Cabin lighting
 
Was wondering what type lights are the best for interior cabin lighting besides the single 12v bulb? . 12v L E D , 12v neon strips (like car underbody) A C rope type? Also what about an ac dc converter for a fridge or microwave or lighting ?

I bought these and they work great. You can screw them in place or use the double face Velcro tape and remove when needed like a flashlight. AAA batteries so no extra wiring, 3 different brightnesses push the face on and off.

The 2007 IBEX show winning Apeiron LED Tri lights.

Yachtlights has them as well.

Each light can have up to 3 colors- flipping it on an off changes the color

You can see a pict of them in blue in the Laveycraft forum (unde r out of the mold Im blown away)

I put 10 in the cockpit and 10 in the "stabin cabin".
I also put Amphibians super blue cree led's on the transom

Sorry I can't see this well. Are the lights on the transom or the end of bunks?
