It uses the 6.0 HP Light Armor housing, produces 3,250 fixture lumens, throws an 80 degree beam, and comes with a 3 foot sheathed wire for the power run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis light is made for below-waterline use and operates only underwater. The housing stays low against the transom, while the sealed electronics, reverse polarity protection, heat sink cooling with active overheat protection, impact-resistant lens, and electro-polished 316 stainless steel cover suit boats that see salt, washdowns, and constant vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, check that you have room for a 6.00 inch by 2.35 inch fixture, 5.25 inch spacing between the mounting holes, a 9\/16 inch wire clearance hole, and 0.30 inch of depth for the wire collar inside the transom. LED life expectancy is rated at 50,000 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 white LEDs in the 6.0 HP Light Armor format with 3,250 fixture lumens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80 degree beam angle for a wider spread of light behind the boat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface-mount housing for below-waterline installation with a low profile once fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully sealed waterproof electronics with reverse polarity protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat sink cooling system with active overheat protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 foot sheathed wire for routing through the transom to a switched fused circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectro-polished 316 stainless steel cover and an impact-resistant lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated LED life expectancy of 50,000 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe install is straightforward for a surface-mount underwater light, but location matters. The unit should sit at least 10 inches below the waterline when possible. Pilot holes are 3\/32 inch, the wire clearance hole is 9\/16 inch, and the light is fastened with two #8 pan head stainless steel screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWire it to a fused 12 VDC circuit using waterproof marine connectors. For the 6.0 HP version, the fuse recommendation is 3 amps. Seal around the wire hole and fasteners with marine underwater sealant, but leave the back ridges unsealed so the housing can shed heat correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis light suits boats that want a white underwater spread at the transom without cutting for a larger through-hull body. It works well on center consoles, cruisers, and sportfishing boats where a surface-mount fixture, a wider beam, and a low installed height matter more than a flush through-hull look.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Attwood Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52023319363765,"sku":"QBP322529","price":404.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1329704_qbp322529.webp?v=1780191798","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp322529","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
