I bought this light from Aircraft Spruce. The description below comes from

their Web catalog. The unit looks and works great but you may want to know

there is an issue with this light. This part no. will not flash the strobe

separately, it will strobe only when the tail light is also on. I contacted

the factory and they said "...What we can do is send you a different model

PosiXP that has a universal circuit board in it and which will permit you to

have whichever connection pattern you desire.... strobe on with light or

strobe off with light....." 



They asked me to return the one I have and they would send the different

model out from the next production run in mid-June. BTW, this problem was

solved the same day I raised the issue with the manufacturer, aren't

airplane people great to deal with?

Dan Langhout did an excellent write up on the posistrobexp from Aveo and the

suntail from AeroLEDs.

(http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=42940)



I'm glad to hear that there is an upgrade in the works.  Have you noticed

any RF issues with the posistrobexp as Dan reported?



Initial comparisons has the Suntail producing a brighter strobe output, but

at about $70 cost penalty.

I have not installed the PosiStrobe XP light as I am returning it in favor

of the model that allows strobe and position light to function separately so

can't comment on the RF issue. However, the Suntail from AeroLEDs doesn't

appear to mount the same way the Whelan it would replace does. IE, the LED

housing covers the holes for our mounting screws while the Aveo PosiStrobe

XP does not so it is a direct replacement unit. Not sure how one would mount

the Suntail unit.
