Default Question for EMB Legacy Pilots

I have some questions for experienced legacy pilots...

1.) E CLB: When do you use E CLB? I understand that it is a result of depressing the CLB button twice, but why would you use this and could operating at E CLB adversely effect your engine overhaul cost, insurance, etc?

2.) T/O mode Takeoffs: Obviously there is less thrust output when using the ALT T/O 1 power setting, but will selecting T/O mode decrease engine life or increase engine overhaul cost? Basically, are there any consequences of using T/O mode all of the time?

3.) E T/O: I could not get a straight answer from anyone on this... What are the consequences of using E T/O mode? Does it require to be logged if a certain number of E T/O takeoffs are performed?


Thank you for any input you may have.

I met the webmaster on the ramp in TEB the other day.
