THAT would be fun on short final to a dark runway!

Dan,


The air temperature inside a wing at night in flight will never get
anywhere close to 140F, so it won't happen on short final at night...
plus, it would take at least 45 minutes to an hour even in a 140F
ambient for the unit to get hot enough to self-protect.


Just kidding you, Dean. You have an interesting product; sorry I missed
seeing it at OSH.

Good luck with it.

Hi Dan,

Thanks, I wasn't sure... posts don't carry tone of voice so subtle
humor is often lost in translation! Hence the many flame wars that go
on in usenet space!
