Big / Little Pair of
'Lifetime' LEDs Can Even Check Inside Cylinders
Approach Aviation, the folks with the splendid Educated
Owner series of owner/pilot "self-help" videos, is releasing
their new, LED Micro-Flex and LED Mega-Flex Lights for aircraft
owners and pilots at the AOPA Convention. These new super-bright
flexible lights are perfect for a hundred different tasks in
cockpit illumination and aircraft maintenance. Their small head
size coupled with strong yet flexible necks, allows them to be used
for many specialized applications including cylinder illumination
through spark plug holes.
The LED Micro-Flex Light is 6" long -- small enough to clip
anywhere, and put the light where you need it. For cockpit use, it
can clip to shirt pocket or headset. For maintenance use, it can
clip to any available location, to shine a powerful light in
cramped quarters.
The LED Mega-Flex Light
(right) is 19 1/2” long and contains a lens-focused beam
to provide powerful, clear light in critical locations. The beam
head is small enough to fit through the spark plug hole in most
aircraft cylinders for inspection purposes. It can also be an
excellent addition to borescope applications, adding light where it
is needed most.
Top quality construction for reliability when you need it:
Designed and engineered in Germany, the LED Micro-Flex and LED
Mega-Flex lights utilize the power of opto-electronic technology
with High Intensity LED-"Light-Emitting Diodes" for a super-bright
light that can be used for up to 100 hours of light without
a battery change. They feature stainless steel exteriors
and focused lens power beams; and they are shock proof, water
resistant and cold burning. Batteries are included and replacement
batteries can be found at any photo shop, or electronics store.
"The new LED Micro-Flex
(right) and LED Mega-Flex lights are an excellent addition to any
pilot's flight bag. Whether you are looking for that dropped screw,
or just looking to read those charts better, these lights make the
job that much easier!," said Jeff Simon, President of Approach
Aviation.
Introductory Retail price for the new LED Micro-Flex Light is
$24.95 and the new LED Mega-Flex Light is $39.95. Both lights come
in attractive gift boxes and batteries are included.
