Wings/Lighting: Landing lights ordered.

Here are the posts pertaining to nav-strobe lights.

• 12-Aug-13, initial thoughts
• 17-Aug-13, lenses cut 
• 7-Jan-14, wiring completed
• 2-Nov-16, panel control circuit
• 30-Apr-17, mounts fabricated 
• 16-May-18, first night flight

Go here to see the wiring of these lights into my airframe.

Decided to indeed go with a pair of the AveoMaxx Hercules 30.  Sure, they'll probably be cheaper later when I'm ready to fly, but they'll be easier to fit with the wing lacking the tips and bottom skins.  Incidentally, if you're considering these lights too, contact the company directly.  They may be able to get you a much better price than the distributors.  Shipped, the pair were $1,795.50.
