Have to thank Mainsail again :)



One of the ONLY things that did work on Seafever were the cabin lights :)



But with only 1/2 the lights on and drawing 1.65 amps and the head and forward bulbs drawing .96 amps each it was a bit OUT of control



With last seasons shakedown out of the way and plans to do much more overnights on the boat this year the almost 4 amp draw was out of the question :eek:

I have to say hats off to them for making a bulb that works in ALL the old fixtures so well



YOU have to be careful as there freaking bright beyond anything you could expect and while they claim 10 watt equivalent it seems conservative :cool:



So now the main cabin is lighted like daytime on .34 amps now i just have to watch out for lightning :laugher

I just took the TV/VCR out of my 26M a couple weeks ago. Really! The teak stained plywood cabinet as well. I am going to do a lamp cord exorcism and a complete rewire and all LED lights. I will post a few frightening wiring pictures when I get a chance.
I picked up a 5M roll and plan to put most of that between the upper inside liner and the hull. On a few different switches of course. If not it would be like looking at the sun. They are crazy bright!
