Re-thinking the landing light.

After a bit of time between coming up with the landing light, and getting ready to install it, I’ve decided to re-work the light and lens to what you see here.

I took apart one of the triple-LED flashlights I mentioned way back at the start of this blog, and made it into a more compact unit. The original had the LED’s spaced about a 1/2″ apart. Now, they’re as tight together as possible. Should look more like a single light, rather than 3 separate ones. Also, makes the mounting a bit easier with a smaller unit.
Sure is a blindingly bright light!

Note: the white you see around the perimeter of the light is glue that hasn’t dried yet. Should all be clear when finished.
