It is an EI EGT/CHT/TIT guage. Dual readout, 8 probes per engine (so only have CHT on one cylinder each engine). Other analyzers are probably better, but this is small, fits nicely into my panel.

EI Superclock is excellent. Has:

Altitude alerter
OAT (F and C)
Current time (home time zone or Z)
Elapsed time

all in one instrument. Elapsed timer is connected to squat switch, so it starts timing the flight automatically every time I take off. The alerted is connected to an EI voice alerter that I have set to chime for the altitude, but which will also say "Check Altitude if I wanted that". The voice alerter also says things like "Check oil pressure", "Check bus voltage", and if I wanted to wire it (but have not) "Stall", "Check gear", etc. Again, I really like it because it is easy to use, and takes up very little panel space for several functions.
