These are award winning LED navigation lights. They have the distinction of being the only MCA approved LED lights on the market today. The advantage of LED lights is massively reduced power consumption versus a conventional light.
A typical nav light (above) will consume about 25 watts of power. The Lopolights for up to 12M boats consume 0.7 watts and are visible 1 nautical mile away.
The ones we bought are suitable for a larger vessel (12-50M), so consume more power (4.6W) but are visible 2 nautical miles away...
Anyhow... Online chandleries, such as Mailspeed and TCS sell these for more than £125 each.
Online Chandlery Price £250
Ebay Price £87
Savings £163
That works out at us paying 31% of the discounted online chandlery price making it a massive 69% saving!
