Deems,



Very helpful web site you have!



I've been to the archives and no help there. That search engine sure isn't 

Google



Deems--Your web site gives a link to Jeff"s LED nav lights.



I don't see any contact info for Jeff on that site.



Second, what voltage are these lights(Your Nav lights). Will the 14v lights 

run on 12v system?



I see so many LEDs that are either 14V or 28 volt.  without revisiting the 

12, 28 volt issue.  What are people using  if they are a 12V system to drive 

a 14 volt LED lights or 28V lights.



Thanks,



JOhn G.

You can contact Jeff Bordelon (at)  RV-7A(at)austin.rr.com  ;they are 12/14V 

and only draw a small amount of current (< 1 amp). Re 12V / 14V: I'm 

definitely NOT the electron guru, and somebody else should jump in here 

and provide a definitive answer, but they are essentially the same 

system and operate from the same battery/alternator source. Battery 

outputs 14.5 v when fully charged, there is some loss in the wiring due 

to wire resistance etc. You may want to get Bob Nuckols book available 

on his web site and subscribe to the Matronics aero-electric list as 

well. Bob provides free consulting via the list on a time available 

basis, Some of the stuff is more detailed than I want or care about, but 

it is a very valuable resource. In his book he explains all about the 

12/14v and 24/28v systems and why they are referred to the way they are.
