Default VM1000 parts

I'm looking for a VM1000 oil temp sender.
Now that Reggie (http://vmsupport.weebly.com/) is no longer available does anyone know of a source for senders?

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but the VM1000 is nearing the end of it's useful life expectancy, and now that we no longer have Reggie to bail us out, I am beginning to think about a suitable replacement. I am thinking JPI since they tend to use some of the same senders.

Anyone have any thoughts on the EDM-350?

I miss Reggie

I just bought the 350 but have not yet installed it. I can give you a report in a few days.

JPI theoretically supports the vm1000. I tried them once and they did try to help.

What happened to Reggie?

Not sure, but here is the update from his website:

Feb 8, 2020. Due to unforeseen circumstances, all support services are terminated. The web site will remain up as a source of information for the experimental aircraft community.

​Stay healthy and safe during the pandemic, follow the CDC guidelines.

John, I would also like to read about your experience with the EDM-350, install, use of VM sensors, etc. Thanks!

So the answer is the senders are not available?
