cts we tried the led & ended up removing them for the traditional beacon, the leds just wernt bright enough , maybe it was a poor selection on our part ..

we put one on ours just above the infeed i am afraid and ours was way too bright

then we tried a strobe and too bright so now just never use it

location is important

we have normal beacons on vehicles and LED flashers at rear of vehicle and they are well bright

the xenon bulb beacons are just as bright as the traditional rotators, but only use 0.5watt of power, instead of the massive drain. They are better than rotators when you have a long run of wire feed to the back of a trailer as the power isnt lost on the way through. Cant really explain it properly as I aint a sparky. Power drain is a issue at the moment with the small battery on the quad, so the xenon beacon does what I want:001_smile:
