Looks good, easy install, able to use existing strobe wiring and remove the strobe power supply. Brighter too.

Whelen Orion 6502R 28V Wingtip Pta Red
Direct replacement for my older wingtip lights on my 65 Comanche. These enabled me to remove the strobe power supplies in the wingtip shaving off 2.5 lbs of weight. They look sharp and are really bright. The price is high but that’s the case with aviation and quality products. This was a great project to give my plane a facelift and reduce electrical load. Install time if just removing the old one and the old strobe power supply was about an hour a side. I ran a sync wire from wing tip to wing tip that added another couple hours but it was worth it.
Great pruduct, highly reccomend. Fits same footprint and nutplate pattern of my old Whelen strobe/nav light. Got rid of old high-voltage stobe power supply, saving 1.1lbs per wing. Only slight issue was the new strobe baseplate is flat, whereas the old strobe had a slight cavity so it would sit against the slight curvature if my wingtip. Solved by fabricating gasket from 1/8 foam material, Could probably also have just used proseal under baseplate too.
