I replaced my aged FS 4400 with this nice inexpensive easily installed unit. It works beautifully and is extremely bright.
It is possible to short the bulb out so it stops working?
Had to replace the fist one that I had like this because it burnt out. Delivery was speedy considering the Post Office was holding rotating strike job action. We will see how this one lasts when I hook it up in the spring.
For the price, okay. Not the highest quality, but I am sure it will give me years of use on our Ragwing. Nice and bright and I replaced the lens with the red one for very little money
Working well will have to see how it work in rain and if it takes in moisture and develop condensation like my old unit. It is not as bright as my old unit but it takes very little power compare to the 30 years old tech that I bought from Aircraft & Spruce also. I hope it does not cause interference with my radio, my old unit was a problem trigering the squelch on few portable that I try in my homebuilt.
Not as bright as I expected, may be mid summer is a bad time to check brightness. Works well other wise.
Per the supplier: No, this is a flashing beacon. It does not have the mechanism to rotate the light source.
This product is packaged in a 4-1/4 inch square box.
11-07769 uses Xenon flash tubes rather than LEDs. Since during operation it is not constantly on, it does not get hot at all.
