Actually it is a tiny circuit board with a superbright white LED on it,the circuit board has a MAX1688 switching regulator,probably temperature compensated,likely switching at very high frequency. led tube lighting LED Spotlight LED Downlight

Regular light bulbs don't do anything at all for them. Flourescent bulbs do,but only if you get the right kinds. Do not buy anything that will also work for an aquarium. Those don't really do anything,and though the packaging will claim they do,it's really false advertizing.  LED Fluorescent LED Par Light LED Flood Lamp

I messaged them back with this in response as my fairly official stance on vendors posting on the forums.

 

Thank you,

I am not adverse to vendors that have innovative products mentioning them on the forums in the appropriate places. If there is a thread already going that you have a product that would solve a problem or fit a need then that would be a great place to introduce yourself and maybe put a link to that product. For example on the existing LED thread that I posted a link to in reply to your post you might list some interior LED fixtures that would work well in a boat. I am currently needing to replace 2 spreader lights on the outside of my boat and am looking for weather and waterproof LED floodlights that use a 12 volts power source that I can mount to the bottom of my spreaders about 20 feet up my mast that will shine down on deck. I you had something that might fit the bill for that we would love for you to mention it there.

Joining a conversation on the forum and mentioning a product that fits in that conversation is entirely appropriate and we will welcome it. However just a generic blurb advertising your business tends to be viewed as spam and the majority of us tend to be fairly hostile towards that as we have to deal with it on a daily basis from hundreds of companies. If you have a product line that our users are excited about and that has great value and performance as testified to by a member we might even give your company a listing of its own on our dedicated recommended vendors page.

You talk about adding leds to your boat from these guys. How about a few pictures and some description of it to show your not just spamming us. I went out on the website and most of the products don't even list a price. From your user account it looks as if you are from the company itself. It would be much more acceptable if you found the existing topic on using LED's on boats on the forum and simply said we are a reseller of LED's that we think would work well with your boat and a link. The exiting topic is at http://downeasteryachts.com/fo.....led-lights

I will be deleting this topic in a day or so.

I ordered LED bulbs to replace the existing bulb fixtures on my old boat one month ago.  As a result, it made a huge diffence in my energy budget, and the lighting in my boat become brighter and more energy-saving. I like my old boat more than ever before. I made a bold try to refit my old boat to a water restaurant.

To my surprise, I found a LED display on the website when I visited the same website the second time. So I tried to purchased one and the staffs of canadaledlighting helped me to installed it. Now I can put my menu and my newly invented products on the led display and it is striking. Now customers coming to my boat to have dinner increase. I feel happy everyday when seeing more and more customers visiting my restautant.
