Hi Chris,=0A-=0AI have an HDS with a Jabiru 3300-that has been flying f
or five years.- I made my own holder for my Landing/Taxi lights, but I th
ink it is about the same as the "Standard Zenith light holder". I installed
standard aircraft Landing/Taxi lights (I think they were 4509's).--I a
lso had Aero flash Nav/Strobes (Double flash) with a tail light in the rudd
er. -When flying at night I-had to manage the use of the lights so I wo
ud not run the battery down.- If-I was doing touch & goes and then shut
the engine down there might not have been enough power to restart.=0A=0AI
changed to AEROLED's Landing/Taxi lights a couple of years ago. I had the o
ld lights setup like this (One for landing angled down and the other for ta
xi set level and angled to the right slightly).- I would use one light at
a time.- I set the Led's at the same angles but use both at the same tim
e.- They also have a WigWag feature built in.- I use the Landing light
switch to power both lights for landing and the Taxi light switch for WigWa
g.- They don't draw hardly any current and they are brighter.=0A-=0AI a
lso installed The AEROLED's Nav/Strobe/Tail light combo when they became av
ailable.- Even though I now had tail lights in the wings I also installed
aan LED tail light in the rudder.- Now I do not have to manage my power
consumption- like "The old days".=0A-=0ASee attached Pictures.=0A-=0A

I have played around with some of the LED,s on the market to try to do what you
are asking.
The major problem is that all of the drivers that are readily available put out
interference at about 120 meg and this is right were our radios are. All I could
get was a lot of noise (I also got some bright lights) but could not use them.
I have done the same as Al has done and bitten the bullet and installed the
Airoled wing flashers and the landing lights. I was lucky and got mine last
year at Oshkosh cheap.
The only difference is that I have put one light in each wing
