Apologies in advance if product information is inappropriate for this forum.
Our company has recently introduced the Kayalite, a rugged, loss-proof stern light for kayaks that overcomes problems associated with poles and suction cups.
Our website also outlines a number of approaches to rigging a kayak so the paddler's night vision is not impaired by light illuminating the bow from the afterdeck -- as it is with pole-mounted stern lights. The majority of solutions for stern lighting compromise safety, visibility and the night vision of the paddler.
The Kayalite offers 2-mile visibility and 200 hours of LED life on a set of AA batteries. It is submersible and buoyant. A link to our site is provided below.
