Hi everybody. My name is Andy with etrailer.com And today we're taking a look at this TecNiq Red LED Port Navigation Boat Light. Now, this LED Navigation Boat Light is going to provide increased visibility for your boat. This red light is going to designate the vessel's left or port side. Now this particular light is going to have a range of two nautical miles, for increased visibility and safety. And I wanted to give you a brief demonstration of what it looks like lit up.
I have it connected to 12V power, and keeping my studio lights on, you can see just how bright it is, with the lights on. Let me go ahead and turn my lights off. Again, you can see it's quite bright, and I'm gonna go to a wide view here. Just shine this on the wall behind me, it's gonna give you an idea of the beam that it emits. And so this is gonna be a premium red LED and it is gonna be energy-efficient, long-lasting, resistant to vibrations.
And this light is rated up to a 100,000 hours of operation. I'm gonna go ahead and turn the power off, and we're gonna go ahead and take another closer look at it. Now I do not have this stainless steel cover attached completely. So I could just remove it here, and show you the inside of the light. So the LED is sealed in a waterproof housing in a clear lens unit, and it is gonna be over this one red LED.
This does have an IP rating of 68. And what that means for you, is that it is able to withstand dust and dirt and sand. And it's also resistant to submersion up to a maximum depth of 1.5 meters underwater, for up to 30 minutes. Now, this does have a military-grade construction, of the circuit board. So that's gonna add to the durability of this light.
It also has a patented TecSeal potting process, that's going to ensure waterproof protection. Now this cover is stainless steel, and specifically, it is 316 stainless steel. And what that means, it's gonna be more resistant to pitting and corrosion. Let me just give you a overall view of this cover. And this is going to be a surface-mount installation. And so when you get this light and when you are ready to install this light, on your boat, you will have to pop this cover off. And so once you have this cover off, you would mount this light, where you would like to, and then you would use the installation hardware that you would have to get locally, to install this light. So this will not come with installation hardware, but then once you do have this light installed, then you would just put this cover. And, what I did here is, when you attach this cover, you would just start with the front. So begin with attaching the front of the light and then just kind of snap it shut, and make sure that it's completely snap shut. Now I do want to mention that when you open up this light to install it, it can be a little bit difficult to get this stainless steel cover off. So I found it best to take a straight slot screwdriver and just begin on the sides of the backside of the light here, kind of working, this plastic portion of the light out from the cover. And that will then get the cover to pop off. So just be aware of that, when you're ready to install this light. And let me, while we're here, give you a measurement of the distance between the mounting holes here. So let me just line this up for you. We're gonna be sitting right at 1 3/8 inches for the distance of the mounting holes. 1 3/8 inches. So, this does also have a gasket, that is gonna be included. So this gasket is to help keep your light weathertight. And it's also going to protect the finish of your boat. Now, this light is compatible with 12V DC systems. It is a hardwire installation. The black wire is going to be your ground, and the white wire on this light, will be your power. And this meets or exceeds ABYC A-16 and USCG 2NM Regulations. Now, let me give you some further measurements of the light, now that we have it fastened together. And that's going to include this gasket. So, the overall length of this light is gonna be sitting right at 3 1/4 inches. And then the overall width of this light, we're gonna be sitting right at 2 1/2 inches. And the overall thickness of this light, we're gonna be sitting right at about an inch, a little over an inch. Now, the input voltage of this light is gonna be 9 to 14V, and the power draw is gonna be .39 to .51 amps. And then the wire length is gonna run about five inches long, from the base of the light. Now this light does have a limited lifetime warranty. And again, this is going to be the red light, for the port side of your , for the port side of your board. If you are also looking for the green Starboard light, you can find that on our website, Item number TN32ZR. And if you are looking for both the red and green light, in the form of a Deck-mount light, you can find that on our website Item number TN52ZR. Well, that's gonna conclude our look today at TecNiq's Red LED Port Navigation Boat Light. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me..

Great item, great service.
Perfect!! Outstanding even!!!
The service and description was just perfect, outstanding video as well
Timely delivery, sleek low profile light, responsible customer service. One of two items arrived without a mounting pad. Company did not argus, question, or make me go through an annoying justification or return process. They accepted my notice and quickly sent out a new and complete product (not just the missing piece) to rectify the situation. Very appreciative.
Love it super bright and on the bow of my open fisherman boat and is perfectly bright and very visible at night
The design of this light is awful. The cover does not seal it from the elements and water can enter at will. Then the only way water can get out is through the wiring hole thus entering the boat. I am going to install it but expect it not to last
Great product
Purchased for my 2016 cobalt 220s. It’s a great fit and does not get super hot like the original light. I would purchase this again.
Works as designed. You need to include clear explanation of how to take the cover off to access the inside of the light in case of a wire failure, etc. that is the only reason I didn’t give five stars.
Looks to be well made. It is smaller than I thought it would be.
I will be installing the unit soon and will test the brightness.
The fact that the light has a stainless steel cover and is waterproof is what sold me.
