HID lights are great for being seen but recently my left wing tip HID ceramic block and filament broke away from the glass reflector and flopped around the wing tip still live during a five hour X country scorching the floor and through adjacent strobe wire rendering strobe power supply US. Steve of PlaneLights/Rigidindustries has replaced bulbs and not aware of any other instance. Possibly a one off manufacture fault or differential expansion. They sure get hot. Intend fashioning a restraining system in case of recurrence.and otherwise very happy with the plane. 125 hours operating out of short country strip in last 8 months and grateful for all the Lists knowledge.
