Bought 3, they work great so far

Love these things. I already had one of these fitted to my mower and when I decided to use four strokes for my weed eater and blower I ordered two more. The manufacturer recommends changing the oil every "X" hours so I can keep track of how long the engine has been running between changes. I think one reviewer said it came out black (which I'd rather have on my Husqvarna weed eater), but all three of mine are the advertised color.

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Cleanliness

Very useful for spares

I bought a WEN alternator that recommends changing the oil every 25 hours of use. Unlike my larger inverter generator, the WEN does not have a built-in hour meter. The only easy way to keep track of hours is with an hour meter. They run on vibration but I've read that they sometimes count hours of vibration during shipping. This is only important when the engine is running. Installation was pretty easy, just a piece of wire that you wrap around the spark plug wire. Then just set the counterโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Frequency

EASY TO INSTALL AND WORKS PERFECTLY

I bought this for a 9000w generator that I want to use to keep accurate logs of breakdowns and hours, oil changes and the like. It's PITA to try a watch, but this little gadget has allowed me to track every minute of run time from day one. I don't need that much, but in this case, more is better and there's nothing left to cut or clean. I used a zip tie on both ends of the wrapping rather than wrapping it in shrink wrap since my spark plug boot won't detach from the wire.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Legacy model

Great value easy to install

Hour Meter works great with Campion Van Ready Dual Fuel Generator. I didn't want to drill holes in the case so I used Extreme Duty double sided tape. I installed it near the base of the handle but decided it might knock over when moving the generator. Just stick it to the bottom inside the alternator housing where you check/top up the oil. I only use the gauge to keep track of 100 hour oil change intervals, so removing the side cover to view the gauge shouldn't be difficult. It was easy toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Zero

Just in case, wrap it with insulating tape and you're done

What is. It works out. I was expecting it to come with some sort of 3M adhesive mount on the back as the description says peel and paste or screw mount, but only screws were supplied. It's ok, 3M tape will never do. Wrap the wire around the Spark Wire a few times and pull the other end into the notch on the back/bottom of the unit. Cover with tape, just in case. Put this on my new snow thrower to keep track of run times and oil change intervals. If it lasts a season or two in the cold, I'll beโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Pensioners

Hour Meter - Lighting & Electrical

Works great with my Honda EU2200i generator. I wrapped one end around the spark plug wire several times, and the other end of the wire entered neatly into the slot on the gauge itself. The meter displays activity to the left of the LCD and tenths of an hour to the right. It took about 5 minutes of engine running to get a reading. Nice Looking Gauge (RED) - Matches my generator. This will help me keep track of the engine to keep up with maintenance. Note: It comes with 2 small screws that can be

Pros
  • Great range
Cons
  • Not the best

So far, so good. There is a slit that you put on one end.

So far, so good. There is a slot on the housing where you insert one end of the wire (no metal-to-metal contact) and wrap the other end of the wire around the spark plug wire a few turns. Apparently he starts counting when he feels the induced current. There is an internal battery that will last at least a few years before the device needs to be replaced. An easy way to track total usage for oil changes, valve clearance adjustments, total hours, etc. I think I'll look for a stick to a magnet to

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Protection

Don't waste your money

I bought two in total after the first one stopped working a few days after installation. The second lasted a few more days. It looks like garbage. I installed the Generac 3000 to the alternator by wrapping the wire around the spark plug a few times and drilling two mounting holes. The LCD of the first just went blank after a few hours of use, the second stopped counting the time with the engine running and stopped recognizing the current through the spark plug, I think. Not happy I spent $12โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions
