What Gauge Is The Wiring For The Pigtails That Connect To GloLight LED Backup Light # BUL111CB?
Question:
What gauge wire and butt connectors do I need to install BUL111CB. I bought the light, pigtail, and Mount from you already. Need a waterproof setup since this is going on a boat trailer.

Expert Reply:
The Pigtails # A45CB and # A49PB for the GloLight LED Backup Light # BUL111CB both use 18 gauge wiring. The Deka Heat Shrink Butt Connectors # DW05743-5 will allow you to make your wiring connections water tight. For the plugs you will need to use Dielectric Grease # 11755 to keep moisture out of the connectors and prevent wiring shorts.
