|
|
| Does anyone out there have the 2 or 4 led deck lights fitted. Was going to buy 2 sets of 2 LEDs but don't want to be not enough. Happy to pay for the 4 version but thought might be over kill. Looking at lighting up deck of a Reefrunner. Thanks in advance for replies |

I have a pair of 72446w on my boat and light up well If doing again I would either use the 4led version or even Better run 3 of the 2 led units with one in the middle wired separately
One of the new light bars would be great too. 72733w is 1600 lumen and 1 amp draw The 72446 is 550 lumen and 0.3 amp
Light bar mounted in middle would be good _________________

I have a Narva Marine single inline led setup that I've mounted to the back of my Barcrusher hardtop (folding hardtop). Tried to find a pic and this is pretty close. Comes with a bracket that can adjust so I can illuminate my cockpit nicely. Bracket can be mounted to a tube/ bar or flat surface. Easy to wire up myself especially as only one wire and didn't need to split in two. Also, it stays out of the way of my rocket launchers as have mounted on the rear lip of my hardtop.
Cost about 250 from memory and wouldn't want any brighter.

I'm Using twin LED Narva flood lamps x2 mounted on rocket launchers.
Throws enough light to work in without drawing too much current, though have another pair of flush mount LED work lights installed in the gunwales if excessive light is required.
If you are only going to run the one pair i suggest buying the 4 LED units, though as previously stated, they obviously draw more current. |

| Cheers guys. Will look into the light bar in the middle and probably go with that plus 2 of the 2 LEDs each side off separate switch |

| i upgraded before snapper season to the narva 72446 after having brightlite auto leds on for a year, the narvas are a welcome change and throw more than enough light out to cover the snapper racks and into the water if needs be |

Mmmmmm I've thought of a light on that lip...just so when your sitting back you don't have the side lights in your eyes. My BC really needs a dash light as well, as I tend to through stuff up there at night and then can't find it.... _________________ "STOP KIDS FISHING"

Rod I dont like the lights in the gunnels that Bc fit, too bright and blind u too often. If I was getting another BC I would not have them fitted but go under gunnel strip led lighting that floods the pockets and floor. Much better option and your right need a decent light under roof such as a red/white combo. I am seriously thinking about a 780HT and got some ideas on my lighting options for sure _________________
