They really don't light up much of anything, and are illegal to run with on open water. You are better off with a really powerful handheld spotlight.

As Sydwayz said. There really a waste. Unless its pitch black out and your ideling into a cove or dock they might help.

^^^^^^^^^^^ That's why they are called "docking lights"! It is night & day without them vs with them putting the boat on the lift at the slip at night. Other than that, they are NOT like head lights on a car for running the lake.
