After wanting a flood light for a while now I finally got one. this one. 10-30v 15 WATT LED HIGH POWERED ALUMINIUM FLOOD LAMP (eBay item 120688004688 end time 03-Mar-11 21:16:10 AEDST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats
I struggled to think of a way to fit it in such a way that it could be removed and fitted as needed, rather than having it mounted full time.
You can see how I mount it in the pictures (in the next post), by using the locator part of a pad bolt setup. I stretched it out to fit the screw holes on my canopy latches, then drilled a hole in the center to take the flood light mounting bolt, then I used silicone to hold the nut in behind it so I can just screw in the light assembly and plug it in. I also squeezed a little silicone into the nut so I can choose the direction I want to point it without it flopping around. I'm pretty happy with it so far, I'll get some shots of it in the dark soon too. hope you like it.
