Falcon AltN6Mbf-3 Altimeter
I purchased this altimeter from Aircraft Spruce. The order was executed in a timely manner by retailer, and I give 5 stars rating to Aircraft Spruce. However the instrument came with no instructions. It has a hard plastic connector at the back, with no instructions on how the static tube is to be connected. And the connection is not even intuitive. It requires a special adapter which was not supplied. I dont even know what adapter to order. Many home-builders are not professional mechanics. A one page instruction sheet giving some basics of how to set up the instrument is an absolute minimum for any unit for which I pay $ 215.00. So The manufacturer gets 1 star rating.

No, this gauge does not have built in lighting. To add this you will have to buy a lighting ring for this like the UMA or Nulite.
Yes, these mechanical altimeters require a static source. This can be built into a pitot tube or onto the fuselage of the aircraft but varies from airplane to airplane.
It is pressure sensitive instrument and cannot leak.
