Guys,

Remember I was investigating HID landing and taxi lights. I found
some at www.dirtlights.com. They are "2 X 4" ovals and they work
great in my intakes. Believe it or not, I have good CHTs with them
in there.

The owner of the business is a pilot and has been selling these into
the RV market for years. They come in 12V. and 24V. and all shapes
and sizes.

The good thing is they're bright, cool, well sealed and you can put
them in the wingroot, under the spinner, in the wings, or wherever.

I got one spot light for landing, and one flood light for taxi.

I'll send installed photos next week.

Hey Tom,

I had trouble with your link -- goes to the host. If you leave the period off, it becomes http://www.dirtlights.com/ and that works for me.

In your intakes? Post the pics!

Later, - Lew
