Disappointing tachometer for automotive needs

This tachometer left me disappointed with its inaccurate readings and no backlight, making it difficult to read in low light. The only good thing was its compact size, but it ultimately failed to meet my expectations. I wouldn't recommend this to any car enthusiasts.

Pros
  • Accurately measures engine RPMs
Cons
  • Requires a direct connection to the engine and cannot be used from inside the vehicle

Spares Tachometer

In the packaging I received there was no indication that it was the ESI 329 as advertised, it looks like a cheaper fake. Looks like what I wanted but I didn't give it 5 stars as I haven't seen it over time.

Pros
  • Gauges
Cons
  • Negative impression

Check if it can withstand the rain or not

Good price but one of the two I got wasn't even remotely waterproof. ESI replaced it and I haven't tested it yet to see if it holds up in the rain. However, the device is very accurate, easy to set up and use.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Not the best
