I was just thinking that there was going to be an epidemic of people going blind ... :-) Arfa I have a lighting fixture for you, about 235 W LED, something like 8,000 lumens, meant for roadway lighting. And there are even bigger brighter ones. ?-) |

I am going to build a 3 way bulb current limiter. Right now I have to change bulbs depending on the expected current draw. "130V 100W aviation lamps"? Why would you not want to use LEDS here? Leif -- Husk kørelys bagpå, hvis din bilfabrikant har taget den idiotiske beslutning at undlade det. I was thinking that. LEDs would have to be more reliable I would have thought, and in a place where reliability is of paramount importance, surely, that would be a good thing ?? As to my comments about the 75 watt LED, I was being facetious. As in an LED fixture that consumed 75 watts would be blinding. I have some 10 watt white LEDs, and you don't even want to look at them obliquely, let alone anything like straight on ... Arfa I'm not sure there is an FAA spec for LED lampage. There are. Also USGC standards for LED navigation lights. Strobes are legal if you turn them way up in the daytime, or paint your structure with alternating white and orange stripes. Still, these are the lights that don't flash and they are built to last a long time. Killer bulbs. Yep. and i have also seen navigation lighting fixtures that included automated lamp changers. The 250 Watt beacons are the lights that flash. They have fresnel lenses and other beam forming requirements. There's a video of Bob Silliman changing a beacon on the Empire State BUilding on YouTube. |
