There are two (2) types of amber lights, in two (2) different quantities.

1) Panel Mount Selectable Steady/Flashing LED, 12V, qty. 2500. Every single robot has carried one since 2007. I don't expect that that will change this year, given that quantity. You'll pick it up 1/7/2011 with the KOP.

2) Control Tower Stack Light, Amber Steady, qty 14. Not enough for all 19 fields, but almost certainly enough to equip the two new fields, replace that part on any field needing it, and still have a few spares lying around.

The other Control Tower Stack Light quantities indicate that they're for the two new fields; there also are a few other items associated with them that seem to be in spare/new field quantities.
