I placed an order last week for 2 XeVision XeTREME LED landing lights (custom programmed to power up in strobe mode) that should be here in the next couple of weeks. I decided on dual landing lights because the current wing mounts are pretty narrow, so I don't think a wider "taxi" would work very well there, not to mention that taxi lights really need to be mounted as low as possible. I will be looking for a different taxi light solution if I start flying at night (maybe just reuse the WAT Parmetheus™ G3 Par 36 Taxi Light that is currently in the right wing with a landing gear mount).
I am in the process of selecting a 14 Vdc to 28 Vdc setup power supply to mount under the panel so I can use the existing 20 AWG wiring in the wings. There are cheap Chinese ones online and a few better-looking US-built ones built for marine use, which I am leaning towards.
