Specs:
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.
A P2-rated light produces a 45-degree angle of light to either side of its centerline for a total of 90 degrees of coverage. This beam pattern can be seen straight on, but it cannot be seen clearly from the side. So this type of light can be used as either a side marker light or a clearance light, but it cannot function as both. If you need both functions, then you must install 2 separate lights on your trailer - one as a front or rear clearance light and one as a side marker light.

Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Optronics ultra thin line LED identification light bar, part number MCL70RCB.Here's what our light looks like once we have it installed. We're gonna have three red LEDs. They're gonna put out a nice bright light, and it is gonna be a lot brighter than most incandescent lights. And this is gonna be a great replacement for incandescent lights 'cause we're not gonna have to worry about the bulbs inside to go out and no brittle filaments to break.Our light's gonna be a surface mount design, and it's gonna be sealed and have a waterproof housing and lens so we're not gonna have to worry about getting any kind of corrosion on the inside. Whenever our lights are off, it's gonna have a completely clear lens which is gonna blend in really nice if you have a white or a silver trailer.Our whole light is gonna be 15 inches long and one and three-eights inches tall, and it's only gonna be five-eights of an inch deep. And the mounting points from center to center are gonna be 14 and one-eights inches apart.Our light's gonna be great for trailers that are over 80 inches wide because it's gonna meet the DOT specifications.
With the overhead lights off, you can see how bright our lights are. They're only gonna be pulling .038 amps at 12 volts.To begin your installation, you're gonna want to pick a spot that you're gonna be mounting your bar. Now we already decided that we're gonna be mounting ours at the back of our trailer here and we already had several holes drilled for a previous installation and fortunately, a couple of ours do match up with our new light.So we're gonna take our two wires, we already have a hole in the middle here, we're gonna pass those wires through and then bring them back down so we have access to them. Our black wire's gonna be our power wire and that's gonna tap into wire that's already on our trailer.So I'm gonna trim back the excess wire here and I'll strip back the end of it. I'll take a butt connector, put it to the end of our strip wire.
I'm gonna take our black wire, put the other end of it into our butt connector and crimp it down.I'm gonna use a heat gun to shrink down my connector, but if you're using an open flame, you just want to be extra careful not to burn or char the wire or the connector itself.Then our white wire's gonna be our ground and we have a few different options of how we can mount it. You just want to make sure you go into metal. And since we're gonna have more here at the back, make sure I'm gonna pull my wire back out and you're gonna need to pick up a ring terminal. I'll strip back a little bit more of this wire. I'm actually gonna fold it over on itself so that ring terminal has plenty to grab onto.
Then I'll crimp it down. Then I'm gonna be attaching it directly behind the light here. So you want to grab a self tapping screw and get a hole started in the metal and then we can attach our ring terminal.We'll take our light. Make sure we tuck our wires behind. And you're gonna want to pick up some stainless steel hardware, pass it through the mounting holes, and we'll secure on the back with a lock washer and a nut.
Make sure our hardware's tight, and then we can test out our light.That'll finish up your look at the Optronics ultra thin line LED identification light bar with three red diodes and a clear lens, part number MCL70RCB.
