Helpful Expert Reply:
I recommend the Peterson Interior and Compartment Light, part # 433600. If strategically mounted in your horse trailer it should provide you with plenty of light.
If your trailer has a 6- or 7-way trailer connector you would want to find the 12-volt accessory wire that is on the connector and use that as the power source for part # 433600. Typically, this wire will be black and will have 12 volts of power present at the connector if your tow vehicle is turned on or not.
The light comes with an on/off button, though you could certainly wire a light switch.
You might want to purchase a circuit tester, part # PTW2992, to test the different wires to determine which wire is the 12-volt power source.
