[QUOTE="BobL, post: 5190515, member: 14206"] I wouldn't rely on an external contact temperature gauge to prevent overheating. By the time these gauges register the temp that will overcook a saw the saw will be toast. A better gauge would be an EGT but finding one that will run on a small battery and that is physically robust enough to survive on a powerhead could be tricky. Most EGTs are 12V for motor vehicles and not suitable to locate on a powerhead. I would look into the RC accessory market and if you find a good one let us know. [/QUOTE]
