I remain on my search for the 'ideal' landing light.... In doing so I've checked out the Pilot PL1062C, PL-1055C and the PL-1057C, haven't tested the PL-4040C yet. The . What I've found that the beam dispersion of the units I have tried (all used the 12V 55W halogen bulbs) has been WAY too broad. As a reference point I used the landing bulb (GE #4509) from my '172. Its specs are: 100W (Electical power consumption), 110,000 candlepower (light output) rated at 25 hours operation. Its beam dispersion is 12 horiz x 6 vert.
