Hey John,
I just ordered two double whites, when I am at the middle grounds at night I'll keep an eye out for your new lights.

Are you making spreader lights that will fit on a t-top?

I can retro fit some LEDs into an existing spreader. I don't manufacture a spreader housing.

I just ordered two square double green underwater lights, a spreader would also be on my list if you were to make them.

Will 4200 or 5200 stick to the plastic? I was thinking of removing the flange where the screws go and just glueing it onto the transom, for a real clean look (mine is coming with wires out the ******.

Yup.....5200 sticks very well, I have tested it. I am guessing that 4200 will stick just as well. Just wipe the area to be glued down with acetone because there may be mold release still on the case. If you want to cut off the lip with the mounting holes you can, this plastic is very easy to work with. It cuts and sands very nice.

Just installed three double square white on my buddies boat. This is a 32' Wellcraft St Tropez with straight inboards. On a scale of 1-10 and 10 being crystal clear I would say that this water is a 5 or 6 at best.

And again, the pics don't do it justice.

How/Where did you install them on the straight inboard boat - Please let me know, I might be interested in 3.

Also - Im sure you posted this already - but what is the "draw" per light. Thanks!

Each double unit is around 1.2 amps.
