Optronics STL56 Series LED Combination Tail Light Diagram

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 or P3-Rated Lights

Diagram of light spread for P2 rated light

A P2-rated or P3-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.

Great replacement for the original incandescent tail light on my 1997 Shorelander boat trailer. Same hole pattern, so no drilling.



by:

I bought these to replace the taillights with incandescent bulbs on my Sea-Doo trailer. They seemed sturdy, and water proof. Installation was easy, no new holes to drill. After a year they’re still working good and don’t appear to be leaking.



by:

These are on a boat trailer. They have been submerged in water dozens of times and still work perfectly. Very satisfied



by:

I replaced this passenger side tail light once from Etrailer about a year ago. It was broken off last week by a maintenance guy, moving trailers in our storage lot. I wanted the same light again....great price, easy to install, and included all the parts. It really is submersable and brightly lite.I always shop Etrailer for all kinds of parts, ahead of other companies. Great customer service.



by:

Thought I was ordering 2 lights for around $40 to find out it was only 1! Contacted e trailer and was told they'd issue a return for the crazy high price of $24 for shipping. Will never do business with such a rip off company again! Buyer beware!!



by:

WOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!! These lights are BY FAR the brightest I have ever seen! Even with only the tailights on, they are STUNNINGLY INTENSE! Can't go wrong getting them, easy to install, solidly (REAL SOLID) built, look like they are very durable too. Absolutely and totally impressed and well worth the money. Put other LED and incandescent lights to shame!! JUST BUY THEM, YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY HAPPY!!



by:

Replaced the jet ski trailer light perfectly! Lighting is much brighter than the stock incandescent bulb in all modes and light disbursement is very good, even from the sides.

A year later and these are still going strong and still very, very bright. Soooo worth it!



by:

No more bulbs to worry with. It fit perfectly on my trailer. It lights up very clearly. The cost is competitive but the quality surpasses....



by:

I want to thank you for all your help with my trailer you were more helpful than you realize. So this is my trailer for a 22' Flats Cat shallow draft Catamaran. I totally dismantled my trailer and buffed by hand with a wire buffer and sand blasted in some spots and applied multiple coats of some very expensive galvanize paint (Z.R.C.). I installed all new C. E. Smith Carpet (about 80'), seven new LED waterproof lights, new springs, new equalizers, new tongue jack, new wench, new safety chain, new chain brackets, all new SS hardware and a 35' long wiring harness.
I was able to send only one review with a picture of the safety chain and brackets. I'm having a little trouble with the rest..oh some of these items were bought locally or from your competitors, until I found ETRAILER. Your prices were cheaper for the exact same things. Your helpful how to videos were helpful. And Rose, your personal helpful knowledge made my buying experience very pleasant, I actually enjoyed talking to you! Thanks to ETRAILER and specifically to Rose G.



by:

It was a perfect match to my existing LED unit that went out after 8 years of service. etrailer had it in stock, making it a no brainer where to order it from.....and I always get good service from them.

Just what the old trailer needed. Easily installed and the trailer is ready to take my boat out!

Thankyou Ashley e for helping me get my new light.just when you give up looking for people who care you find a company that goes the extra mile and have people still giving that old fashion service!!have a great day!!

Mama say the reason yore trailer ain’t doing too good is cause you need to call Patrick and his great team to ship you whatever you need to make yore trailer look like a super star



by:

I have been more than pleased with the quality and performance of the Optronics brand lights! These are no exception!

This tail light assembly is a direct replacement on my ShoreLander trailer. The running lights, including four on the side, are a nice feature. The brake/signal light are more intense as expected. Lastly, the dimensions and mounting holes allowed me to bolt them into place without issue!

I, like others, am amazed at the brightness of the lights. They are a huge upgrade over my existing incandescent lamps! I am looking forward to no more burnt/broken bulbs!

I have purchased Optronics tailslights in the past, and am purchasing again as I like the quality/performance of the taillight assemblies. I would buy again and I would recommend to others as well!



by:

Works great. Mounted directly in place of original incandescent one.



by:

Shipping faster than scheduled!



by:

Good light, has worked well as a replac ement.



by:

I have had incandescent tail lamps burst because they got submerged in water. The housing was supposed to be watertight. This one looks like it will actually withstand some water pressure



by:

I mounted these lights on my Kayak trailer and are super bright and easy to install!!!!
You will be very satisfied with these lights



by:

Quality LED lights. Easy to install and one year later they are still working well.

Love them! They are very bright. Exactly what I wanted.

@Jerome We're happy that your LED trailer taillights are still working well for you!

Great customer service! I ordered a replacement light for a boat trailer, the first item was damaged during shipping, contacted etrailer and received another item the same week! Friendly, helpful staff.

Great replacement light

Oh, no! I will have our customer service team reach out to you about this. Thanks for letting us know!



by:

First, the products are great coming as described and install was pretty easy. Videos also helpful. Make sure you have a good ground to the trailer otherwise the light will not work as designed. I'm glad I called them before I ordered because otherwise I would have ordered two right lights. (I did not see the left light) I might suggest that etrailer add a note to each product description referencing the complementary (right or left) tail light to make a set. This would have gotten me to the correct items without a call. That said, Jonathon in customer service was helpful and identified the correct items. Order received in good shape as expected. I would highly recommend these guys. Good products, fair price, good service.

  • Matching Passenger Side for Optronics LED Trailer Light # STL56RB
    Sounds like you are looking for the matching passenger side to match the # STL57RB that you referenced. For that you'd need the part # STL56RB and you'd be set. I attached an install video for these for you to check out as well.

  • Rewiring Boat Trailer for 7-Way to Use LED Lights
    There are a number of things you will need if you want to re-wire your boat trailer to use LED lights and you should start with Junction Box # 3375601100 and 7-Way # HM20041. Keep in mind you will also need Ring Terminals # 44-5310A and Loom Clamps # A0500 For LED lights I highly recommend checking out the LED Trailer Tail Light # STL57RB (Driver's side) and # STL56RB (Passenger's side). These are submersible lights with a total of 40 diodes and have mounting holes that are 2" center to...

  • Replacement Tail Lights For Karavan 6' x 12' Single Axle Trailer
    For trailer tail lights you need to measure the overall width of your Karavan 6'x12' single axle trailer. So you will need to measure to the widest part of the fenders which appears it will be roughly 96" wide. Based on images I could find it appears your trailer uses the LED Trailer Tail Light Driver # STL57RB and Passenger # STL56RB sides.

  • Installing New LED Lights on 2011 Karavan Boat Trailer
    It is true that a trailer ground wire will usually be white but there is never a guarantee that every trailer's wiring follows that convention. It is also indeed unusual for a ground wire to be fused; normally that fuse would be on the hot side of the circuit; but in fact having fuses in trailer wiring at all is rather unusual so it may be that the item you found (and thanks for the photo) is simply a connector used to extend the original wiring. If the original trailer lights were the...

  • Can Passenger Side Optronics Light Be Used on Both Sides of Trailer
    If you don't have a need for a license plate on your boat trailer then there's no reason you can't use the Optronics LED Trailer Light - Passenger Side # STL56RB (which doesn't include the license plate light) on both sides of the trailer. The license plate light is the only difference between the two assemblies. The "Over 80/Under 80" designations you see on some lights have to do with the trailer's width. A trailer that is wider than 80 inches requires additional side markers and clearance...

  • Troubleshooting Right Turn Signal Not Working on Trailer
    The type of light assembly (left or right side design) you have mounted on the right side of your trailer should not be an issue in terms of function. The light will still power in correspondence to the circuit it is connected to. If just the right side turn signal is not working, I recommend starting with making sure the light assembly is grounded properly. Depending on its style, it might use a dedicated ground wire or it may simply ground through its mounting hardware. In either case...

  • How to Select Tail Light for Boat Trailer
    While we do not have any way to know the exact taillight you need for your trailer, I can help you figure out how to determine the correct one. It is pretty simple as all you need to do is measure your current light and know if it is surface mounted or recess mounted on your trailer frame. For example, the passenger side LED Trailer Light # STL56RB is a surface mounted light that measures 6-1/16" long x 3-5/8" tall x 2-1/4" deep and has mounting slots that are 2" from center to center....

  • Driver Side Trailer Taillight to Match STL56RB
    Along with the passenger-side LED trailer light # STL56RB you can use the mating driver-side light # STL57RB. This is identical except that it also includes the license plate light function. Both of these submersible lights share the higher-efficiency and brighter output of LEDs as opposed to standard incandescent bulb lights that waste power, generate more heat and require replacement.

  • Replacement Stop/Turn/Tail Light Option for a Karavan Boat Trailer
    I do have a recommendation for you but at this time we don't have the exact replacement lights for your Karavan trailer. We do have the submersible driver side # STL57RB and passenger side # STL56RB lights from Optronics though that measure 6-1/16" long x 3-5/8" tall x 2-1/4" deep. These feature LED lights, a light for your license plate, and carry the stop/turn/tail light functions. I have attached some photos with dimensions as well as review videos for you to check out.

  • How Many Lights Are Included In Rectanglular Submersible LED Trailer Tail Light # STL56RB Package
    The # STL56RB is sold individually and is designed for the right side(passenger side) of the trailer. For the left side(driver side) you would want part # STL57RB. This has the same 6 functions as the right hand but also has the license plate light included. It is also sold with one in the package.

  • What is Needed to Switch my 1992 Trailstar Boat Trailer Over to Led's
    I checked for images of your 1992 Trailstar and all of them that I saw use a light mounted under the angle bracket on each side. To switch out the entire kit with new light wiring and plug to the vehicle use the LED Combination Tail Light Ki part # TLL56RK. This has the new submersible Led's, new wiring and the new plug for your vehicle. If you are just trying to replace the lights and your wiring and trailer connector are in good order then use the LED Combination Trailer Tail Light part...

  • Availability Of Replacement Light To Replace LED Tail Light STL57RB With Missing Lens
    I have a complete replacement light for you, but the red cover on the LED Combination Trailer Tail Light # STL57RB you have is not available by itself. Instead you will need to replace the entire light with the # STL57RB for the driver side, and the # STL56RB if you need the passenger side as well. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Butt Connector Size to Use with Optronics LED Lights # STL57RB and # STL56RB
    The lights you mentioned of # STL57RB and # STL56RB use 16 gauge wire so for butt connectors you'd want to use the blue ones like part # DW05744-5 which are for 16-14 gauge wires.

  • Would the Optronics Trailer Lights # STL56RB Install on a 1995 Shorelander Boat Trailer
    Most likely the Optronics Trailer Light # STL56RB would work on your 1994 Shorelander boat trailer, or at least there would be a way for you to make them work. But I would still check out the mounting area on your trailer to determine how easily they would install on your trailer. The universal mounts are two inches apart on center. This unit also grounds through a ground strap, and if your current trailer grounds through the mounting hardware you would need to run the ground strap to...

    Yes, the Optronics Tall Rectangle Submersible LED Trailer Tail Light, part # STL56RB, will work on your 1987 Shorelander trailer. We have gotten back many reviews of these lights working just fine on Shorelander trailers. I will give you the dimensions of the lights so you can make sure they will fit your trailer.

  • How to Clean Up the Excess Wire When Installing the LED Trailer Tail Light
    In the video for the LED Trailer Tail Light # STL56RB the presenter states that they "would take some time to clean up the wires". Essentially they are just talking about getting the wires pulled up together and secured so they are not hanging down loose. There is not a set way to do this, it is going to depend on your individual situation. Depending on your trailer set-up you may have more or less wire hanging loose. You could simply take a couple zip ties (cable ties) like the Deka...

  • Is the Tall Rectangle Submersible LED Trailer Tail Light # STL56RB Over 80 Approved
    The description is actually in correct where it says it is for an over 80 application. It is only for under 80 applications so it would not be legal for an over 80 trailer. An over 80 tail light will have a wrap around design, like # ST27RPG, so it is visible from the rear and side.

  • Is There a Replacement Tail Light Lens For The Optronics Tail Lights STL56RB & STL57RB
    The lenses on your LED Trailer Tail Lights # STL56RB, and # STL57RB are not replaceable. Instead you will need to replace the entire tail light assembly. Another option is switching to the Optronics LED Combination Trailer Tail Lights # TLL160RK which are submersible and can use the replacement Lenses # A16RB if you should ever have one break in the future.

    If you have the LED Trailer Tail Light - 6 Function - Submersible - 18 Diodes - Rectangle - Red Lens - Passenger # STL56RB you referenced there is not a bulb to replace. Most boat and and Jet Ski trailers will use sealed units because they are submerged so they won't have a bulb replacement option. You'd need to replace the entire unit because it is not designed to be opened up.
