'WigWag' or 'Flasher' Units

One of the most important functions of Landing Lights is to improve your plane's visibility to other aircraft. Flashing the aircraft's lights by using a "wig-wag" circuit contributes significantly to "be-seen" visibility, especially when approaching and operating near an airport. There are several types of devices that can be added to accomplish this...

  • Duckworks True Solid State Flasher - Sold out!
    We are in the process of designing a replacement unit that is easier to install and can support 'single switch' operation. Stay tuned for more info later...
  • Update - Dec - prototypes are in testing now.
  • Switches
    To make installation of lights or flashers easier, we are putting together some switch and circuit suggestions.

 

REMEMBER: Not all wig-wags will work with HID lights!  Be sure you use one specifically designed for use with HID. We have heard of issues with the Perihelion Designs Flasher unit. That is a fine unit for controlling Halogen Lamps, and, we understand that they are working on a solution for HID Lamps as well.

  • Compatible with Halogen and HID Units
  • Small and lightweight
  • Alternating Flash at 1.1Hz Flash Rate
  • Capable of handling up to 300W (150W per side)
  • Mixing of HID and Halogen Lamps OK
