Not suitable for salt water

My boat/trailer sinks in the Pacific every weekend, both are washed thoroughly with fresh water after use. I had problems with these lights after 4 weeks and after 6 salt water dives they were completely useless. Do not buy if you regularly launch into the sea.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Vulgarity

I am disappointed in this product

I am disappointed in this product. He is not submersible. I put it on my boat trailer and water got in and stayed in the lens. Now the reflective chrome inside is corroding, it's only 3 weeks old. I've tried sealing it but it's still leaking. There are so many leaks that it is difficult to find and stop them.

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Only available in black

Not submersible! in trailer accessories

These headlights are 'submersible' but they aren't. There are gaskets on the lens caps, but there is no beacon on the lens. There is a 1/2" hole where the wires enter the housing. When I first launched the boat there was water in both lanterns. I am sending them back.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Worked for 4 years before problems arose.

They were really good, bought in December 2014, now in November 2018, some LED segments shine bright and neighboring elements dim. Warranty expired. I disassembled the assembly but the actual LED board and segments are flooded and cannot be repaired. May 2019 Edit: First time since writing this review I've used a pendant and the left light is completely out of chase mode. There is one stuck LED that is much brighter than the others and the surrounding LEDs are very dim. The right light, whichโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Piggy bank price

Great price and very bright.

This review covers both this flashlight and the NV5081. I'm not sure if the reviewer at GA mentioned the tail/running lights not being bright enough for daytime use. Maybe the set you received was defective? The pair I received and the brake lights and turn signals are very BRIGHT! So bright that my friend commented that "people" complained that my taillights were too bright. During the day the rear light/running light doesn't bother me. When my light is on, it's dark. :) You'll need a groundโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here
