Led lights

[Bassman]

Where could I buy led lights for my portable I need enough light for the whole house I checked the fishhousesupply.com but didnt find a led that seemed big enough to light the whole house. And would they run off of a 6volt battery. any help would be great.

I put a 4-LED Surface Mount Light in my camper like what fish house supply sells so when I am off the grid I don't discharge my batteries so quickly and they give off more light then a person would guess. I have also used 20 watt halogen ones like used for under counter lighting they really put out the light also but draw more amps of course.

LED Rope Lights

I bought mine from an HSOList store. They are back-up lights from a semi and use two of them and have a computer fan hooked in and run it all off a vexilar battery and get a solid night of fishing out of one charge using all three at the same time. The store on HSOList was litevision I believe. I would check there. Be prepared to pay $50+ for a pair. The money was well spent I think and my colman lantern just sit on the shelf now.

I agree with Harvey. The LED lights at BestHonLED are perfect for a portable. I have two strings in my FT guide and it's bright enough to read a book (or tie lures) with no problem. They are flexible, waterproof and are configured in a "line", so they can easily be zip-tied to the cross bars on the sides or above you.

LED Lights for Portables

Thats the thread I was looking for Borch. You found it.

I was going back and forth on it, but today ordered 3 strings from BestHonLED. Can't wait to get them - two for my Otter Cabin, and one to test out in the boat in various locations, maybe even one in the duck boat

[harvey lee]

They are the best lights I have ever used in a portable hands down.

I think I went through 300 posts relating to LED lights before I found it. Lots of good info there.

BoxMN - Which LED lights did you go with on besthonLED? There are a ton of them on there.

I tell you what I purchased and also say they work great. One string does ok but, two really lights things up. I have them set on a seperate switch so I can run one or both.

Do you think one of these ran to each hole in my perm. would be enough to light up the hole?

[jbird68]

8 and 12 Inch LED TUBES by Lunar Accents design work nice.

[BoxMN]

I got the same ones Harvey did. Hopefully they will work as well as everybody is saying, cause they look really cool and easy to put in.

[RonZych]

I ordered some. They are cheap enough if they don't work. I am going to drop them right on the edge of the hole once its augered open.

[Huntin&Fishin]

How many rope LED lights would it take to light up a Clam Yukon like a lantern would?

[harvey lee]

I use to have a voyager and two did pretty good. If you would like it a bit lighter I believe that three would be fine but probably not needed.

In my new Otter Lodge I have two and thats plenty of light for me to do whatever I need to do.

[BoxMN]

Mine came in the mail today. They are shorter than I expected - but I am not used to metric lengths yet, so I guess I should have known But it looks like two should light up my Otter Cabin just fine. I think my third one might go under the gunwale in our duck boat for early mornings.

-edit:-- One of my three strings has 3 lights out in the middle. Still bright, and not worth sending back to China But the other two were fine. They sure seem pretty bright.

Yes, two clips will be needed to the ends for the battery.

[ilovehardwater]

thanks harvey

They sure have went a long way with led lights. They run for days on AA batteries. A good combination (the one I use) is a couple strings and a hanging spotlight. You can't have enough light when tying a jig on.
