But.....red light lights really should not be used by pilots using VFR/IFR/Area Charts maps because the red lights can drown out the meganta/maroone colored items on a sectional chart. Also, miltary airways are in brownish-red color and they too can be hard to see with a red light. Military Operations Areas are also shown in magenta. White lights MUST be used in the cockpit so there are no mistakes made. At least for me, it could mean getting shot down in some places I fly to. Just like the Russian's did to the Korean 747
And I also fly the 747, maps in Asia and the Middle East are very detailed and they use heavy reds, magentas and maroone-like colors.Just an FYI.

Do you carry anything for the doors. One of mine went out and you sent me a bulb that you had left over from swaping out over to LEDs. Bulb works but just isn't that bright. I replaced the bulb with another one too and it still isn't as bright as the other one. I wouldn't mind replacing them with some LEDs
