Features to know about

Brighter Light with Lower Power Draw: 5-Diode LED Efficiency

If you’re upgrading from old bulbs, this light gives you the visibility boost without the extra power demand. The Piranha LED uses five amber diodes that produce a bright, even glow while drawing just 0.14 amps at 12V. It’s rated for up to 100,000 hours of operation, so you can count on steady performance for years without ever swapping a bulb. The efficient 9V–16V operating range also makes it a reliable choice for modern 12V DC systems.

Better Visibility from Every Angle: PC-Rated 180-Degree Coverage

Visibility isn’t just about brightness—it’s about coverage. This light is PC rated, meaning it shines in a full 180-degree beam pattern that can be seen from the front and sides. When properly mounted, it functions as both a clearance and side marker light, helping others see your trailer from multiple angles in low-light conditions or at night. That wide beam pattern adds an extra layer of safety on the road.

Solid Design That Holds Up: Durable Housing and Lens

You don’t have to worry about fragile parts here. The durable plastic base and acrylic amber lens are built to handle outdoor use and vibration without cracking or yellowing. The LEDs are sealed inside for added protection, so you get consistent performance without the brittleness or moisture issues common with older lights.

Simple Surface Mounting: Clean Fit with AMP-Style Plug

Installing this light is straightforward thanks to the built-in flange design. It mounts flat against the trailer surface and only needs a 2-3/4" diameter hole for wiring. The AMP-style plug connection keeps things weathertight and secure, while the overall 3-1/2" outside diameter fits neatly without sticking out awkwardly. With a clean finish and solid mount, it looks as good as it performs.

Video Transcript for Review of Peterson Trailer Lights - Amber Lens LED Trailer Clearance Side Marker Light - PE56NR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look together at this Piranha Amber Lens LED Trailer Clearance and Side Marker Light. Now, this light's gonna be really a practical option for you to consider because it actually does two jobs in one. When you have this light mounted correctly, this is gonna work as both a clearance light and a side marker light. So you're gonna be covering two safety requirements with one single light.

This uses five amber LEDs, which put out bright, highly visible light, as you can see here. You're gonna wire this into your 12-volt system. You will need to use an AMP-style plug connection to keep things weather tight and secure on the connection side of things. But you're gonna be getting strong illumination without putting much strain on your trailer's electrical system. I'm gonna turn my studio lights off here real quick just so you can see how bright this is.

You see it on the table here. So very bright, very clear light. LEDs, as you know, are a big upgrade over traditional bulbs. This one is rated for up to 100,000 hours, so you likely won't be replacing this light anytime soon. Another nice feature is the 180-degree beam pattern.

So it's a PC-rated light, which means that the light is visible from both the front and the sides of the trailer. That added visibility is gonna make a big difference for safety, especially at night or in low light conditions. Installation is going to be pretty straightforward. I mentioned that this does use the AMP-style plug connection. I just have some clips in there to light this up.

So you do do need to make sure that you have an AMP-style plug connection on your trailer. This is gonna be a surface-mount design with the built-in flange that's going to secure flat against your trailer. And on your screen, I am going to pop up some diagrams there showing you measurements. I thought that would be easier to show you than trying to hold a ruler up to this light. So you're going to need a 2 3/4 inch cutout hole. And the overall light's gonna measure right at 3 1/2 inches in outside diameter. It's about 1 9/16 inches deep. And the mounting holes are spaced at 2 3/4 inches apart on center. So it's gonna be easy to line this up properly. This is also built to hold up to road conditions. (lens clacks) The acrylic lens and durable plastic base are designed to resist cracking and brittle failure. So this is gonna be able to handle vibration, weather, and regular trailer use. (light knocks) Overall, this is a low maintenance, energy efficient, and durable light that's gonna improve visibility and check multiple boxes with a single installation. (light knocks) If you happen to have any other questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We do wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. Well, again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
