Want to replace these lights with new led lights. And recommendations?







24 inch across is good. I would like to find two 12 inch lights center mount, that way I can adjust each out, or in. I can find any 12 inch center mount, found these 9 inch ones...

If I flip the bracket around, looks like this...That is 19 inches across...



I think this 20 inch curve light would easily mount...

Rigid /thread

Barney Who put a set on his Pro-Drive, holy cow they are bright. I am having Rick Acouin build me a boat and that is what I am going to use, nothing else to consider.

This 20" light would be good...But $1K for lights?

Guy get a rigid spot flood combo light. Use bull bar clamps to mount it. I've got on my Excel a 20in spot flood facing front a 10in spot flood facing front and right and two duallys facing front and left. Shoot me a pm and il tell u some tips.

Don't even waste your money on anything other than rigid

Ridgid. However since you have a mudbuddy you are used to replacing stuff, so go with the Chinese crap.

FYI, you want a spot/flood combo

Never had a problem with them on my rig. Had to build the enclosure around for protection from timber.




I did a ton of research to find those lights and would recommend them. At that price it's hard to go wrong as long as they last. I hunted all winter with them and they are very, very bright...haven't had any issues. I chose the two lights instead of one bar so I could slightly angle them out and get wider coverage. I have them fastened tight enough so they won't move, but I can adjust if I put enough force on them. They are switched on my accessory panel via my trolling motor plug. I bought the amber covers in thoughts it would help in deep fog. The jury is out on if it helps or not. The amber covers do act as good dust and road debris protectors.

I don't have Judd type money like you to throw at lights, just something else for someone to steal. You realize you could have had 2 yetis for those lights?

I paid 150 bucks for this one. It was damaged while being shipped. I called and told them the box was smashed and a bracket was broken. They sent me a brand new bracket and a brand new light bar as well. I couldn't be happier with both of them. My new Polaris came with the 54 inch curved and it is the shizzle.
This is the 150 dollar one.

A pair of Rigid spot or flood are $150 on Amazon

I have the new Prodrive 12" 120 watt LED light kit and it is awesome. It's a spot/flood light and is everything I need for a bow mounted stand alone light. It is pricey but comes as a kit with everything needed to install.. light, mount, wire, connectors, switch, qd plugs, hardware, etc.. I also have a bunch of Seelite LEDs for bowfishing and Seelite interior LEDs that are fantastic. I'd recommend anything Seelite.

You need a rigid e series 20in spot flood. The pair of lights on amazon are the duallys I use those as my side lighting.

A step above the end series would be the e2 hyperspot, no need for it, the normal entries is plenty. I will have a used pair of duallys soon as I get the time to swap another pair of lights out with a 6in bar

I have Plashlights.com cubes on my Ranger and they've been good ones. I bought the cheap 22" curved bar for the ProDrive. I'm going to try a $50 light of Amazon before I spend Guy money on a more expensive bar.

Guy, I bought one of the rigid knock offs on ebay about 3 years ago. Paid like $80 for a 22 inch led bar. Works perfect. They are even cheaper now. Came with plastic mount, so I upgraded it. I have had no problems. I've used them on my boat in floods, rescues, hunting, rain, sleet, you name it.

I went the cheaper amazon way for my light also. No problems yet. I researched it to death and the consensus was.....yes the top name brands are superior but for what were using them for the knockoff stuff we can get from amazon works GREAT. Mine came with a nice aluminum frame to mount it with. I took the glass off and sealed the glass to the frame with sealant. Just get the size you need for what your doing.

I also went the cheap route.. $40 for the 24" spot/flood combo on my 15' duck boat, $60 for the 24" with 4D lense on my 22' mako. Both work great for what I need. The one on the duck boat has been in perfect working order for 2 years now, going on 3 with some serious neglect in the saltwater and elements. I figure If I have to replace it every year for the next 9 years I'd still be coming out ahead.

Ask your buddy mohunter. His turned out very nice.

Just go buy the cheap camo ones at Tractor Supply, they come with a DD sticker, guaranteed limits every time out, provided you don't crash on the way to the hole.

The lights will probably be the cheapest investment on a duck boat, why scrimp on safety?

If money is no option then I would buy the best money could buy. But money sometimes is an option...and there is plenty of support from guys using the cheaper stuff that you do not have to spend top dollar for a boat light....and that safety was/is not compromised. Or do you have evidence/proof that cheaper lights are a safety issue?

Plashlights is located here in Texas (League City I believe) and puts out a quality product. I have a 12" mounted on my duck boat and after 3 seasons of abuse, it's still working perfectly. I would never spend the kind of money that Rigid wants for their lights, but that's just me. You can get lights as good as rigid, or very close to it, for less than half the cost and most of them include a great warranty as well. The market is plenty saturated, you have many options!

Rigid is the yeti of the light world is the conclusion I've drawn from this thread

I mounted a rigid on my yeti!

Well hell, why didn't you tell me that a long time ago. Rigid is ordered.
