Just an opinion:
Floats
Pros: Inexpensive, simple
Cons: Moving parts (you will eventually have to replace them)
Linearity varies with tank geometry
Capacitance
Pros: No moving parts (you'll probably never have to remove the tank to
fix/replace a sensor)
Accurate-you can calibrate the linearity
Cons: Expensive (EI gauge is $450), slight inaccurices with AVgas versus
MOgas
Added complexity

THIS IS NOT "SPAM", but from my research I did for my
RV-8A which I am building.
--------------- ------------- ------------
SAVE YOURSELF hundreds of hours of research time and
building time, by using the comprehensive
"Guide to Painting & Corrosion Control of Aluminum and
Composite Aircraft"
This book took over 600+ hours of research time by me,
a fussy RV-8A Builder. Contains 64 pages of the
latest, practical information - summarized and
gathered from MIL Standards, Paint Shops, Builders
like you (what worked or didn't), Airframe Mfgs, etc.
Covers products from PP&G, Dupont, Sherwin W'ms,
Sterling, Poly Fiber, Deft, Randolph Paints, PRC De
Soto, US Paints, Aircraft Finishing Systems, 3M, etc.
Some of the Topics covered in the 30 Sections are:
* Aircraft Paints vs Auto Paints and Other
Considerations
* Corrosion Control
* Spray Guns - selecting, adjusting, using
and painting problems
* Brushes / Rollers used with Primers &
Paints
* Prep Methods for Painting - Fiberglass,
Steel and Aluminum
* Epoxy Primers for Aluminum - MIL &
Commercial, Solvent & Water Reducible
* Primers for Fiberglass & Steel
* Wash Primers & Self Etching Primers
* Other Primers - Zinc Chromate,Zinc Oxide,
Enamel
* Paint Types: MIL & Non MIL Polyurethanes
Enamel Types
Acrylics - Lacquers & Enamels
* Acid Etch / Conversion Coatings (Alodine)
* Selecting a Paint Shop
* 3M Cleaning Pads, Liquid Cleaner
compatibility
* Paint Booths and their Construction
* References - MIL Standards & Tech Orders
* Directory of Aircraft Paint Mfgs, Distrib-
utors, etc. E-Mail addresses, phone
numbers, Application Notes
YOUR AIRPLANE is judged by it's Paint Job and it is
costly too, so have the latest "Information" in order
to make good decisions. Contains plenty of "Do's" and
"Don'ts" that save time, money and frustration.

Anyone know a source for an LED bright enough to use as a cabin/baggage light?
Would consider adapting a bicycle or camping light.
Thanks
