I purchased the Whelen tail light a few years ago and for some reason the NAV light quit working. I contacted Whelen Aerospace and they replaced it without question. I will never shop anywhere else for my aircraft lights.
Whelen strobe is round-shaped whereas factory one is oval. A&P had to use some sealant to complete install of tail strobe. Also, factory tail strobe has no wire for white light, only strobe light.

Now fitted to a PA30C, excellent. Did need to increase the size of the hole in the rudder cap with a deburr tool, quite easily done. Replaced the old Whelen A500 strobe/posn vertical mount 14v.
Great Product- Easy to Install! Recommend to everyone to get more See and Avoid for Safe flying!
Good Value and looks great.

Per Whelen, the Orion 500 Series Lights are designed to be mounted on the tail area, vertical stabilizer / rudder etc facing aft. However, the mounting screw holes are at 12 oclock and 6 oclock, not 3 and 9, so a minor modification will be necessary.
Yes, the Orion 500 series (11-11975) is a LED replacement for the strobe style (11-03717).
We recommend shielded wire, the size will depend on the voltage of your system and the length of the wire.
No, these lights are intended for tail mounting only. For wingtip see the OR 650 series 11-11966.
No, a separate power supply is not necessary to run these LED lights.
No, if does not come with an 8130, but you can request it at the time of order for an additional cost.
It is recommended to run a separate power wire for each function. This allows the pilot to turn off the strobe function when it has the potential to interfere with ground operations and other pilots.
No. Shielded wire is not necessary for the Orion product line. Unshielded is acceptable.
It has a steady burn and flash(strobe.)
It will fit. It has the same footprint as a single bulb tail light.
