Does anyone on list have a method to test a strobe power supply and strobe tube. I am looking for a way to detect whether the tube or the power supply is defective when a system fails. I have seen a tester for sale at an aviation supply house, but am looking for a way to test with readily available equipment.

Fix your strobe the same way most aviation repair shops do......just keep replacing parts until it works. Smile

I built mine with a power pack and strobe light in each wing.

As long as both don't fail the same way at the same time - I can check one side with the other. I have extra light sets as I have two sets of tips...one set is configured as fuel tanks and the other will be set up as storage lockers......

Best I can come up with.....
