Gerry,

If its on the roof light I assume it lights the whole of the cockpit, so
does it give enough light to see the instruments?? I guess it must but I
cant imagine how?

Ferg Id be interested in some info on the LEDs you mentioned please.

Regards

Kev T

I'm mounting a Red LED Spotlight (Aircraft Spruce) on Roof Panel to
cover for poor daylight conditions.
12V supply needed and about $45. It' floods' Instrument Panel with
subtle light

Gerry
