Polaris Light Bulb Replacement

Polaris is a 9W LED bulb replacement for incandescent position light bulbs that provide the forward red and green navigation lights. Polaris is a warm white LED that matches the spectrum of the incandescent bulb that is replaces so that the color produced through the red and green lenses is equivalent and meets the FAR and TSO color requirements for aviation red and green. The light output meets or exceeds that of the bulb it replaces.

AeroLEDs offer high efficiency, direct replacement LED lighting for hundreds of aircraft. AeroLEDs are light weight, shock and vibration resistant, and have low drag. LED lighting easily lasts over 50,000 hours of continuous operation with no reduction by on/off cycles, with up to 80% reduced power consumption. The built-in Pulse Mode and synchronization blink the light on and off at a 1Hz rate when power is applied to the Pulse Mode power wire. Higher color temperature provides superior visibility and clarity.

Increased Safety

AeroLEDs lights allow you to comply with the latest FAA recommendations (Operation Lights On) regarding extended use of taxi, landing and anti-collision lights without fear of reduced light performance or life. They all feature optimized light color (6500k sunlight equivalent) for proven superior air-to-air recognition. The landing lights also feature a pulsed recognition light mode. 

Reduced Power Consumption

High efficiency LED lights use less than 1/3 the power of halogen bulbs. They significantly reduce the load on the electrical system and they will not dim due to low voltage typical of low RPM final approaches when you need them most!

Longer Life - Zero Maintenance

All AeroLEDs products are designed to be a "lifetime buy." They last over 50,000 hours when properly installed and do not degrade with on/off cycles. They are extremely rugged and hardened against all kinds of electrical damage, shock and vibration. 

Pulse Recognition Mode

AeroLEDs lights with pulse mode (or wig-wag mode) greatly improve safety by alternately blinking the left then right light once per second. This dramatically increases your aircraft visibility to prevent both air and ground collisions. At least one 36HX or 46HX series light must be installed to enable pulse mode.
