Thumbs up

Just got mine installed tonight and they are GREAT. I got 4 of the 194 style bulbs thinking that 4 would cover all of my lights, but could only use 3 so now I have a back up bulb if ever needed... So it looks like I need to order a 3022x4 LED bulb for my running light, but I am going to call first to make sure.

What is really great is I now have light all over my deck (unlike before) and in the past I was thinking I was going to have to "add" more console lights to cover the blind spots. Well now, I have plenty of light from the forward battery box to the rear casting deck AND they do not wipe out my night vision after looking at them... They also draw next to nothing current wise and will not change color over time either

I also installed one 194 replacement bulb in my anchor light and it is plenty bright enough. The only thing I found is that you may need to pull them out and turn them 180 degrees to get the most amount of light from them in any one spot, but that is easy enough to do and test in any of these 3 light positions on the 190 Bay.

So as I was telling Astro Diver (John) tonight in the chat room. This was the best 20 bucks (including shipping) that I have spent on any upgrade in a long time and I highly recommend getting them from www.superbrightleds.com

Thanks again for the tip John!
