These little “hobb meters” are a must for all your small engines. I have them on my generators, gas welders, lawn tractors etc. they are super easy to install and keep track of how many hours are on your equipment and can tell when they need service…. Very cheap insurance

Installed on my generator after changing oil to stop guessing when to change oil. Installed simply with included screws. Ran it against my stop watch and accuracy is spot on. .1 is 6 minutes almost exactly. Highly recommend although I cannot speak to longevity so far it is perfect especially for the price and ease of use

Took me less than 5 minutes to install. Flush mounted on the upper panel of my generator (see pic).Now I don't have to guess between oil changes. Installation was a breeze, comes with long enough wire, zip ties, fastening hardware.Very simple installation only requires to put the signal wire in the slot on the back of the hour meter, then run it to your spark plug wire and then wrap it around it several times (see pic) and secure with the vendor furnished zip ties. Tested on gen set and work!!Very good product. If anything changes in quality I will edit my review, but as of now it's five stars.

Hello All,My Dad's (rest his soul) vintage (early 1980's Sears Craftsman model) edger rebuild project came out better than expected, especially with the hour meter monitoring (as you can see). I love doing these projects and seeing each of them transform right in front of my eyes. It was fun...Well, it started the first pull and it's a great little hour meter, as well. It all works just Awesome! However, the instructions need a bit of tweaking in my opinion because it is kind of vague on what to do with the sensor pickup wire at the spark plug lead. By the way, I did a "5" wire-loop wrap and zip-tied it off there and it worked great. I even found some original Craftsman stickers too...I test-ran my newly rebuilt edger with its new (waterproof) hour meter for the first time a couple of days ago and it did just fine. It registered just under half an hour (0.4 as you can see in the picture). Now, I will know exactly when to change my break-in oil at 5 hours of use, then 20 hours or whenever I feel the usage is there, rather than guessing.All in all, it's an impressive Edger Project, and that little "red" hour meter is second to none because it's being monitored by yours truly, me. I tried to give you all a before and after view of my little project, so I hope you liked it and its hour meter installation too...Sincerely,Jimbo

First, you can’t beat the price of this thing. Second, it helps track the hours of my mower’s engine run time so that I can change my oil at the right intervals. Finally, it’s really easy to install…It comes with a fairly long wire. I wrapped one end around the spark plug wire, checked the length to where I wanted to mount the display, and tucked the wire into the slot on the back of the display. I mounted the display and secured it with the two included screws. Secured the end of the wire wrap around the spark plug wire with one included zip tie and secured the other end with the other included zip tie. I then trimmed off the the zip tie ends and the excess wire. Easy! Works great!

Read and watched videos of installations and finally installed on my 2021 toro zero tun mower. It works. Now to see how accurate it is will take awhile. Simple to install for an old man. Much cheaper than Toro’s meter that they should have put on the mower at factory.
