I am about to rewire courtesy and flood lights with led...I'll be interested to hear your opinion.

What did you choose to install?

I used Hella Marine for the courtesy and the stern lights and attwood led bow lights. The hella courtesy lights are awesome! They also fit into the opening of my originals and are easy to install with a hole saw (2"). I decided to go with the pyramid tech. flood over Hella because I thought the Hella looked GOOFEY. They both have 4 LED's and draw only 1.25 amps each. I don't know anyone that has used Hella and have talked to one person w/ the pyramid. He said it was sick. Hopefully I get them by fri!!

The Pyramid Flood are the ones available in different lengths, correct?

If so, the four led one is the smaller one....is it bright enough to light up the workspace?

From what I have read and been told, the 3102 is a wider beam pattern and is for a maximum mounting hieght of 10'. The 3103 is for heights up to 20'. I recieved the lights today!! When it gets dark I will test them out

Tested one of the lights with a fire alarm battery and they are bad azz!!

Perfect beam spread and they are bright as hell. Definately brighter than my old halogens. After the test, I would recommend them. Dont know how they will hold up yet but I think they will last waaaaaaaay longer than any halogen

thanks for the report!

About the length of the light, they are both the same 5.25"
