    Hi everyone !
    It's not finished, but I need your Pros and Cons. Here is my tower spot leds. There will be 2 of this thing on the tower.
    It's pretty easy, cheap and chic to build :
    Some plumbing stuff : ø50mm tube (can be free if you have spare in your garage), a connector to join 2 tubes, 1 rapid ø50mm clamp, and a openable ø63mm clamp. Then, I bought 12V DC 24 SMD Leds, Cool white color.
    Here is my 10$ spot :

    I will then paint everything in black. The rapid clamp will be glued to the 50mm tube.

    I would have put this under the tower, between the tower speaker box and the tower, but there is not enough space. So, it will be up of it.
    Leds seems sealed (opposit to the blue ones used in resin for the underwater spots), it is easy to change it, so I will test if it survives a rainy day ...

    Pros, cons, feeling ?

    Cheers

    As with your other stuff, I think it looks great. Have you run the wiring yet? I didn't see it anywhere.

    Thanks Titan for your comment.
    No, it's not yet wired. I will do it the same way than the speaker box, with sealed connectors.
    Keep watching

    Hello guys !
    Finally the spot leds are finished. I didn't drill the top of my tower yet, I want to wait to see it on water by night before.
    it looks promising and powerful !!
    Give me your opinion :

    I wanted to chime back in on the thermostat housing issue -- since the boat is back from Winter, I took a photo showing the housing. I'm fine running a regular automotive t-stat.
