LoPresti's HID Lighting System Offers Demonstrable Advantages Long overdue to Aero-TV screens everywhere is this interesting story about an innovative lighting system currently offered by the ever innovative LoPresti family. Called 'Boom Beams', LoPresti claims that their "Boom Beam HID lighting systems improve lighting in most cases by more than 500% and consists of a power supply, shielded high voltage wire harness, plug in HID lamp, mounting hardware, and your choice of lens reflector assemblies. " For round reflectors, LoPresti offers Landing, Taxi and Intermediate beam widths. The Landing beam has an exceedingly long range and is a 10 degree circle, (stock sealed beams are generally 10 wide by 5 high), the Taxi beam will flood the immediate area and is 55 degrees wide by 25 high, and the Intermediate also has a very long range but has the advantage of a much larger “foot print” on the runway, (our recommended light for single HID systems) and is a 17 degree circle. We also have rectangular reflectors for wing tip applications. These systems are available in 14 and 28 volt versions with pricing from $948. The Boom Beam system is FAA/PMA’d and STC’d for over 68,000 aircraft and can be field approved on virtually every other aircraft. The Boom Beam system is available in 3 widths, a Taxi Lighting system offering 54° width, an Intermediate system offering 17° width, and a Landing Light configuration offering 9° width. The Boom Beam program offers lighting systems in varying diameters and shapes.
