Default LED position and landing lights

Anyone willing to report on their experiences with LED lighting? Are they good enough for collision avoidance?

Thanks for any comments.

I have homebuilt LED Nav lights. I changed my strobes from basic strobe to LED strobes, which are incredibly visible as well. (Whelan Nav/Strobe combo)
