The lights measure 1 inch high, 1-3\/4 inches wide, and 3\/8 inch deep, so they are useful where a conventional side light housing would be too bulky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe set uses 3-watt red and green LEDs with a .6 amp draw at 12V, a 112.5 degree view angle, and a 2 nautical mile designation for sail and powerboats. It is rated IP68 for water resistance and is intended for low-voltage 12 to 14 VDC systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface-mount side navigation light set with one red and one green LED light for port and starboard visibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for boats up to 40 feet where 2 nautical mile side lights are required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ABYC and USCG requirements for sail and powerboat side navigation light designation 2nm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-watt LED output with a low .6 amp draw at 12V, reducing battery load compared with a 10-watt incandescent light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e112.5 degree unobstructed viewing angle helps keep the correct side-light sector visible with less glare.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-gauge polished stainless-steel cover protects the light and keeps the installation low and neat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnodized cylindrical aluminum heat sink helps manage LED heat during long periods of use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP68 water-resistant rating supports exposed marine installations where spray, rain, and washdowns are part of normal use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstalls on flat surfaces with marine adhesive sealant, making it useful for compact mounting areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis light set is meant for flat mounting surfaces and works well on boats where space around the bow or small transom-style areas is limited. The shallow 3\/8 inch depth keeps the lights close to the surface, which helps reduce snag points and keeps the hardware visually subtle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause navigation light position affects compliance and visibility, the mounting location should allow the red and green sectors to remain clear from railings, canvas, hardware, and hull flare. Use a marine adhesive sealant during installation to help seal the mounting area against water intrusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eElectrical and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe F38-6610D is a low-voltage LED set for 12 to 14 VDC boat electrical systems. Its .6 amp draw at 12V makes it a practical match for small cruisers, center consoles, fishing boats, and sailboats that need required side lighting without adding a heavy load to the house or starting battery system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LEDs are built for long service life, so the set is a good fit for owners replacing older incandescent side lights and looking for lower current draw, less routine maintenance, and a cleaner surface-mount installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eOne pair of surface-mount LED side navigation lights with red and green LEDs.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TACO Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52023079567541,"sku":"QBP144225","price":257.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1331611_qbp144225.jpg?v=1780191676","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp144225","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
