Common Concerns Answered
Is the 9/16" mounting hole size standard?
While 1/2" is more common for some applications, the 9/16" mounting hole is precisely specified for this BEP indicator. Ensure your panel preparation accommodates this dimension for a secure installation. Competitor Cole Hersee also uses a 9/16" hole, offering a comparable fit for specific installations.
Does this product comply with California Proposition 65?
This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning, a standard disclosure for many products sold in California. It signifies compliance with state safety regulations, and does not necessarily indicate inherent risk when used as intended on a vessel.
Are the LEDs user-replaceable if they fail?
No, this BEP LED Pilot Indicator Light utilizes solid-state LED diodes that are designed for longevity and are not user-replaceable. This feature ensures a maintenance-free experience, as the LEDs are rated for extended operational life without the need for bulb changes, a common characteristic across comparable models like the Cole Hersee PL-612-R-BP and Blue Sea Systems 8011.
