Common Concerns Answered
Are the included mounting screws durable enough for marine use?
While some users have noted the included mounting screws are of lower quality, it is recommended to use marine-grade stainless steel screws for optimal durability and corrosion resistance. This ensures a secure and long-lasting installation, mitigating concerns about fastener longevity.
Will this light fog up or allow water ingress despite the IP rating?
The Scandvik LED Courtesy Light boasts an IP65 rating, signifying substantial protection against dust and water jets. While occasional reports of condensation exist, these are often attributable to installation variables; proper sealing during installation is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the IP rating and preventing internal moisture accumulation.
How long can I expect the LEDs to last?
LED technology is inherently long-lasting, and this unit is designed for marine environments. Proper installation and connection to a stable 12V DC power source will ensure optimal performance and longevity of the LED diodes, minimizing concerns about premature failure.
