It was an easy install on my 54 c170b. The old whelen strobe had 3 wires and the nav light wire was there also so there was no need to add any wiring. The lights are perfect and bright. A pilot could not see my strobes at 2 miles on a clear day but they seem bright on the ground. A warning sticker for the strobe would have been a nice thing to include and is recommended/required due to the intensity of the strobe. Overall, very satisfied. Removed 2 pounds and some amps from the plane! No noticeable r/f noise either.

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.

Any product eligibility information provided here is based on general application guides and we recommend always referring to your specific aircraft parts manual, the parts manufacturer or consulting with a qualified mechanic.
Some Cessnas require a wingtip adapter. You will need to verify with your A&P to determine if your aircraft requires one. Example adapter part number is 11-18768.
Part number 11-18776 would work. It is 20awg 4 conductor shielded wire.
The Orion 650E outputs 400 effective candela.
650E is only for embedded wingtip designs meaning that they depend on the aircraft's exterior lens to keep them protected.
The Orion 650 outputs 150 effective candela.
