[QUOTE="muskiemike12, post: 265826, member: 4897"] Cody I too have had those D-cell battery powered nav lights not work for me. I can tell if the stern light goes out, but it's dang near impossible to tell if the bow light goes out while you are running. I gave up on those flashlight style nav lights about 7 years ago now. Put in the removable pole style made by attwood and I have never had a problem since I have switched. Mine are not fused, are connected by alligator clips and I don't have marine grade wire and they always work. Although, apparently when I'm sleeping in my 14' tin and my generator starts on fire and I get broadsided by a cruiser I may regret it later for not using the best wire. :lol: Sorry about that there!
