It is very compact and slim. I bought it expecting it to be MUCH larger than it is. Fits nicely on the overhead console of my Cessna 150. Running it on battery power for now until my AME can connect it to ship’s power.

This cabin light was amazing did my first night flight and it was just fantastic to see my gauges It is a safety feature so if you lose electricity this will still run on batteries for 19 hours It will get you back safe and sound

Installed in a 68 Piper Cherokee 180 and works great! Easy to wire it to the planes 12 volt power and ground so the batteries are only used as a back up. The dimmer feature is also very nice to set for various conditions easily in flight and lights up the whole panel area with easy to see all the non lit switches and controls when needed. Should have purchased this sooner!

Great unit. I’ve told everyone I know who owns a plane to get this lighting unit as aSoon as possible. I prefer green as for me it provides better overall lighting and you can Epstein the instrument better with less eye strain. Received great service from Aircraft Spruce as usual making your company is my GO TO place when I need various parts. Keep up the great service.

Ive used this for four years in my turbo-arrow. It works great. The green light illuminates the instrument panel much better than the original red light.

I looked for quite a while before purchasing have jus received and not installed but did a trial test in the aircraft tonight on batteries I purchased the Red as all my other lighting was that colour and I thought changing would be distraction. The forward dash light as others have said is very bright when turned to full and the map lights look like they will be just whats needed. The 12 volt connection looks very simple indeed.

Ive flown many dark nights with this little gem & have been surprised how long the batteries that come with it last. The panel in my 150 is lit up very well even turned way down. I picked the green as what the inventor recommended to me saying it made the gauges brighter than the red. I am very satisfied.
