I bought the Whelen lighting kit (system 6) from Van's over a year ago. I've heard that the power supplies are not designed to sit and not be used, so I hooked it up to my power supply to check it out.
For the first 30 seconds or so, the tail strobe and wing strobes alternate like they should. After about 30 seconds, the tail strobe also flashes when the wing strobes do (so it's flashing almost constantly). The tail strobe also gets extremely hot (I assume because it's flashing more than it should be).
Anyone else ever have a problem like this? Is it a problem with my tail strobe or the power supply?
