[QUOTE="scsdiver, post: 283405, member: 9105"] i cant give out all my secrets now guys! no just kidding these things are very inexpensive. if you search for waterproof led strips on ebay you will find them. i am not sure if i can post a link on here or not. they sell the same lights at autozone,advanced discount, west marine however there ridiculously priced. i had these as i intalled them on our kayaks but i bought a 5meter roll of red and a 5 meter foll of green for about 20 dollars a roll for. if you just want enough lights for a bow about the size of mine a 60cm led light strip would be more than enough and you can cut it down them down to size. you want to get the SMD 5050 led's they 3528 are much cheaper and they are pretty bright but they are not as brights as the 5050 and they are not as efficient battery consumption wise either. you can pick up the small sections for about 2-5 bucks shipped. if you guys like these your going to love our stern lights and courtesy lights. i will take a better pic of them today when i get home so you can see how they install. they are very easy to work with and very waterproof i have them on the bottom of my kayak for night fishing and we may install some on the bottom of the boat after we get it in the water. i have had marine patrol stop me at night just to tell me how bright the lights are tell me how far away they could see them. actually had two sherriff officers come up on me one night and they went about a mile away which was as far as they could go and then came back and said they could see me no problem. my only recomendations is dont put them in a place where you will have to see them there blinding!
