Light up your boat after dark with compact LED accent lights, courtesy lighting to see steps and the surrounding area, and bright options for docking. Dimmable choices are available that work with an LED-compatible dimmer switch, letting you dial in comfortable light on deck. Whether you need small, bright fixtures for tight spots or illumination for pontoons and walkways, it's easy to match the light to the job.
Yes, LED boat accent lights can be dimmable with an LED compatible dimmer switch. Confirm the dimmer is rated for LEDs and your 12V setup. Match polarity when wiring and test at low and high levels to reduce flicker.
Yes, a controller with two 4-pin plugs can run two strips in parallel so both act together. Line up +12V with R, G, and B on each plug. Seal any cut ends with end caps or heat-shrink and clear silicone to keep out moisture and dust.
You can ground to the boat's frame or run a wire directly to the battery. If grounding to the frame, use clean, bare metal free of paint, rust, or corrosion. Verify a solid connection before final mounting.
Use a mounting cover that matches the light's orientation, horizontal or vertical, for a finished look. Check the cutout or existing hole size, like preexisting 3/4 holes, before drilling. Make sure the cover attachment is secure; if it feels loose, add a bit of double-stick tape inside.
Some lights with their own switch may not turn back on automatically when power is cut by a wall switch. If power is removed, you may need to press the switch on the light each time. Check that the light supports external switch control if you want it to come on with your boat's switch.
