LED lights

[bullhead master]

Which would work better and be brighter for a portable fish house the LED string lights or the LED flex tube lights from the Outdoor Pro store?

Flextube Lights are the brighest but they are back ordered. The string lights are a little cheaper so you could buy 2 sets of the string lights and be just as bright as the flextube LEDs.

Dont do led tube lights cause they dont work very good and they are not very bright!!!!! I would get something differnt.

Nether for me I have 2 Grip ON task light bars that take 4 AA battery's, and that have 72 bright led bulbs in them. I have been using just one for now with the battery's and it is the brightest light ever, and it has a nice hook on it and 3 decent magnets for hanging. The hook has been sweet for hooking on my bucket when I troll the holes at night, and hanging off my poles on the roof of my shack. My eventual plan is to hook them both up together to a 12v vex battery and hang them in my shack. I almost forgot the best part you can find them online at different sights for between 8-14$ a piece.

Frabill light bar, you won't be dissapointed! Plenty of light and tough enough to leave in your portable, takes 6 AA batteries and will run close to 75 hours!

Im using 2 led reverse lights from a semi. Good amount of light, and if they are made to withstand the conditions a semi encounters during all those miles in the winter I think they will hold up in an ice house just fine.

Do you leave the light bar in your portable while not in use? I used the light the other night for the first time and was very pleased with the amount of light. I did bring it in at the end of the trip rather than leave it in the garage (unheated).

Thanks,

I have left my light bar in my shack for the past 2 weeks in the back of my jeep, so yea it's been out in the cold. Everytime I go to use it it seems just as bright as when I put fresh batteries in it. I would be thinking pretty soon it would start dimming down if that's the case I've got to single frail lights on both sides of the sled for back up, and to glow jigs! So far so good with all my frabill products, everything from tip ups to my shack and lights they make good quality products!

South metro,

I also have one of these lights for just around the garage/boat/etc. and they are pretty impressive. Don't remember where I got it but can't seem to find them now, i thought maybe they went out of business. I'll have to look again. If i could find a good way to mount them it would be a good light in the shack.

I recently recived a 48" light from the OPS, and it appears that its gonna be a good light too.
