Opti-Brite LED Strip Light for RV Awnings - Weatherproof - Chrome Housing - 11" Long

Video Transcript for Optronics RV Lighting - Porch Light - ILL70CBAWN Review

Today, we're going to be taking a look at part number ILL70CBAWN. This is the Opti-Brite LED Interior Strip Light with a built-in awning. This light is from Optronics. It's going to offer a low-profile, low-heat white light. It's going to be great for an RV porch light or for a covered porch area. The awning is going to direct light downward at a 45-degree angle.

You can see here that it's going to mount on a flat surface and that the angle is going to cast going to cast the light down at a 45-degree angle. It's going to have the nice polished chrome frame that's going to add a lot of style to it. This is a sealed single-piece housing, so it's going to be waterproof. It's going to feature a clear polycarbonate lens. It's going to allow a lot of light to come through and it's also going to allow for even light distribution. This unit's going to feature nine diodes. It's an LED system.

The multiple-diode design is going to optimize your light output. LEDs are going to be a great replacement for incandescent bulbs. You don't have to worry about replacing any bulbs, you don't have to worry about brittle filaments, and the LED system is going to be a lot more efficient. The flat base is designed to mount on a flat surface. It's got the nice foam gasket back here that's stuck to the back of the housing. That's going to give it some cushion, so it's going to allow for a nice, tight seal for the installation.

It's also going to feature the two-wire design. You're going to have your white wire, which is going to be your ground. You're going to have your black wire for power. We're going to take a look at the overall dimensions, starting with the overall length. That's going to give us a measurement, measuring from edge to edge, looks to be about 11 5/16ths of an inch long. The width is going to give us a measurement of about 1 5/8ths of an inch.

Then the thickness is going to give us a measurement of about 1 1/8ths of an inch. Now that interior strip light length is going to measure 9 inches. Light output is 171 lumens. This is for 12-volt systems. It's going to have a power-draw of 0.15 amps at 12.8 volts. When it comes to the installation, it's a flat wedge base. You can see back here, you're going to have your mounting holes. One right here and one right here. If we take a measurement, the distance that we have between the two mount-holes, center-on-center, is going to be about 10 1/8th inch apart. The hole diameter for those mount-holes are going to be 3/16ths of an inch. Optronics is going to put a lifetime warranty on the LEDs. We're going to go ahead and connect this to our external power supply, that way you can see what it looks like with power running to it. We'll also be able to turn off our overhead lights, that way you can see it in a low-light setting. You can see here it sends out a really nice, consistent bright signal. The clear lens allows a lot of light to come through. The nine diodes provide plenty of light. I'm holding as if it would be installed, so you can see how it's going to cast the light down at a 45-degree angle. Again, that's just a nice, bright consistent signal. That's going to do it for our review of part number ILL70CBAWN. This is the Optronics Opti-Brite LED Interior Strip Light. .
