Isspro EV Marine gauges: okay at nite?

Hello,

I've narrowed my gauge choices down to Isspro EV marine [blue with chrome rings] and Di/Pricol white face with black rings. I prefer the Isspro but have been told they don't show very well at night. I've also been told that these two choices are equal in quality with the Isspro gauges having a better return/warrany policy.
Anyone unhappy with the EVs at night?

Thanks again for all the help.

Rick

I have the regular EV's and they're great.

Here is a pic of the marines at night. They look good.

My Isspros shine like a beacon at night...I really like the blue backlighting.

Thanks, now did you two guys use a mechanical FP gauge with fuel into the cabin or did you use an isolator.

I used stainless braided line to the gauge with a needle valve in the engine compartment to shut off flow if needed.

I just installed a Isspro whiteface marine blue light and took off on a 3500 mi trip across dark nevade ,east oregon hwy 80 and 95.
The isspro gauge is great. I thought it might be to bright with the white face , Naw , its perfect.

I have the isolator set up from hotrod diesel on mine and a triple pillar pod waiting for 2 more gauges. Slick set up! !

I used an isolator with a needle valve and anti freeze going into the cab. The needle valve was put in because I was getting pulses from the injection pump on my gauge and it was driving me crazy.

Rolling across the dark northwest sounds a lot cooler than rolling north on the NJ Turnpike. Hope you had fun.
Unless someone can talk me out of it, I'm calling Rod for some Isspros.

Thanks, Go Birds.

I love my EV Isspros! They show up great at night, and look awesome in the day, and the blue numbers and white face sets them off. I like mine better than about any others ive seen(not to say the others are bad, im just partial to the isspro EV's).
