When you’re backing up at night or guiding a trailer into a tight spot, clear light coverage makes all the difference. This round backup light uses 36 white LEDs behind a clear lens to create a strong, even beam. The high diode count delivers a bright pattern that helps you see obstacles sooner and lets others spot your movement right away. At only 0.145 amps on 12.8V, it’s efficient too—putting out serious light without taxing your system.
Water and electronics don’t usually mix, but this light is built to handle it. The polycarbonate housing and clear lens are sonically sealed into one solid unit, keeping water out completely. It’s fully submersible, so rain, spray, or dunking at the ramp won’t stop it from working. That sealed construction also protects the LEDs and circuit board from corrosion for long-term reliability.
Forget about swapping bulbs or worrying about filaments breaking. The solid-state LEDs in this light last up to 50 times longer than incandescent bulbs and keep shining even after heavy vibration or shock. With no delicate parts inside, it’s a dependable setup that you can mount once and trust for years of service.
Installing this light is straightforward and tidy. It’s made for recessed mounting using grommet part # A45GB (sold separately) and connects with a standard 2-prong plug like part # A45CB. Only two wires—power and ground—keep things simple. Once mounted, the 4-5/16" diameter by 2" deep housing sits flush for a neat finish that won’t snag or catch on anything.
You can count on this light meeting the right standards wherever it’s used. It’s DOT compliant and meets FMVSS 108 requirements in any 360-degree position when installed as a pair in a two-lamp system. That means bright, legal performance designed for visibility and safety every time you use it.

These reverse lights dress the back of of our flat beds nice and there real bright.
The lights are much brighter than the originals and the installation was easy. The website is easy to navigate and the service was fast.
unimaginable improvement from one ancient and lackluster incandescent bulb to 10 LED diodes-requires modification of hole but is fairly simple and worth the effort-I used it as the porch light on my '72 airstream reno-great result!
Replaced your OEM lights with up to date clarity and the same fit with no hassle!
These lights are great. They light up much better than the stock incandescent bulbs that were in my ranch hand bumper. I can see great when backing my truck up now. They also fit better than the original bulb housings.
Perfect fit 2017 Georgetown xl 369ds
LOOKS 100% Better ! Ty
Great and perfect replacement for the backup lights in my headache rack.
They look good just bought them as spar es
the light fixture works very good except when used in the bracket, it leaves the back exposed to being hit by road debris. There is no cover on the light fixture. Therefore i went to a local fabricator and he made a fixture out of 2x4 steel tubing. The gasket fit perfectly but when i went to us the 2 wire pigtail, it was at the wrong angle for the light. I purchased another one locally. just wanted you to know that i could only use the light and the gasket.
Thank you for your prompt service.
These lights have been an outstanding upgrade from the original incandescent brake/turn/tail/reverse lights on my department's 1992 water tanker. The diodes in the lights are really bright and can be seen clearly at nighttime or during the day. 10 out of 10, would recommend!
Nice & bright - should definitely provide more light when backing at night vs. the old incandescent bulb.
I purchased this Optronics LED Backup Light to supplement the amount of reverse light that the T Bargman LED taillights provide. I installed them on a 1991 Ford E450 21 passenger church bus. This light is intended to be installed in a steel trailer frame with a rubber grommet which I did not order. I did not realize that a grommet was required. I probably would have ordered the grommets just in case I needed them but it was not made obvious to me on the website or recommended that I may want to consider including them in the order. After receiving the package and examining the light I realized that there was no way to secure the light into place without something. I went back to the website and looked up the light again and drilled down to the bottom and there it was, the grommet that I needed. Why didn't the site make the recommendation more obvious or suggest this part before ordering like it did with the wiring lead...? I was able to still make the lights work, it just took a little bit of planning which was required anyway with this custom retrofit application. I cut a precise hole into the fiberglass so that I could recess the light, which was my original plan even before realizing that the light required a grommet. I recessed the light in the hole and glued it in place with silicone. Time will tell if this was a good idea or not. I wish that I would have ordered the elbow wiring leads in stead of the straight ones. I ran into a clearance issue with the straight lead and had to modify them as well.
I purchased these Submersible LED bulbs for my boat trailer for two reasons. The first is so road traffic is aware of my intentions of backing up and the second is to make it easier to back my trailer into my driveway at night. The only thing that I find disappointing about this product, is that the wires are not sealed. You have to plug a pigtail in to power the bulb. Although they say it is watertight, I still plan on sealing the plug with some marine grade silicone sealant. Otherwise I am very satisfied with the way these bulbs light up my path of travel.
Product exactly as needed. Existing lamps last about 8 to 10 weeks as docking lights on my motorhome; there are four - one at each wheel. These lamps fit perfectly and are much brighter. My expectation is that these lamps will last more than a year(?) We'll see.
These Lights were a perfect fit for my RV. They easily fit over the OEM flush mounted incandescent lights that were very dim by comparison. The soft rubber gasket that came with them made installation very easy and watertight. As you can see in the picture, I replaced both my brake & back-up lights. I've had several compliments on their looks by people that saw my RV before I installed these too! But most of all, I'm very satisfied with the huge increase in brightness when I need it. I would recommend these for any do-it -yourselfer out there to upgrade existing trailers, or for something you're building!
Nice lights. I have the 36 diode oval LED lights mounted on a flatbed truck as reverse lights and they are not near as bright as these 10 diode lights. I have the 10 diode lights mounted inside a 6ftx20ft stock trailer on a toggle switch. There is one at the front and one at the back. They give off plenty of light to load and unload horses and cattle in the dark. I would buy these again for the next trailer I rebuild. The team at etrailer.com is top notch as well. Your order will ship the same day and arrive in a timely manner. If it does not they will tell you why. Great people to do business with.
Just what was needed to brighten up the rear of my horse trailer when loading and unloading in the dark
With several of the MCL31 clearance I had half or all of the LEDs stop working. I did not at the time realize they had a lifetime guarantee so I just threw them away. When A bunch of the LEDs in both BUL52CBs and about half of the turn/stop LEDs in the STL37RB went out, I contacted etrailer and they happily replaced them, but it took a couple of weeks and I had to pay the shipping. When I replaced all of my trailer lighting, I had thought that I would never have to worry about it again. LEDs should last forwver. That turns out to not be the case and it is a lot harder to change out hard wired LEDs than socketed incandescent bulbs. I wish I could find reliable long lasting LED trailer lighting.
Great, fast, and bright bulb. Thanks!!!
Nice upgrade for my work truck. The old lights were faded, can’t have that! Super bright. Worth the money. Highly recommend!
Great Product!
Excellent Product and Easy Plug and Use Installation
Items arrived as described. Good quality, price and fast delivery made this purchase an overall great deal. The lights and the cables I haven’t test them, waiting for my truck replacement bumper to arrive in September and have the body shop install them for me. I will update my review, but for now I recommend this products and the seller.
