Default Anyone use GS-AIR strobe/LED nav lights?

Howdy,

Does anyone have experience with GS-AIR combination LED position lights /
strobe unit, and the double flash stobe driver? Are the airworthy inspections
passing with these units?

I have no experience with these, but the LED model looks awesome! Very
light-weight and low-drag design could be real nice. I had trouble with the
link you gave, but found them at www.gs-air.com

It seems they were designed to run with the triple flash strobe system which
weighs only 15 oz, compared to the double flash which is 2.5 lbs! I am sure
that either would drive them though.

Thanks for the lead on this!!

A strobe bulb doesnt know, or care, how many flashes its being given.
You could hook it up to a quad flash just as easily. All flashes are the
same intensity and duration. By sequencing them in rapid, close
succession, the strobe is perceived to "dwell" for the duration of the
series.
