Greetings,



I am asking for a friend who is nearing completion of

his airplane.



Strobe sets cost $900



Thee police cares in the Long Island New York area

have strobes in their marker lights. 



Is anyone familiar with them?



Any possibility that they could be used in out

aircraft?



And likewise with the automotive LED replacement

bulbs?

Rich,



 



Check out this site.  This may be what you're looking for.  I will probably

use one of their strobe kits in my RV.

Rich,



I got my strobe system from www.strobesnmore.com.  I'm not flying yet,

but know a number of folks who have automotive strobe systems installed

on flying aircraft.  I will be using the Whelen tail light/strobe unit

from Vans.  You can also check out www.creativair.com.



If you have interior lighting which uses 'regular' filament bulbs, there

are a number of places that have plug-in LED replacements.  LEDs won't

replace landing/taxi lights (yet anyway).



As long as you are putting them on a homebuilt - you can use anything

you want, as long as it meets the appropriate FAA spec, if appropriate,

of course.

Hello Rich



Ain't automotive, Ain't certified, Ain't very expensive:



http://www.kestrobes.com/



I am lookin pretty hard at the Dual Magnum and Combo LED position lights

for Europa project.



Search in arcives if ya wanna listen to the boss man speak of his stuff:



http://www.ultraflightradio.com/



His power supply will drive many heads if ya don't like what he offers.

Not much power draw.



Also too look up install and troubleshooting on his website. 



Supposedly the LEDs he uses are way powerful, and by machiningthe base

from aluminium he is able to sink out some of those BTUs.

<<Rich, I flew a Vari-EZ with Kuntzelman strobes. They worked great and were 

the original

strobes when the FAA inspector signed the plane off for nighttime 

VFR.....skip......>>



2/2/2006



Hello John, A common misconception. I will bet that the FAA inspector did 

not sign anything that said that airplane was approved as is for night time 

VFR. What the inspector signed was a Special Airworthiness Certificate and a 

set of Operating Limitations for that specific airplane that was part of the 

Special Airworthiness Certificate for that plane.



What the Operating Limitations said was "After completion of Phase I flight 

testing, unless appropriately equipped for night and/or instrument flight in 

accordance with 91.205, this aircraft is to be operated under VFR, day 

 only."



This put the responsibility for properly equipping that amateur built 

airplane for night time VFR or instrument flight directly into the hands of 

the airplane builder. The FAA does not certify amateur built experimental 

aircraft for these two conditions of flight because there are no published 

certification standards for amateur built experimental aircraft.



This subject has been discussed previously on the list. I have a table that 

I will send to any one requesting it that more fully describes the 

requirements. That table has also been posted to the web sites of some list 

participants. Probably can find where in the archives.
