Really Cool LED Position Lights
I found what I think is probably the coolest positions lights in the whole universe. Jeff Bordelon has taken some very powerful LED lights and embedded them in a plastic housing that is highly mirrored. It reminds me of the tail lights on many vehicles today.
Here is a couple of photos of the housing that holds the LEDs
What strikes me about this design is its efficient use of actual lighting to do the job. Usually you see this array of LED lights that are attached to a visible circuit board. I find that this is somewhat unfinished looking. This is the first LED set-up that I think has a purposeful design. What a bonus that the inclusion of mirroring adds to the overall efficiency.
Here are a couple of pictures of Chad Jensen’s wing tips with Jeff’s LEDs installed.
I would like to say bravo to Jeff for his fine work. He is offering these for sale on his web site http://www.jeffsrv-7a.com I think that I am going to put these in my RV-10 and there is no doubt that they would look great in your airplane.
Keep building!!
