Dark, shadowy interiors make it hard to see what you’re doing. This 18" Great White LED cove light cuts through that with a clean 1,000-lumen beam powered by 12 ultra-bright white diodes. The custom-cut optics spread the light evenly across walls and floors, making it easier to load, organize, or work inside without dim spots. It runs efficiently on either 12V or 24V DC systems and only draws 0.36 amps at 12V—bright performance without draining your power supply.
Moisture and dust can quickly ruin a good light, but this one is sealed up tight. The molded housing meets IP67 standards, keeping out dust, vapor, and water intrusion so the LEDs stay protected and reliable. Whether humidity builds up or you’re in a dusty environment, this light keeps shining without flicker or corrosion.
When it’s time to install, mounting is straightforward. Tabs on each end let you screw it securely onto a wall or ceiling in either orientation—vertical or horizontal—to get the lighting angle you want. The surface-mount design means no recessed cutouts or complicated brackets, just a clean fit against your interior panels.
Constantly replacing burnt-out bulbs gets old fast. The Great White LEDs last up to 50 times longer than incandescent bulbs and don’t have fragile filaments to break. The clear lens keeps the light crisp, and with no bulbs to replace, maintenance drops to nearly zero. Just wire it up once with the simple 2-wire system—one lead for power and one for ground—and enjoy reliable light for years.

Today we're going to take a look at the Peterson 18 inch long Great white LED trailer Interior Cove Light. Now this interior cove lighting strip provides a nice bright light to illuminate an interior space. It is perfect for enclosed trailers. It does use molded ceiling to help resist dust, moisture and vapor. It does use 12 white LEDs on it and it is compatible with 12 volt and 24 volt systems. It is a surface mount design.
You can mount it to a trailer wall or ceiling and it can be mounted either horizontally or vertically. And the design of it also, it can fit into corners nicely. Now the mounting hardware to install this is not included. You can see on the end it is a two wire design, includes the white ground wire and the black power wire and the lead length on these wires is about five inches.This part is made in the USA. Light output on this is 1000 lumens.
IP rating is IP 67 and last thing I'm gonna do is give you some dimensions and then we're going to hook it up to some power just to show you how bright it is. So the overall length from the end of the mounting bracket to the other mounting bracket end is 19 11/16th of an inch. They call this an 18 inch light because if you measure right here, the inside of the actual light, it's right at about 18 inches. Now the width on it we're going to do to widths. The widest part is the edge where the mounting brackets are.
That width is going to be 1 3/4 inches. And then width of just the light itself is right at one inch. So what we're going to do now is hook this up to some power.Then we'll go ahead and turn off the overhead lights. So the white wire will be our ground. Black wire will be our power.
And with it all hooked up, we'll go ahead and turn it on and you can see the 12 LEDs all lit up. Go ahead and turn off our overhead lights and you can see for the 12 LEDs gives a very bright light in this whole area, and again, it can be mounted either way, horizontally or vertically. Then turn back on our overhead lights and go ahead and turn off our power. But that should do it for the review on the Peterson 18 inch long, Great White LED Trailer Interior Cove Light.
Ratings & Reviews
The purpose of this 5-star rating regards etrailer's level of service. In searching for LED interior lights that are made in USA, I came upon Peterson manufacturing. Their 359 series lights had excellent reviews, but for my application, I wanted a flush mount light which led me to their new 358 series. However, this product was just introduced just a few months ago and I could find no distributors or retailers that had any. So, I reached out to the service folks at etrailer and within a few weeks they were able to create a listing on their website, acquire the new lights, and notified me that they had them in stock. During this period of time, I was also in contact with other sellers, but only etrailer followed through on their commitment to help me acquire these new lights.
These lights are so nice I just ordered two more to complement the inside of my trailer
This light was easy to mount and connect. Add a great amount of light
Worked great as a replacement light for my ARE commercial truck topper!
Getting ready to put this 2nd set into my trailer. Tied them right into the cheap ceiling lights and really brightened it up inside.
Used to replace corroded incandescent back-up lights on trailer, these work great, easy to wire in, great illumination.
Have actually used used these in different setups. 2 enclosed trailers, a 10' long and 22 ' long. Also used 2 for pickup truck bed lighting mounted under the rails of a tonneau cover.
they have worked very well
