Pascal From: Rick Lark Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2010 7:05 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: LED Nav Lights Robin I've been thinking of buying LED nav and strobes from either Aveo or Aero Leds. Their products certainly are nice but pricey. I'm sure I could fabricate the nav leds, but with your application, are the strobes in your pictures the standard strobes we all have seen/used for the last 15 years, or something else?

After having spent $220 on my first set of LED=99s for the -10 (which still required modifications http://painttheweb.com/painttheweb/rv-10/Lights_LEDHID.aspx ) I decided to fabricate some Red/Green Nav lights out of Auto parts. The lights were purchased on eBay for well under $10.00 each. The sockets were maybe $3.00 each and the Red Green Mirrored plexi was about $8.00 delivered. I think they turned out great. They are definitely brighter than my -10 Nav lights and many people comment on how noticeable my -10 nav lights are on the ground and in flight. Here are a few photos of the Nav lights installed. Note these are older Vans wing tips so we had to cut away the corners and replace them with aero tips.

The lights really look good, I've looked in the archive but can't find any previous notes regarding the lights you used. A ebay search came up with 200,000 hits, can you give us some light descriptions or part numbers to help a brother builder out? I see on ebay white and red LED lights but no Green. Do you relie on the green and red mirrored plexi for the colour or are green bulbs available? Can you point us in the right direction for the coloured plexi? Is the second bulb in your installation a strobe? If so are these roll your own as well? Thanks in advance, Terry. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robin Marks To: rv10-list@matronics.com ; rv-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2010 2:03 AM Subject: RV-List: LED Nav Lights For some time I have mentioned the =93discount=94 way I was going about adding LED Nav lights to my RV-8A build.

I've gone this route http://www.jeffsrv-7a.com/LEDPROJECT1.htm after seeing Deems' installation. And here's how they turned out... http://rv10.stephensville.com/2010/05/10/wingtip-nav-lights/ And here's Deems' pics: http://www.mykitlog.com/users/display_log.php?user=DeemsDavis&project=41&category=1387&log=10822&row=1 Jeff is great to work with, but not sure if he is still producing them. I'd shoot him an email if you are interested. -Sean #40303 fuse side skins On 9/12/10 11:28 AM, Terry Mortimore wrote: > Hi Robin, I apologize for not following this thread as closely as I > should have. > The lights really look good, I've looked in the archive but can't find > any previous notes regarding the lights you used. > A ebay search came up with 200,000 hits, can you give us some light > descriptions or part numbers to help a brother builder out? > I see on ebay white and red LED lights but no Green.
