Want to replace my old rotating beacon with led strobe

[carusoam]

If you look, there are two locations  for strobes.  One on top and one on the bottom of the fuselage. There is probably a cover on one of those locations.  The bottom one is pretty hard to casually notice...

aircraft Spruce probably has some covers...

Best regards,

Is there a simple cover plate that can be purchased to cover the coffee grinder hole?

You can easily make one.

Also if you do make one, ensure that it is adequately sealed to the outside world as not to introduce water into the empennage. For the windows and cabin skins fuel access panel sealant is used with good success.

So, nobody has tried an LED bulb as a drop in replacement for the old 7079B-12 bulb? I have one that is bad and I guess it's time to replace both.

I don't think there's a drop in LED bulb thats nearly bright enough

Yes, there is a replacement for the old style Grimes/Whelen reflector bulbs.
