LED Exterior & Interior Lights

New boats usually come with LED lighting, but older or secondhand boats might need upgrades. Discover the best LED boat lights for your vessel at Outback Equipment. For installation tips on interior or exterior LED boat lights, visit our YouTube channel for our Tinny build in action. Why switch to LED boat lights? Often, it's due to replacing older, malfunctioning lights. Additionally, older boats may face challenges in finding replacements for outdated halogen or incandescent fixtures.

Even if your current lights work fine, upgrading offers several advantages. Modern LED boat lights are more efficient, providing more light with less energy. They produce less heat and come in various color options, including neutral, warm, and cool white. LEDs can also emit multiple colors from a single fixture, unlike older lights that need colored lenses for different hues. This is because LED circuits can have various colored diodes on the same board.

What's the difference? Modern electronics, including LEDs, are more efficient and compact. They consume less power, last longer, and produce more light (measured in lumens) in a smaller, more energy-efficient package. The marine industry now offers advanced and affordable lighting options like "white tuning," allowing a single lamp to produce warm, neutral, or cool light. For example, the Relaxn LED floodlight features white and amber light options and full color-changing capabilities. Boat owners can select their preferred color using a touch screen or switch panel, available here.

Types of LED boat lights:

Exterior Lights—These deck lights often need replacement due to damage from water or impact. Overheads can rust or get sprayed by water, especially in harsh conditions.
Interior Lights—Older cabin lights may fail due to filament burnout or breakage. Issues can arise from working behind the headliner or from unavailability of replacement parts.
Underwater LED Lights—Older LEDs or halogen lights may not offer the features or appeal of modern LEDs, which include additional colors or synchronization with music.
Navigation Lights—LED running lights for port, starboard, and stern are brighter, more energy-efficient, and longer-lasting compared to older models. They are also advantageous for sailboats and other weight-sensitive vessels.

Switches and dimmers may also need updating. Halogen and incandescent lights dim differently from LEDs, making older dimming switches incompatible with LED lights. Replacement switches can be found here.

Before shopping for LED boat lights, consider:

Are the lights surface-mounted or recessed?
What are the dimensions of the cut-out and recess depth if recessed?
What is the outer diameter of the bezel?
What is the voltage of the current lighting system?
Is a single-color or bi-color light needed?
What control method do I prefer for the lights?
