What happened to Van's engine gauges

[tcone1]

Folks,

A friend just had an overvolt and fried all his stock engine gauges.

The Van's web site shows them as no longer available...What gives?

Thanks,

Tim

Did you try asking Vans?

[Steve Barnes]

I believe Chief has exactly the same instruments without the RV logo on them.

I suspect sales probably dropped to almost zero... almost everyone is installing an EFIS of some kind now.

On behalf of the traditionalist here, I bought the Van's engine gauges a few months ago, to go along with the new steam VFR gauges going in my -6, I think they are the same as the Chief gauges, don't give up the fight, build the airplane you want.

If anyone is interested, I do have several Vans gages that I did not use in my build. New and unused in the box: tach, fuel pressure, ammeter, CHT, EGT, and a fuel primer.

I have two fuel level guages and a voltmeter with 10 hrs on them on the shelf.
