Damien Esmond in Florida (damien@aveoengineering.com) can give you the specifics, but essentially they redesigned the light module. Instead of the hexagonal lights, the went with five "cans" that hold the LEDs. Each can has a heat sink and there's a new type of cooling unit that's supposed to last a really long time. Also the taxi light is individually adjustable to account for taildragger installs. You can angle the taxi light downward to actually light the taxiway. They're also toying with the idea of being able to replace one can in each wingtip with a forward-looking camera and using software to stitch the two feeds together into a single flight video. This would be really cool for flight schools, as well as those of us who like to make flying videos.
I'm still waiting on mine, but they had a pair at AirVenture 2019 that I checked out and they look really cool. I just checked my camera and I can't believe I didn't get any pictures of them while I was there! When mine arrive I'll try to remember to get some pictures and post them here.
