I want to know if anyone has experience or an idea if you can use a cheap camera flashlight to produce a cheap strobe light.
I am currently working with nav light circuits for my bell 222 using a 9V battery, and I am using ultrabright leds.
The ultrabright leds unfortunately only have a 15 degree angle of vision and I was wondering if anybody has another idea, or where can I find better and cheap lights.

I know curtek systems has some "wide angle leds", but can't seem to find a website that sells the leds.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
