Vibration Proof Tach
«

One of our dumber decisions last year was going with an el cheapo Summit brand 3" tach.
We're looking to replace it with a 5" version that will remain accurate and readable even under high vibration conditions, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
We were also thinking of using a digital tach but I have no experience with them so any advice on those would help too, thanks.

If you mount your tach (and other instruments in a panel and then mount the panel with shock mounts you won't have vibration problems. I mounted my instrument panel to the chassis with small Lord aircraft vibration mounts.
