LED landing light
I had HID landing lights but they shattered when taxining over rough dirt taxiway at a campground- basically bouncing caused bulb to break. I looked at options and ended up making a LED landing light. The lumens are about as bright as the HID but I haven't put an optic to channel the 125 degree lights to 60-70 degree, regardless, I used the same wingtip lights and one 3X star @ 350Ma- bulb is a cree XHP35. If I could figure out how to post pictures I would so I'll post an e-mail to RV-10 Matronics list with the full review and pictures.
For $40 it is worth installing. The light is limited somewhat but it covers the complete area forward and to the side of the lights, a really good taxi light without the optics, I landed in pitch darkness at a remote airport and the lights covered the runway just fine for me. One of the folks at the campsite said he could see the lights " way out there"..
