The parts list for these lights and other components listed is beyond outstanding. Thx for taking the time to explain each step of the light setup. Needed to do the same and is very helpful!

Have you ever thought about putting a gunnel rail system on the boat? If so, do you have a video?

Where are you connecting your negative from The light strip? I’m trying to get my switch to work but wiring the way you mentioned I don’t see where the negative from the light strip goes

I did not understand the wiring the black goes with wat wire and the red goes with red but wat about the black wire wat did u do with it??????

Great videos! I see with adding these lights you spliced the positives together into one large wire as opposed to your original compartment lights where you had individual positive wires to a bus bar, so my question is why did you not just run separate positive bus bars for the new lights. which method would you recommend?

@BassBrothersFishingDMV

2 жыл бұрын

It all depends on the application. In some cases it makes sense to join two or three wires into one and in other cases you may use a buss bar to bring several wires to one lead. In the end I use both depending on the situation. Both are effective

Is it a real fishing boat? It sure looks like a showroom boat. Well done.

How many small LED lights can you hook up on one wire? I have the smaller LEDs that I want to run to my compartments and for deck. Can these be put on one switch and circuit? Also what fuse should be used? It is 12 volt battery on boat.

@BassBrothersFishingDMV

Жыл бұрын

Small LEDs don't draw allot of power so you should be fine. A 5 Amp fuse will do the trick. You may be able to go with a lower Amp fuse if the manufacturer recommends it.

Have you had any issues with the lights staying stuck to the surface? I've bought so many led light strips and that 3m adhesive has always let me down. It will stick once to a surface and fall off and never go back on again.

Where did you buy the grommets for the butt end of the fishing pole locker ?

What size/gauge wire do you run to your batterys to fuse box? 10 gauge ?

Hey, great videos! Q: the reviews on the lights say they stop working after a few uses or parts of the strip go out. Any issues yet? I know you put silicone to help adhesion, any de-lamination? Thanks!

@BassBrothersFishingDMV

2 жыл бұрын

No issues at all. All lights are still on like day one. Not sure if that's be a use I added silicone or not. The only change I noticed is the actual light strip has a yellow tint to it from being exposed to the sun. The lights themselves work perfectly fine. Very bright and white. Funny thing is the yellow tint to the strip actually makes the light strips blend in better with the color of the boat lol.

In general LEDS use little power so I don't anticipate having any issues. They're connect to a 27DC deep cycle battery which has more than enough power. I use and on-board charger to charge all the batteries

After some use with new lights did you think the side rail lights were angled too high facing your eyes? Or did it work out perfectly

@BassBrothersFishingDMV

So far I've used the deck lights only to put stuff away at night. I'll do some actual night fishing in a couple weeks so I'll know more at that point. I don't anticipate the lights being too bright or shining too high because they are on a dimmer switch. I do like the fact that there is a slight angle up so I can take some cool night shots.

I know you mean well, but the worst thing you ever want when you're out on a boat at night is rows of white light shining up at you, robbing you of night vision, robbing you of the pleasure of adjusting to ambiant light, posibly even spoiling it for any boater nearby. Even a stern 180° white running light should be shielded from your view in the cockpit.
