[QUOTE="Boss Hoss, post: 446833, member: 4168"] I am in military aerospace and have been for 29 years. Have been on more development programs for different systems on the F-16 including variants, A-12, F22, C-130J, and the F35 aircraft than I can count. Many of these involved electrical design, development, qualification and ultimately production. Most recent issue that is remotely related to this is the Linier Discrete Interface Modules or LDIMS and the Actuator Interface Module AIM's that are deployed on the Raptor. There was a moisture problem and it took almost 2 years to get it solved. Conformal coatings are normally enough to remedy/prevent this and are used as a matter of course in our industry. If having certain components conformal coated in my next set of lights then so be it but I feel there will be a less expensive solution. Will be working that out next week when I get back to the office. The point is my young friend that there is a lot more to deploying a lighting assembly than just putting components together even if they are best of breed. Manufacturing processes and controls are also required to ensure that the ultimate product will reliability perform in the environment in which it was designed for. Is this clear enough for you or do I need to go into more detail? [/QUOTE]
