[C320-list] Deck light LED replacement for halogen?

[Dave Hupe]

 Doug maybe this will help you https://forums.sailboatowners.com/threads/thanks-a-lot-perko.195756/
My 1994 boat has what I think is a Perko 170BMD12V combined steaming/deck light and it requires PERKO® Cat. No. 0070DP1CLR 12V, 15W for the steaming/masthead sectionand PERKO® Cat. No. 006812V20W for the deck light section. My deck light has been burned out since I bought the boat and I see is $33 at Fisheries Supply,  If it burns out at a frequency as you mention, it might be very worthwhile instead to replace the whole fixture with a new one having LED lamps. I've checked them out a little before and they are not very expensive (respectively ..... especially compared to bulb prices).

 All,

My 1996 model has the old style mast light fixture which takes this halogen bulb for the deck light.

In the 12 years I've owned my boat, the bulb has burned out 3 times. Tired of replacing it and looking for an LED option that might, hopefully, last longer.

Any ideas?
