Excellent product, with excellent support from Whelen. Build quality far exceeded what I was expecting. I anticipate investing in the wingtip strobes as well
Whelen OR36S1W Red/White Split LED Beacon 14 VDC 3.75 Upper
It goes without saying that WAT is very proud of this beacon. This unit replaced a traditional strobe beacon on a 73 Piper PA28 235 that was starting to go bad. After a bit of research, I decided on this unit. I am pleased with the brightness and lower power consumption. Not to mention, zero noise on the comm radio. installation was easy and the unit fit perfectly.
Whelen OR36S1W Red/White Split LED Beacon 14 VDC 3.75 Upper
Surprisingly easy to modify an older Grimes strobe mount to fit the 3.75 version on a 63 year old Cessna. Very light and bright. I hope it has the same longevity.
Whelen OR36S1W Red/White Split LED Beacon 14 VDC 3.75 Upper
Bright light, works as advertised. The fact that Whelen charges what it does is insane. It probably cost 10$ to manufacture.

Whelen OR36S1W Red/White Split LED Beacon 14 VDC 3.75 Upper
Awesome beacon! I installed on my Cessna 150G. So bright, I know I will not be missed for sure. almost to bright for night flying though, it flashes inside the cabin. But not to bad.
Great Product Five stars

It is 100 candle power.
The larger size is 3.75" per the technical drawings. We have updated the web page to reflect the correct size.
They are self contained. As for the replacement we would need to know what is currently installed on the aircraft. SA800EA is an STC number that covers several lights.
The Whelen Orion 360 series is FAA TSO approved for certified aircraft.
They all flash at the same time.
If the aircraft is 1967 through 1977 and has factory fin cap, then yes it will work. 1978 is the transition year from 12 to 28 volt, so you will need to verify voltage.
The TSO should make it just a logbook entry/minor alteration.
The flash rate of the 01-0772010-50 will be 45 +/- 4 flashes per minute. In regards to synchronization the LED beacon will flash at its own rate and will go in and out of phase with the remainder of the strobes as there is no means of syncing this product.
Per Whelen: You would need to measure the diameter of the current beacon. It is likely either 3.75 or 2.6".
