Partsam Boat Trailer Guide Post Pipe Light Set - Bright LED Safety

In this review the Partsam 2pcs Boat Trailer Guide on Post Pipe Light Set is evaluated as a practical upgrade for trailer owners who launch or recover boats after dark. The bottom line: these patented, SMD LED guide lights are for owners who want brighter, forward-facing visibility on 2-3/8' PVC guide posts to make driving, loading and backing at a ramp safer and easier. Installation is straightforward for basic wiring and the lights provide clear tail, turn and brake signals that improve night-time visibility compared with low-mounted trailer lamps.

Key Features

• Patented SMD LEDs: Built-in advanced SMD type LEDs deliver a noticeably brighter output than regular LEDs to help guide the boat in low light.
• Full lighting function: These guide lights include tail light, turn signal and brake light functions so the trailer communicates clearly to other drivers.
• Mounts on 2-3/8' PVC: Designed to fit standard 2 in PVC with 2-3/8 in outside diameter, so common guide-on posts slide into the housing easily.
• IP67 waterproof rating: The sealed design protects the lighting from water exposure during launching and trailer use.
• Simple wiring: Color-coded wires separate ground, low and high brightness leads for the tail lights and a straightforward top guide light wiring scheme.
• Pack of two with hardware: The set includes two guide lights and spare screws to secure the assemblies in the PVC housings.

Who It's For

Boat owners who frequently launch or recover their vessels after sunset and want clearer side guidance from the cab will benefit most from these guide pole lights. They are suitable for ski boats, fishing boats and sailboat trailers that use 2 in PVC guide posts and for anyone who wants forward-facing amber visibility in addition to standard rear lamps.

Those who need an all-in-one sealed light with basic wiring and no custom housings will like the ease of use, while buyers seeking ultra-heavy duty metal housings or multi-function smart lighting should look elsewhere.
