PIREP Aveo Posistrobe CP

[DrDave]

This is a tail position/strobe light. The cost of this unit is significantly less than the Whelen A500 + strobe power supply + install kit. The Aveo was $611 to my door. This price includes tax and shipping. I had to pay a state sales tax since I bought it locally. The Whelen strobe system for the tail position is $208 for the A500 combo light, $460 for the A490A 14-28 strobe power supply, $42 for the CA kit 32 install kit. The Whelen kit comes in at $711. For a fair comparison the Aveo is $549 before tax and shipping.

I have the Whelen setup as listed above on my 150. It's quite bright but not as bright as the Aveo.

The other cool part is that I got to run all new wiring in the tailboom. I eliminated multiple connectors in the process.
