I was told during the sales pitch that there is a way to change between engines. Now that the units are in, that capability is not there. I am still hoping, but so far nothing. The fuel quantity issue is very frustrating, and they have an " oh well" attitude.
So that is what I was wondering.. I'd almost think for said redundancy - you'da needed to buy two twin engine models.. but then I couldn't figure out how it would be wired correctly..

You are a smart man for going with two separate engine monitors. Why? Is it easier to read? I was wondering why he had two, then saw your response.. But now I'm curious.. How much more expensive is it to buy two vs one? Is this normal?
I had two JPIs on my 421 and really liked it.
More intuitive, the extra screen real estate makes for more glancing and less staring.
And redundancy as has been mentioned.
