It produces 700 lumens of white light with a 100-degree spread beam, giving broad flood-style coverage for work areas, cockpit lighting and onboard visibility without the bulk of a larger fixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis light works with 12 to 24 volt DC systems and draws .9 amps at 12V or .5 amps at 24V. The housing measures 5-1\/8 inches long, 1-3\/8 inches wide and 1\/2 inch high, so it fits neatly on narrow flat surfaces where a flush, tidy installation matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LED chips are silicone potted for an IP67 waterproof non-submersible rating, and the housing uses UV-resistant polycarbonate with a clear self-extinguishing plastic lens and anodized aluminum heat sink. It is also USCG, ISO and SAE certified for Ignition Protection, which makes it suitable for areas where fire safety is a key concern, including engine rooms and battery compartments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e700-lumen white LED output with a 100-degree spread beam for wide deck, cockpit, cabin or under-gunnel coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 to 24 volt DC compatibility for use on common marine electrical systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow current draw of .9 amps at 12V and .5 amps at 24V helps limit load on the boat battery system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67 waterproof non-submersible construction with silicone-potted LED chips for wet marine locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUV-resistant polycarbonate housing with a self-extinguishing clear plastic lens and anodized aluminum heat sink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSCG, ISO and SAE certified for Ignition Protection for use in engine rooms, battery compartments and other safety-sensitive spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat-mount body bolts directly to a surface at least 5 inches long and 1-3\/8 inches wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-foot hidden power cable supports a cleaner installation with less exposed wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting can be handled with a stainless-steel swivel bracket or 3M adhesive tape, depending on the surface and installation plan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flat-mount deck light is offered in two housing colors. Both configurations use white LEDs, the same 700-lumen output and the same 12 to 24 volt electrical range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main difference is the visible housing finish, which lets the light blend with either lighter fiberglass surfaces or darker helm, hardtop and console details.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF38-8800W-1: White housing. This version suits white fiberglass, light-colored hard tops and installations where the fixture should visually recede into the surrounding surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF38-8805W-1: Black housing. This version suits dark consoles, black hardware, powder-coated structures and installations where a darker fixture finish is a better visual match.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe compact body works well where space is limited, including under gunnels, inside bait wells, on leaning posts and around console work areas. The flat-mount layout is straightforward for new installations or replacements when the mounting surface has enough room for the 5-inch by 1-3\/8-inch footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 8-foot hidden power cable helps keep wiring out of sight and gives installers room to route power back through tubing, pipe or nearby structure. Wire chafe guards are included for wire runs through tube or pipe, which is useful on hard tops, leaning posts and similar marine structures where vibration and edge contact can damage wiring over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis light is a good match for boat owners who need a compact flood-style LED fixture for practical illumination rather than decorative accent lighting. It works especially well for deck tasks, rigging areas, tackle prep, bait well visibility, cabin utility lighting and spaces where a low-profile fixture is easier to protect from bumps and washdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the light carries Ignition Protection certification and uses a sealed, non-submersible IP67 construction, it also fits marine service areas where water exposure, vibration and electrical safety all matter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TACO Marine","offers":[{"title":"White","offer_id":52581988565173,"sku":"QBP557259-V1","price":166.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":52581988597941,"sku":"QBP557259-V2","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1335721_qbp557259.webp?v=1780202134","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp557259","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
