Peterson 169A Piranha LED Clearance Marker Light Dimensions

Sealed, Waterproof Trailer Light

The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The circuit board is sealed, which means that water will not damage the diodes or circuit board.


P2-Rated Lights

Diagram of light spread for P2 rated light

A P2-rated light produces a 45-degree angle of light to either side of its centerline for a total of 90 degrees of coverage. This beam pattern can be seen straight on, but it cannot be seen clearly from the side. So this type of light can be used as either a side marker light or a clearance light, but it cannot function as both. If you need both functions, then you must install 2 separate lights on your trailer - one as a front or rear clearance light and one as a side marker light.


Surface-Mount Light

Surface Mount Trailer Light Installation Diagram

Surface-mount trailer lights install using a flange or bracket with mounting holes. These lights lay flat against the trailer surface and only require a small, often pre-existing hole, for wiring. Mounting hardware is used to secure the light to the trailer.

Video Transcript for Review of Peterson Trailer Lights - Clearance Lights - 169A

Today we'll be taking a look at the Peterson Piranha LED clearance or side marker trailer light.This is a submersible light since it's epoxy sealed, so that going to keep all our diodes from any kind of corrosion or any kind of damage. That means we can use this on a marine trailer anytime we're going in and out of the water, or just any other trailer that we want to have an amber clearance light. And we'll know that it's going to be protected from any kind of dirt or debris from getting in there and causing issues.Those LEDs are also going to have an advantage over the old incandescent bulb styles since there's no brittle filaments that can break with these. There's no bulbs to replace. They're virtually maintenance free once you install them in. And they're going to last a lot longer, have a lower power draw, and give you typically a brighter light than you would get with your incandescent bulb.

You have this amber lens going over our white LEDs. It is compatible with 12 volt DC systems.When I hook this up to my power and ground, our black wire will be for the power and then our white wire with the ring terminal on it is going to be our ground. It comes with a number 10 ring terminal already on our ground wire there. So I'll turn on my power .. you can see our LEDs come on.

We'll have those two diodes. Turn out the lights in the studio and you can get an idea of how bright that is.So not super bright, but enough to be DOT compliant and let other drivers know where we are at. This is P2 rated, which means that you can see it head on but then when we turn to the side it's really not as visible. This can be used as a clearance light or a side marker light. It can't operate as both since you can't see it at that full range of view.

Turn the power off. Disconnect my wires. Let's go over some measurements.The light is about 4 and 1/8 inch long, or 4 and a 1/16 inch long. Excuse me. And then about 1 and 1/16 inch wide.

And about an inch thick or about 15/16. The wires coming off the back are about 5 and 1/2 inches long.You can pick up a bracket to go with this. That part number is sold separately, but you can find that here at etrailer.com. And that's going to be part number B169-18. And it's just a little black bracket, but this is going to pop in too. The wires go through the middle, and then you would attach it using the holes here on either side. The hardware to get this mounted up is not included either so you'll have to pick that up separately as well.This is DOT compliant. P2 rated, again. And it has a power draw at 12 volts of 0.03 amps. Input voltage can be between 9 volts and 16 volts DC, and it comes with a 10 year limited warranty from Peterson. Overall, it should be a really nice looking long lasting light for your trailer.That's going to do it for our look at the Peterson Piranha LED clearance and side marker lights. One last measurement I want to give you is the distance between our mounting holes. That's three inches. And that'll do it for our look at the Peterson Piranha LED clearance lights.

Replaced poorly designed lights on a travel trailer with these. The original lamps were not weather proof and used tensioned contacts that were prone to oxidation and corrosion from the elements. These LED lamps are sealed in epoxy so the elements will not affect them. Each lamp has two LEDs and a 6" wiring pigtail.

Not sure its anyones fault but the LED marker lights on my trailer fasten to the wall with screws and today that style is not made as it was in 2017...So i am rating the lights "average" cause till i open the light up without busting it I got to make it work and your lights are just the same as the rest...lights look fine and i will let you know how it works out...

  • Recommended Amber Clearance Light That Measures 4L x 1W and Has 2-Wires for Connection
    If you are looking for an amber clearance light, then I recommend going with the Peterson Piranha Trailer Clearance Light, part # 169A. This light measures 4-1/16 inches L x 1-1/16 inches W and comes with the black and white wiring that you are looking for. It is very similar to the Optronics # MCL65AB that you referenced in your question. You can cut off the ring terminal end of the white wire and use some Butt Connectors, like part # 05731-5, to attach your power and ground wires to...

  • Does Peterson Piranha LED Clearance or Side Marker Trailer Light Have Space In The Back For Wire
    The Peterson Piranha LED Clearance or Side Marker Trailer Light # 169A does have a little bit of space in the back where you could fold in some excess wire. Just be careful if you're folding down the wire from the light near the circuit board so you don't damage anything. That style of insulation can also be trimmed, so if you're having trouble you could shave it down a little to get everything to fit if need be. Also, there is no gasket for this light. It will be mounted directly to...
