It uses 108 LEDs and is available with either white and blue light or white and red light, giving the helm, cockpit, engine room, or arch area a practical mix of general illumination and low-glare color light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhite output is rated at 300 lumens, with color output rated at 150 lumens. The light draws less than 0.5 amps, includes a 3-way switch on the end of the housing for color, white, and off, and has an IP67 waterproof, non-submersible rating for spray, washdowns, and exposed marine locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 1.5-inch diameter housing works as a replacement for many existing fluorescent T-top light housings, which makes it useful when updating older lighting without changing the whole mounting setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e108 LED layout with white light plus a second low-glare color light for night use around the helm or cockpit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e300 lumens from the white LEDs and 150 lumens from the color LEDs for a clear difference between task lighting and softer night lighting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-way switch at the end of the light toggles between color light, white light, and off.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow draw of less than 0.5 amps helps limit battery use during evening checks, rigging, cleanup, or dockside work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67 waterproof, non-submersible rating suits areas exposed to spray and washdowns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpact-resistant polycarbonate lens helps protect the light in active areas such as T-tops, arches, and engine spaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14-foot wiring cable gives installers room to route the hard-wired connection cleanly through tubing or overhead structure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting clips are included for installation on compatible tube light mounting points.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis T-top tube light is offered in two color configurations. Both versions use the same 108 LED tube light format, 1.5-inch diameter, hard-wired installation, end-mounted 3-way switch, low current draw, IP67 waterproof non-submersible rating, polycarbonate lens, and 14-foot wiring cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe difference between the variants is the secondary light color. White light is used for general visibility, while the blue or red option gives a lower-glare light choice for night running, chart checks, cockpit activity, or helm-area use when full white light is not wanted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF38-2060B-1: White with blue light. The blue setting gives the boat a clean accent light while still keeping the white output available for work light use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF38-2060R-1: White with red light. The red setting is a common choice for chart reading and night use around the helm because it is easier on the eyes than full white light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a hard-wired tube light, so installation should be planned around wire routing, switch access, and the existing T-top or arch structure. The 14-foot wiring cable gives enough length for many overhead installs, but the route should still be checked before removal of the old light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe universal replacement format is meant for many standard fluorescent T-top light housings. Before ordering, compare the 1.5-inch diameter, mounting point layout, and available wiring path with the light currently on the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis light is a strong match for center consoles, fishing boats, and cruising boats that need overhead lighting under a T-top, on an arch, or in an engine room. The white setting works well for cleanup, rigging, inspections, and general visibility, while the color setting is useful when a softer light is preferred after dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the housing is rated for spray and washdowns but is not submersible, it belongs in exposed above-deck or protected machinery spaces rather than locations where it may sit underwater.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TACO Marine","offers":[{"title":"White\/Blue","offer_id":52023080681653,"sku":"QBP443918-V9","price":151.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White\/Red","offer_id":52023080714421,"sku":"QBP443918-V5","price":151.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1335310_qbp443918.jpg?v=1780191683","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp443918","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
