So...I have a legal question. You aren't running you red/green nav lights or anchor light in the video. What is the law about running with these on instead of the required Nav and Anchor Lights?

Murray they are in Texas

Sac A Lait Slayer, they work for more purposes than I intended them for, baitfish draw and night fishing, I also got security on the water for me. They have a video up with baitfish draw, I have never had as many baitfish around the boat. When I get it back out I will video the baitfish and post it. 1 year warranty with my lights.

LEGALITY, Don told me they filmed the video without the naval and anchor lights on only to demo the lights for that short video at 1am at a ramp in a small river to send to me. I stopped at the TPWD office in Rockport two weeks ago, lights are legal as they told me they were when I bought them. As long as lights do not distort the size of the boat and you are still running with your nav and anchor lights game warden said and I quote, "wish everyone had a set at night if you ask me". They are legal for both the state and federal navigation laws.

Price I see has been posted above, I actually paid about the same but did not get the dimmer and paid them to install the lights, honey said ok with my tax return. I could easily have installed them myself.

I called and told Don about putting the pics up on the TFF today, he is going to register and answer these questions, I hate to speak on their behalf.

So did you buy them direct or do the have dealers? I do not see any contact info on their website other than sending them an email?

I've experimented with green LED's and haven't had much luck with them. We fished with some on the front of the boat and a regular green light on the rear. The green LED's just did not put out that much light. But then again, the lights on your boat look plenty bright.
