Features:
Specs:
The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The housing and lens are sonically sealed together to create a single unit, which means that water will not get into the light and damage the diodes or circuit board.
Recessed-mount trailer lights install underneath a housing or a grommet, which is often sold separately. These lights will extend into the mounting surface and require that a hole be cut into your trailer.

6-7/16" x 2-5/16" Oval. 4-Function, waterproof light acts as brake, tail, turn, and backup light. Recessed mount with grommet (sold separately). Accepts 2-prong plug for backup and 3-prong plug for tail light. 16 Diodes. This is the third boat trailer that I have used these lights on. While the backup lights aren't "daylight" bright they do a pretty good job. (it's my understanding that "back up lights" are regulated as to total light output) If you need more light you could always use a seperate "work light" in addition to your regular stop/turn/tail light assembly. One of the nice things about these lights is that they fit in the standard oval mounting hole as a regular oval tail light assembly. Another is that the "white" LED's turn "red" when the stop or turn function is activated.
I like the fact that I can have (at least a fair amount) of light to aid in backing the trailer at night down those pesky dark boat ramps. They also come in handy to alert others that you are backing up.
As a technical note: the back up light gets it's ground from inside the tail light NOT from the white (ground) wire from the back up light pigtail. I other words, if you apply power to the red wire and ground the white wire.......the backup light WILL NOT ILLUMINATE! That does not mean you have received a bad light from Etrailer. The white wire on the back up light pigtail (2 pin,....1 red and 1 white) IS NOT USED. You must use the white wire from the stop/turn/tail light pigtail (3 pin,...1 red, 1 white, and 1 black) as your ground for the back up light to work. The earlier version of this light had the grounds separated.
Awesome lights, nice and bright. Being able to add reverse lights to my boat trailer is very helpful on dark boat ramps. The Combo light that fits in my existing grommet was nice since there was no room to add an additional light.
Quite pleased with these lights, have changed both of my trailer lights to this product, one standard the other a boat trailer. Recommend.
These lights are great. The backup lights work awesome! No more dragging the brake while backing up just to be able to see when I'm backing up.
On a 7 pin round trailer plug connect to the "reverse lights" not the center auxiliary power pin. Connect both of the pigtail grounds up to make them work.
Excellent product, well made. They do the job for my needs. I'm usually backing in the dark, and needed reverse lights to illuminate the driveway markers.
Easy install .. quality product. Good reverse light bright led’s
I wanted to add the extra visibility of reverse lights on my car hauler so that when I'm backing up to leave the track people can see me and I can see them better.
These lights did not disappoint very bright and operate as intended, I highly recommend getting the pigtails made for them it makes the wiring job so much easier.
I didn't really need them to be submersible but its nice piece of mind knowing they are not going to fail when subjected to rain and elements.

working great! Nice bright reverse lights in a package no bigger than the original braketail lights.
I seem to ve having an issue with the light staying in the grommet, have lost 1 light so far. Don't know if excessive dust has anything to do with it.
The product works well and allowed me to add recessed backup lights to my boat trailer using the existing openings cut into the frame. I would recommend these for anyone who wants to add backup lights and retain good brake and running lights.

The trailer lights have worked well. I do wish the backup lights were a little brighter.

Product works as it should, i still enjoy the product, the light output is bright, the only down side i have about it, which the reverse lights would have a slide blueish tint to it to mach up my other led lights on the truck , the white on the product/reverse lightover time turns a slide yellow like a regular halogen light buldBut over all great product
I bought two of these to help me back my boat trailer up the driveway at night. Driveway curves and can be a challenge when it is dark. While these lights are not like headlights, they light up behind the trailer just fine and have made backing up at night quite easy. They are almost one year old and still work perfectly.
Would not hesitate to recommend these for anybody. All you need to add is an extra wire tied to the blue backup light / backup solenoid wire at the trailer connector. I simply ran a blue wire down both sides to keep it simple and clean. No new holes to drill or no trying to figure out where to mount the backup light, the LED light fits in the standard oval trailer light opening with no modification needed other than the new wire.
They work quite well. Backup illumination is so-so, but I wanted backup lamps to notify others around me and they are definitely visible even in daylight. No leaks as of the 1 year mark. Only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was due to the bullet style connectors used on the back. These are not fully waterproof connections. I know these style of connectors are an industry standard, but it's an aging standard and newer trailer manufacturers are wising up and starting to move to more of a "sealed" type electrical connection.
These lights are so much better than the ones that came on my trailer factory. Now I can see the curbs at the boat ramp at night.

These lights are still working great after a year of many trips to the lake fishing tournaments and fun fishing. Love them.
Upon placing an order i had not received tracking number of shipment and called to see where order was after 7 days. While there was some confusion they found the problem that supplier was no longer making a stainless light bracket and originally said they were 2 more weeks out on getting the powder coated ones. 3 days later may shipment was received in full with everything. Even though there was an error in the order at least you could contact someone and get immediate assistance. This will be my first choice for parts as they have given great service on all my previous orders as well. Keep up the great service hard to find these days.
This is a great product for the cost. It seems to be well constructed and, for me, easy to use. Optronics evidently did their homework. The L.E.D.s are bright and clear. Wiring is simple with the (separately sold) quick connect harnesses. In my specific application, I mounted (4) of these on the rear of my trailer to double up the backup light brightness. They work great.
Looked for something like this for years. I didn't know they actually made them. They light up the street for a half block. I can back my 20 foot car trailer any where in the dark. The measurements are slightly different from the standard light but they fit perfectly in the grommet. The best part is (I will never have to replace them again.)
Tough to find item! I like to have reverse lights on my trailers. It's nice to have the extra light when backing them into a parking spot, or in my storage spot. 6" ovals with tail, blinker, brake AND reverse lights are tough to locate, but these fit the bill just perfectly. The reverse lights are plenty bright, and provide the light I need to see what's going on.
Product worked exactly as described... made for an easy conversion of my original LED tail lights to upgraded models that feature integrated backup lights.
Good light... Easy replacement
I do not know why all trailers do not come with backup lights. Now it is possible without all of the extra wiring and lights needed. My trailer came with Optronics/Fusion lights already so all I need to do was add the wiring to the lights and the extra pigtails.
great light ...very bright. I installed on my car hauler with 20 foot deck...makes night backing so much easier....just bought set for my jet boat trailer
They certainly fill the bill, direct replacement and they always have gotten the job done since I got them. At night I can see where I'm going backing up at night.
Completely sealed, bright and sturdy. Would definitely use these on any tail light project.
Fit perfect and works great. Thanks e- trailer
