| Subject: | LED Landing lights |
Hi Gang
Whilst the leading edges are off I was thinking of how much power the 100W Landing
and Taxi lights use.
Has anyone seen a LED replacement globe that would fit in the Standard Zenith Landing
/taxi Lights holder? They must use way less power.. My Jab,s Alt puts out
20 Amps total and that would be almost total output in just those 2 items.
Chris.

Know what you mean Chris. The rotax 912 alternator is the same size. I've resolved
to live with it until I'm flying. I'll look at it again then....Geoff

I did it with the bottom row riveted and it did produce the same result as
if I had taken 3 hours to remove the gear ,rivets, and brake lines. The
access hole allows you to clamp the angles in place then drill. Not very hard
at all.

There is a good substitute for incandescents. Mike McKinsey found an LED
light of about 4 inch diameter, (don't know how many LEDs, but a BUNCH)
at a truck stop. Truckers use them for a worklight at the fifth wheel.
I have no idea what the cost or current draw is, but he has two
installed, and they seem to throw a good beam of light. I'm gonna have
to start checking the truck stops.

See if you can get a picture of the installed bulbs. I would like to see
them installed.

| Subject: | Re: LED Landing lights |
Both the landing lights and the strobes seems like something that
could be easily made. LED circuits tend to be really simple. I've
searched online and the usual suspect web sites and haven't found
anything. I'm wondering if we have any EE's in the group that might
be able to design something. Those $700 LED strobes look to me like
something you could build for $50 in parts and a few hours of time.
Of course if I really knew anything about it, I'd design it myself :-(.

My ability to take a digital picture, get it into the computer, and then
actually append it to an e-mail is roughly the equivalent of a hog
reading a wristwatch. But I've seen his installation, and he has them
side by side in a single window in the left wing, and said he used the
mounting piece provided in the kit. It looks very professional. If he
knows from digital pitchers and all like that there, I'll ask him to do
it.

There is a vote taking place on Zenith.aero to get a sense of what people
would want the new nomenclature for modified 601s to be. A link on the main
page takes you to the voting.
You may want to take advantage of the opportunity.
