Kayak Light Pole Parts:
1" PVC pipe - Class 200 (also called SDR 21). Do not use schedule 40 PVC pipes since the walls are too thick and the flashlight won't fit inside. You only need about 3-4 inches of it for the flashlight holder.
Flashlight with COB (360 degree visibility) light: amzn.to/3mQSg52
1x1/2 inch PVC reducing coupler (2 of them)
1 inch PVC end plug (1 each)
1/2 inch PVC pipe - this is your main pole so you can use any length you want. Don't make it too long as that will act as a sail!

Cool DIY nav light PK. You could also glue a small magnet down inside the pvc cap for the flashlight to grab so you don’t have to worry about the stability and tape.
Good idea 💡. You might also epoxy a flat washer (like a fender washer) into that top 1” -1/2” adapter for the magnet in the flashlight to hold onto.
I love the ersatz approach to things! It is so cool to DIY gadgets for your fishing gear! Keep up the good work PK!
Nice little light, I’d buy one for general everyday use.
Nice PK, instead of putting tape around the flashlight, how about drill a hole in the PVC and insert a screw to hold the flashlight, then you can tighten or untighten it...just thinking...good job
Nice, thanks bro

Its not just fishing....
Merry Christmas to you and yours, I enjoyed the videos this year keep up the good job.
So cute! 🤪👑😘
It looks like that link takes you to a different flashlight, one where the base of the light has the 360 degree illumination, might need to find a link to that original one
Awesome
Great work! Does the light ever collapse down from 360 degree light while water?
Do you ever fish Coos Bay
