Well it can be a bit of a search for a correct bulb, at reasonable price, and the manufacturers often don't always give very clear info. I've been looking at LED festoon bulbs to convert a new Perko horizontal mount stern light on my 27 (the small 'dome' type), mounted in the teak trim on the ster

Jim, I spent 30 years in the regulatory field. There's always some fine points to compliance. There's differences between regulation, enforcement policy, equipment certifications, etc. There is the occasional Coastie that will try to jam an enforcement policy up your nose but in the end, the re
