Hello Fred. The Optronics LED Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light # MCL55AB is made to work with 12v systems, so this will not operate on only 6 volts. If you have 6v batteries you would need to wire two of them in series in order to power a 12v light.

Hey Fred, were you able to get your lights running after wiring your 6-volt batteries in series for a 12-volt setup? Knowing how that worked could help others trying to power similar trailer lights.
