Beyond the pricing shock, it works like a champ. I cleaned up the old grimes socket and it installed tight and fit perfectly under the nav lens on my very old cessna. If it lasts as long as claimed, ill be super happy.

Hopefully the last navigation light Ill replace. One nav light was out, so I got a pair to replace the filament edition. Installation was a cinch, theyre super bright, even behind the colored lens and very cool to the touch after hours of flight...as LEDs should be. So far so good.

Plug-in replacement for wingtip incandescent bulbs. The only wrinkle for me (not the products fault) is that my wingtip lights were wired with reverse polarity (not the fault of the product!). Once I corrected that on my aircraft, the LED lamps worked exactly as expected. Couldnt be simpler to install and they work as advertised.

Blubs are direct replacement for the incandescent bulbs for my NAV lights in my R182. Im hopeful the LED blubs will greatly outlast the regular bulbs. Time will tell. They are much brighter.
