Question:
I am building a 10foot tear camper and thinking a waterproof, flush mount oval light would make an ideal porch light above each side door. The lights would be switched from the inside of the trailer and used for general area lighting outside the trailer. In your expert opinion would #BUL78CB be good choice? Would #STL78AB turn signal wired with a HI/LOW switch be more versatile as a area/night light? Thanks for your time and consideration

Expert Reply:
Between utility light # BUL78CB and amber light # STL78AB the better option would be the utility light # BUL78CB. It will be brighter and the white light is definitely going to provide better visibility.
We do also have lights designed specifically as porch lights such as # RVPL1C. I have included links to video reviews of these lights for you.
