Nippernaper Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 Latest issue on my new-to-me '78 J is the left wing strobe. A&P confirmed the Hoskins power supply is still good, but the flash tube is bad. P/N 202814-5. I've been having a hard time trying to track down a replacement. Has anyone had to replace this flash tube, and if so, what did you use? I have a flat wing tip, like the earlier models. I saw the previous posts on the subject, but I think those related to the enclosed strobes used on the later wing tip style. I'd like to get a few years out of the current system, before swapping out for LEDs. Trying to keep the cash flow under control this first year; I'm expecting an expensive first annual There's a whelen product (a610?) and an aeroflash (073-0141, or maybe 073-0270?) that look like good candidates.

See below. I can take better pics for you tonight when I get home if you are interested. Jim I'll take you up on the offer, and PM you shortly!
