Perko 0602 Vertical Mount LED Side Lights, Red/Green, 2nm, For Boats Under 20 m, 1 Pair

Overview

The Perko 0602 LED Side Lights is a low-profile pair of red and green LED navigation sidelights for replacement use on power-driven boats under 65.6 ft. (20 meters). The lights are rated for 2 nautical miles of visibility and are available for 12 volt or 24 volt electrical systems, so the selected variant should match the vessel wiring.

This series is made for vertical side mounting where separate port and starboard navigation lights are needed near the bow. Each light uses LED technology with low heat and only 10% of the energy draw of standard lights, which helps reduce load on the boat’s electrical system during night runs, early departures, or long returns to the dock.

Key features

• Red and green LED sidelights for port and starboard navigation marking on power-driven vessels under 20 meters.
• 2 nautical mile visibility rating for proper navigation light coverage in the intended vessel class.
• Available in 12 volt and 24 volt versions to match common marine electrical systems.
• Low-profile housing with a compact 3-1/4 in. length, 2 in. width, and 1-1/8 in. projection.
• LED draw is 1.2 watts per light on 12 volt models and 2.4 watts per light on 24 volt models.
• Uses #8 mounting screws, which helps when replacing existing sidelights in the same general mounting area.
• Finish options include chrome plated bronze, white epoxy coated bronze, and black polymer.

Variants

This Perko 0602 series is offered in six configurations. The options vary by finish and voltage, with chrome, white, and black housings available for both 12 volt and 24 volt installations.

The core light format remains the same across the range: red and green LED sidelights for vertical mounting, 2 nautical mile visibility, and replacement use on boats under 65.6 ft. The main buying decision is matching the voltage to the vessel system and selecting the housing finish that fits the surrounding deck hardware, topside color, or helm styling.

Installation and fit

These sidelights are intended for vertical mounting near the forward port and starboard sides of the vessel, where the red and green sectors can be seen correctly from ahead. Before installation, confirm that the mounting surface gives the lights a clear field of view and does not place rails, pulpits, canvas, or other hardware in the visible arc.

The compact housing helps when replacing older sidelights in tight bow areas. The listed dimensions are useful for checking clearance against rub rails, toe rails, anchor lockers, or molded recesses before drilling or reusing existing holes.

Electrical details

Select the 12 volt version for boats with a 12V DC navigation light circuit and the 24 volt version for vessels wired around a 24V DC system. Each light draws 0.1 amps, so the pair keeps current demand low while still covering the required red and green running light function.

As with any navigation light replacement, wiring should be kept clean, strain relieved, and protected from moisture. Check polarity, circuit protection, and switch function before final mounting, then test the lights at night or in low light to confirm the port and starboard colors are visible from the correct angles.

Materials and finishes

The chrome and white versions use bronze housings, with chrome plating on the chrome finish and white epoxy coating on the white finish. The black version uses a polymer housing. This gives the series practical finish choices for classic brightwork, white topsides, or darker hardware layouts.

Use cases on board

These lights suit owners replacing separate red and green bow sidelights on powerboats under 20 meters, especially where a low-profile LED option is preferred over older incandescent lights. They are a practical fit for coastal cruising, fishing boats, tenders, and runabouts that need dependable navigation lighting for dawn departures, night operation, or poor-visibility returns.
