Will Diamond LED Tail Lights be Visible at Slight Angle

Updated 06/14/2022 | Published 06/11/2022

Question:

I am considering purchase of DG52720PB surface mount lights to replace my incandescent tail lights. The lights would be mounted on a surface that is angled down about 12 degrees from vertical see picture attached. Will this angle adversely affect the visibility of the lights? I ask because I know that some LEDs are somewhat directional. Thank you.

Thanks for the photo, and the slight angle will not adversely affect the visibility of the Diamond tail lights you asked about:

- LED Trailer Tail Light w/ Reflector - Stop, Tail, Turn - Weatherproof - 80 Diodes - Red Lens # DG52720PB

These LEDs are not directional, they do light up directly, and are quite bright so they'll be very noticeable. It is definitely a good idea to replace your incandescent lights with LEDs as they last much, much longer and have little power draw.
