I bought this kit after pricing out the Wheelen LEDs and realizing that's a grip of change for some new lights.
What's in the box:
Left and right lamps, tail, two rubber gaskets, dielectric grease packet and new oversized lens'. All bulbs are BA15 style bases. Rated power is 67 watts for all three bulbs. I don't know what the fillament bulbs draw, but I'd be willing to bet 67w is in the range of one standard bulbs draw.
The bulbs are extremely easy to replace on the plane. A Philips head screwdriver was all I needed.
The bulbs have two modes, stead for night ops and flashing for day. They do not sync, but the flash is enough to get traffics attention. I had traffic call me out on approach today at two miles which is unusual when I had the flash going.
A real step up from fillament bulbs and the brightness is hard to tell in the pics. They are much brighter in person.
The bulbs are TSO-C30c. The price was $295 plus freight with three other small items came to $10 USPS.
If you are interested in a higher state of visual recognition during the day or night, I reccomend this kit. It's cheaper than one Wheelen LED and is adequate for those on a budget.
