   Haha, yes, thanks. I already done yesterday. I have renamed the corresponding files in the Arrow, C152 and P3D Effects folders to "fx_strobe_LM". (because original Lockheed Martin file)
But is the same result.

	Now, here's an easy fix to keep your AI Lights Reborn alive with the C152 or PA-28: 1. Open the C-152 (or PA-28) aircraft.cfg and find the LIGHTS section. Rename fx_strobe to e.g. fx_strobe_jf, like this : [LIGHTS] //Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit light.0 = 3, 0.12, -16.75, 2.58, fx_navred light.1 = 3, 0.12, 16.75, 2.58, fx_navgre light.2 = 1, -15.47, 0.00, 4.95, fx_beacon light.3 = 2, -0.05, -16.85, 2.58, fx_strobe_jf light.4 = 2, -0.05, 16.85, 2.58, fx_strobe_jf light.5 = 5, 5.30, 0.00, -0.23, fx_landing light.6 = 6, 5.30, 0.00, -0.23, fx_landing 2. Now go to your P3D effects folder and do a copy and paste on fx_strobe.fx. You should now have created fx_strobe - COPY.fx . Rename this to fx_strobe_jf.fx . That's it :) Mike

	Hi Michael, thanks ! You have found the problem, indeed I had that Addon installed and after uninstalling the problem is gone. Now, interestingly only the C152 is affected from it. I don't see it in all my other planes. It's quite a nice Addon. I will mention it in the AVSIM forum of the AI lights author, maybe a solution can be found. Thanks again ! Mike

	Hi Mike, maybe you have installed the tool "AI Lights Reborn Free Edition"? I also had this strong flash of strobe lights. After I disabled the tool, everything was back to normal.
	Happy Landings, Michael

	Hi Martyn, Ok, done. I have recorded a short video of the effect, but it was too big to attach to the ticket. Thanks Mike

	Hi Mike, We tried to reproduce this issue but none of the development team or testing team could manage it. Can you submit a support ticket and we'll send you a modified file to test? Thanks Martyn

	I know I have mentioned this somehere already, but couldn't find it. Can't remember having ever noticed this in the real plane, but it's a long time ago. Anyway, the flashing/blinking reflection of the strobes in the panel is hard to stand for a long time. Maybe I notice it more due to a 43" 4k monitor. Am I the only one ? Is there anything that can be done ? Make it configurable ? Mike
