Tuning the BoomBeam HID Light
The BoomBeam is shipped “tuned” for the Long Range beam pattern. This is a landing
beam pattern and is great for most pilots. The BoomBeam can also be tuned for the
Standard beam pattern. This is a great “all around” light beam pattern and is best for
aircraft that need more localized light for taxi operations.
Specifications:
Long Range:
255,000 Candela @ 12.2 degree beam angle
Standard:
114,000 Candela @ 20.2 degree beam angle
The process for tuning your light is quite simple:
1. Place the BoomBeam face down on a clean padded cloth to prevent damage to the
lens.
2. Note that the connector faces the short side of the rectangular reflector
3. Carefully remove the three screws from the back of the light assembly and remove
the lamp. Take care not to touch the lamp glass or the surface of the reflector.
4. Add the small round tuning plate (LSM-500-358-13) and the flexible gasket (3077A)
as shown below in the counter-bored seat for the lamp over the existing flexible
gasket. Add the large tuning plate (LSM-500-395-7) over the back of the reflector.
5. Re-assemble your BoomBeam light.
6. Congratulations!!! You have just converted your Long Range Boom Beam to a
Standard Boom Beam.
