Optronics BUL72 Series LED Utility Light Diagram

Sonically Sealed, Waterproof Trailer Light

The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The housing and lens are sonically sealed together to create a single unit, which means that water will not get into the light and damage the diodes or circuit board.

  • Oval LED Trailer Taillights that are Red and White with More than One Diode
    Hey Brian, for white you could use the part # BUL72CB which has 10 diodes and then for red # STL72RB which is also 10 diodes.

  • Recommended 6 Inch Oval LED Backup Light For Brightness
    We have 6-1/2 inch oval LED lights that are very bright, that are typically referred to as 6 inch lights in the trailer industry. I recommend the Optronics GloLight LED Backup Light for Truck or Trailer - Submersible - 22 Diodes, # BUL111CB, because it is a very bright replacement light that that meets the DOT compliant standards. They have a very clean look and are sonically sealed so they can handle all the weather thrown at them. They require a recessed mount # a70gb, and a 2-prong...

  • Recommendation for Submersible LED Backup Lights on a Boat Trailer
    I can help you add reverse lights to your trailer. Yes, It is important to pay attention to DOT compliance when adding lights on your boat trailer. Compliance will be met if you use the Optronics # BUL10CB light as your backup light. The # BUL72CB is purposed for a utility light and will not meet the criteria for reverse lights on the roadway. In order to add reverse lights to your trailer would would need to have a 7-Way on the trailer and a 7-Way on the vehicle. On the vehicle side,...

  • Replacement Optronics Clear Oval Trailer Utility Light for BUL72CBGK on a MasterCraft Trailer
    Yes, the difference is that the BUL72CBGK has the grommet included. To replace both the light and grommet you will need # BUL72CB and # A70GB. I looked at a few images of MasterCraft Trailers and while we don't have the exact information of what it was outfitted with, this light appears to be similar, if you are looking for the red light with clear lens you will want # STL82RCB. Typically the number of the light will be stamped on the back of the unit itself. I have linked the above...

  • What Is the Brightest 6-1/2" Oval Backup/Utility Light
    If we are strictly speaking candela then the brightest oval 6-1/2" utility light we offer is the Optronics LED Trailer Utility Light part # BUL72CB which is rated at 123. If you can use a backup light then we offer the Optronics LED Backup Light part # BUL52CB which is rated at 175 candela.

  • Replacement Interior Lamp for 2008 Exiss Sport Horse Trailer
    Your existing lamp is an Optronics # BU70CB. The lamp is sealed, so the actual bulb inside is inaccessible. If the bulb burns out, you'd need to replace the entire lamp assembly, part # BU70CB. Because this lamp is rated as a reverse light for when the trailer is backing up, the DOT limits its brightness, and because it's an incandescent lamp it'll have a rather limited lifespan. I'd suggest going with an LED utility lamp like part # BUL72CB. You'd get a lamp that's the same dimensions,...

  • Difference in Brightness Between # BUL10CB Backup Light and # BUL72CB Utility Light
    Both the # BUL10CB and the # BUL72CB are 10 diode lamps, and therefore neither lamp would really be brighter than the other. The main difference between the two is how the light is focused. Because the # BUL10CB lamp is DOT compliant as a back-up light, the light would be more diffused over a wider area. By contrast, the # BUL72CB which is NOT certified as a back up light would have the light more focused on a smaller area. Each lamp would output a similar amount of light, but the # BUL72CB...

  • What is the Brightness Output of the Optronics 6-1/2 Inch LED Trailer Lights
    Optronics uses candelas to rate the brightness of their lights instead of lumens and the output of the Optronics 6-1/2 inch Oval LED Back Up light, # BUL52CB, is 175 candela. At a distance of 1 foot, the candela output is equal to the output in lumens. This light has the highest candela output of any of our 6-1/2 inch oval LED lights. The LED 10 diode light, # BUL72CB, has an output of 123 candela and the LED 10 super diode light, # BUL78CB, has an output of 125 candela. Another thing...

  • Flush Mounted LED Lights for Flatbed Trailer
    Thank you for the photos; based on what you showed, you would want oval LED lights that are in the 6-1/2" x 2" range, though you would need exact dimensions to ensure the right fit. For example, # STL72RB is a red oval light that measures 6-7/16" x 2-5/16" x 1-3/4" deep while # STL70RB is another red oval light but with dimensions of 6-1/2" x 2-1/4" x 1-1/8" deep. The same will apply for your white oval lights, such as the 6-1/2" L x 2-1/8" W x 1" # BUL72CB. The other lights look to be...

  • Is the LED Oval Trailer Utility Light Brighter than the Incandescent Oval Trailer Back Up Light
    I went out to the warehouse and checked all of our clear oval lights. The Sealed, 6-1/2 inch LED Clear Oval Trailer Utility Light, 10 Diode, item # BUL72CB, whiter light than the light emitted by the incandescent Oval Trailer Back Up Light, item # BU70CB, but the light does not illuminate as large an area as well. The advantages of the LED light is that it does not draw near as much amperage as the incandescent light, it lasts much longer and it does not produce the heat produced by incandescent...

  • Is a Rubber Grommet Needed to Install Optronics Oval 10-LED Trailer Utility Light # BUL78CB
    The Optronics Oval 10-LED Trailer Utility Light, part # BUL78CB, is made with a built-in mounting flange for surface-mount installation where there is no cut-out for the fixture. This item includes both ground and positive wire leads that exit from the rear of the housing. This product does not require a rubber mounting grommet as do some similar products from Optronics, although we do offer a snap-on chrome-finish accent ring for it, part # A78CB. For example, their # BUL72CB is a similar...

  • Utility Light for the Back of a Truck for Backing Up a Boat Trailer
    I think I have a better solution for you since a bracket is not available. Take a look at the ball mount hitch light # SRECEIVERS1160X2. This light fits between a ball mount and the face of the receiver on the hitch. You then wire it in to the reverse light circuit. I have included a link to a video review for you.

  • Reverse Light Recommendations for a Motorcycle Trailer
    If the trailer is one designed to carry a motorcycle, you can add some reverse lights to it. I recommend two lights, one on each side of the rear of the trailer. There are better suited lights for this application. I recommend the Sealed, 6-1/2 inch LED Clear Oval Trailer Utility Light, 10 Diode, # BUL72CB. These lights are submersible. You will also need a rubber grommet, # a70gb, for each light, and a pigtail, # A45CB, for each light. To mount the lights, you can use Mounting Bracket...

  • Troubleshooting Optronics BUL72CB Clear Oval 10 Diode LED with Only 4 Diodes Lighting
    If you are using the 2-Wire Pigtail for Optronics Trailer Lights - 2-Prong PL-10 Plug - 10" Lead # A45CB with the Optronics # BUL72CB lights, then all 10 diodes should be lighting. If you are using the 3 wire pigtail # A47PB then you only need to connect the white and red or the black and white wires. The red or black wire should give you the full 10 diodes, where one of them would only give you the center 4. It sounds like the connections are to the wrong spot on your lights since you...

  • Parts Needed to Add LED Reverse Lights to an ATV Trailer
    Led light # BUL72CB is not certified as use as a backup light. For an LED light that is designed for use as a backup use # BUL10CB. You will also need grommet # a70gb and wiring pigtail # A49PB. For wire you can use # 16-3B-1 sold in 1 foot increments. You will need to wire in the power wire to the reverse light circuit on the 7-Way. For the lights to work you have to have a functioning reverse light circuit on the vehicle side 7-Way.

  • What is the Height of the Optronics Sealed 6-1/2 Inch LED Clear Oval Trailer Utility Light
    The depth of this light is 1 inch, and that is measured from the base of the gray back to the top of the lens surface. The height of this light at the electrical connection is 1-3/4 inches. This light is also 6-1/2 inches long and 2-1/8 inches wide. Depending on your needs you might also need the grommet # a70gb, or wire pigtails # A47PB or the # A45CB. I have included a diagram showing these measurements for you, and a couple of videos for your reference.
