LED Marine Lighting: Bright Seas Ahead

Among looking very cool on your vessel LED marine lights are also effective for safety, fishing and leisure. These LED install kits can come customizable to almost any color and have effects of strobing and other patterns to make your boat the center of attention. Some product lines feature app compatibility to give you total control from the wheelhouse or the yacht club. These kits can begin under 500$ and can range upwards of a couple thousand depending on customer requests and size of vessel. Whether for your 20-foot fishing boat or 150-foot mega yacht the marine LED market provides an option for you. Below we will take a look at just a couple names in the industry to see what’s out there to a consumer.

Based in Delray Beach, Florida; Lumitec Lighting offers it’s SeaBlaze LED underwater lights which project the highest lumens per dollar on the market, are built using state of the art technology and the highest quality materials and are designed to run cooler, consume less power and last longer than other conventional LED underwater lighting technologies. Another awesome technology is Lumitec’s Mantis Dock Light system leveraging the cutting edge Quattro Spectrum underwater light but adds an innovative universal mounting system and a completely new full-immersion rear seal and wire technology, which will give you the best looking dock on the water. Lights mount easily to square or round pilings up to 14” in diameter / 12” square – even on pilings with the typical ‘fenders’ above the waterline. A typical installation takes less than 90 minutes and doesn’t even require a permit in many municipalities.
