 stroke engine. had to simulate the RPM setting to 2 sparks per revolution to get around 1200 rpm because the engine has to give out 1400 at idle so its accuracy is a few hundred rpm. As for the hour meter it appears to be a little less than real, for some reason the total hours seems close enough for basic oil drain interval data, can't ask for too much attached to the spark plug as stated by other customers they have to do this with outside temperature data, compass, frost warning and engine temperature.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Hard to tell
