activated by a water switch so as you dunk the trailer they kick on, light up the trailer from underwater so you can see where it is at night?

pretty trick, anyone done it?

Looks great!
Good idea!

Very ingenious! What kind of water switch is he using, bilge pump switch?

Michael

some use a bildge switch but some use a switch that uses water to make the connection so there is no moving parts. the power comes fromt he running lights. so the switch only has power when hooked to a truck thats On, and then it needs to be under water to activate. SOME will wire in a separat hand switch so they can turn them on once out of the water.

How dependable are those lights after a dunk in salt water?

Well the thread shows them using rollsof water proof strips.

then attaching to a water switch... I am thinking for under 150 (104 is 4 LED stips,) makein 2 32 foot long underwater lights and a switch and wireing and its done...

Me thinks the heck with the switch, they would look pretty pimp going down the highway like that.

Where do you get such a switch?

I see that setup on ski boat trailers alot. Looks good!

Or ones that run up the trailer like a real runway...
