Specs:
This red LED light serves as a trailer tail light with stop, turn, and tail functions. The light gives your truck or trailer a distinctive look that's completely street legal. This Optronics GloLight has a unique solid light pattern when lit, so your lights stand out from the rest. Optronics GloLights are a great way to add both style and value to your truck or trailer.
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.
The long-lasting, cool-burning LEDs make this light the perfect replacement for incandescent vehicle and trailer lighting. LED lights are more efficient, use less power, and last much longer than incandescent lights.
The surface-mount technology used to construct these lights protects the LEDs from shock and vibration better than through-hole technology because the diodes are soldered directly to the surface of a printed circuit board instead of attached with wires that run through holes in the board. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability, and durability.
Recessed-mount trailer lights install underneath a housing or a grommet (A45GB). These lights will extend into the mounting surface and require that a hole be cut into your trailer.

Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the Optronics GLOlight LED trailer tail light. This round trailer tail light serves three functions for your trailer; your turn signal light, your tail light, and your brake light. Now the GLOlight lens creates a solid light pattern with a smooth appearance. So we have the outer band of LEDs that functions as a tail light and then the center area acts as the turn signal and brake light.Features a sonically sealed waterproof housing and lens unit that is submersible. It also features durable surface bound technology when it comes to the construction of the LED circuit board. What that does is it better withstands shock and vibration and allows for improved heat distribution and an overall thinner construction.LEDs make great replacements for incandescent lights.
They last longer, they burn brighter, they're more efficient. With LEDs, you don't have to worry about replacing bulbs and you don't have to worry about brittle filaments. This one features a nice polycarbonate housing with a red acrylic lens. It is a recessed mount installation with the included PVC grommet. And it also comes with your wiring.
So it includes the right angle, three wire pigtail that plugs into the industry standard three prong plug on the back of the light. Creates a really nice tight seal, keeping out dirt, grime, and moisture.It is DOT compliant. That's Department of Transportation. Meets FMVSS108 and CMVSS108 requirements for automotive lighting. It mounts in a four and a half inch diameter hole.
So basically I'm going to pull that lip back and the area that it mounts into will actually sit right in this area here. So it creates a really nice tight seal in that four and a half inch diameter hole. The overall dimensions or diameter of the unit, measuring edge to edge right here is about five and 3/8 inches. And then the light face itself is about four and a 1/4 to four and 5/16.We're going to go ahead and hook it up to power that way you can see what it looks like with power running to it. We'll also turn off our overhead lights so you can see it in a lower light setting.
Now the way this is set up, our white wire with the ring inaudible 00:02:06 on it, that's going to be our ground wire. Black is our positive power wire for the tail light function. And then red is our positive power wire for the stop and turn signal function.So you can see here the light sends out a nice bright consistent signal. You can obviously see that we have that outer band of LEDs, functions as a tail light. Nice nude appearance. And then we have the center red LEDs that act as the turn signal and brake light.Now this unit features 21 diodes or 21 LEDs so the multi-diode design really helps optimize the overall light output. Power draw at 12.8 volts. For the tail light is 0.145 amps. And for the stop and turn light, it's 0.375 amps. And Optronics also puts a lifetime warranty on the LEDs.That's going to do it for today's look at the Optronics GLOlight LED trailer tail light.

4-5/16" Round. 3-Function, waterproof light acts as brake, tail, and turn light. GloLight lens creates a solid panel of light. Recessed mount with included grommet. Accepts industry-standard 3-prong plug.Nice and bright
Etrailer makes it easy to find hard to find items, their follow up communications and prices are great.
solid lights, perform well and are easy to install- I'd rather they were made in the USA []
Communication with etrailer has been really good.This item was back ordered and they let us know immediately.
The grommets fit well into the holes and the lights pop in snuggly.
Everything fit well and is still working after 1 year of light use (no pun intended).
Item received in just 48 hrs. Item was very close match to one being replaced. minor difficulty getting into existing hole, however once installed worked very well. I will soon replace the opposite side on vehicle to have a matching VERY bright set.
Being in business for 45 years it is great to find a company that has the knowledge of the products and excellent service. Great product lines. A+

If you’re going to sell lights you should also sell the wiring harness along with it I almost couldn’t use the lights but got lucky and found the wiring harness.

The Igor worked great. I had a heck of a time trying to order lights for the trailer - either not getting the ones I intended getting or mismatched lights. But you came through like me a champ. Thanks.

This one is for the “driver” side. It has the lens on the bottom for lighting the license plate. (It does not include the license plate holder. I like this one because you just push in the wires. I recommend this light.
Review from a similar GloLight in Trailer Lights
I have had these installed for a year now on my 14ft utility trailer. I love these lights! They are strong, durable, bright, and look so super cool at night! Most recently, last month, I trailered 1500 miles and through the mountains in West Virginia. They held up through curves and bumps and rainstorms and even dime-sized hail! I would recommend these to anyone who needs this style of light! I wish I had brackets enough to put two on each side... just so it would look extra bada**!

The Optronics surface mount light (STL178RK1B) was easy to install and the 22 LED diodes provide exceptional light.
The light fits snug on the trailer bracket and the foam gasket provides extra protection.

All in one and slim. Worked perfectly on flat bed trailer where there is only 3" frame to attach to.
Review from a similar GloLight in Trailer Lights
Hello, I just opened up my order and I would like to return the lights - they are all scuffed up and scratched from the poor packaging job. The rear gasket also has a tear and they look like these units were once returned for the same reason. Please send an RMA or instructions to return the units. This is really disappointing - please advise on your website if your selling new lights or used, I paid for new lights.
Review from a similar GloLight in Trailer Lights
Upgrading our 1998 Coleman Grandview, the old incandescent just seemed too dim.
Nice light, only suggestion would be to list some wiring options, was a bit confusing going from the old Bargman to the new LED.
But I read through the Bargman page here and got squared away.
Pic is LED before anchoring compared to the stock on the right. BIG improvement.

Very fast shipping. I didn’t install them yet just connected them to a battery. Seem real bright. Bought them for my boat trailer. Thank you.
Review from a similar GloLight in Trailer Lights
Very disappointed with etrailer! Whoever packed this either does not care or is clueless in shipping. They used to small of a box. The light fixture was to big for the box, it actually bowed the box outward. It was doomed before it left etrailer. Plus I was shorted on another product that I ordered. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!
