i would say these hobbs are not what they are cracked up to be. my first one crapped out at 100 hours. at close to 4,000 the next one started acting up so a new oil pressure switch and hobbs installed. now my hobbs reads 40 hours. just like starting all over again except the eis has the correct time. seems like the log books would justify the real aircraft times.
