Tell us more about the flounder lights you have on your boat. What kind are they, and where do you get them.? Nice set up. Thanks. :thumbup:

4" HID's. 35w each with built in ballasts and igniters. They pull about 10 amps on start up, but once they warm up they pull about 6 amps total. 6000k color temp, which is pure white with a hint of blue. They put out about 4000 lumens each, which is about 3x more than a halogen 55w bulb. I got them at oreillys, $140 each I think. I'll see if I can get some night pics later.
