Optronics Light Dimensions

Sonically Sealed, Waterproof Trailer Light

The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The housing and lens are sonically sealed together to create a single unit, which means that water will not get into the light and damage the diodes or circuit board.

I bought 3 lights (1) spare. I lost the brake light function on one about 9 months after installation. Lights are very bright and durable.
Only negative, wires weren't labeled for function/usage.



by:

Two of these lights were mounted on a rear hitch bike rack since the truck tail lights can't be seen with the bikes on the rack. I am extremely happy with the quality and brightness of the lights. Shipping was great and items were packed with care.



by:

I recently purchased the Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Tail, Turn - Submersible - 9 Diodes - Red Lens. This was exactly what I was looking for and it arrived in perfect shape. I definitely plan to buy from here in the future.



by:

The day pic's were from 6:30 p.m. 06/07/19. Notice you can't see the stock taillights from 10 ft. away. Hence my purchase of these LED lights for the angle iron uprights. The night pic's are 2 ft. from my garage door at 9:30 p.m., 06 07/19, and this is what drivers behind me will see. These LED's are slim, well made, water proof, and attach like a breeze. I LOVE THESE LIGHTS!!!!!! As I told Carol, the pigtail wires should be 11/2 to 2ft. instead of 8". My only downside to these lights. I Have 3 trailers and from now on etrailer.com is my go to site!! Thanks a million, great product.

Fantastic! Same as above.



by:

I was looking for lights to add to a receiver hitch cargo carrier for nighttime visibility. These were perfect for size and function. The housings were sturdy, the wiring was sealed and they worked on the first try, as tail lights, turn signal and brake lights. Would definitely recommend these!

Still working perfectly 1 year later!!



by:

Beautiful tail light. Very bright for the brake and turn signal. Fitted it on the back of my trailer with an L bracket.



by:

Don't waste your time and money on Amazon crap. These have been working great for over a year in fresh and salt water with great rinses when done.



by:

I think it will work with my trailer to replace old tail light that were exposed to rocks, ect, and broke off. I have not had time to mount and wire in yet, but hope that will happen soon. Time will tell if it works out.



by:

I wanted additional brake light visibility higher up on rear of my camper. The STD lights were low and partly obscured if I was hauling bikes on their rack. There was no good way to run wiring inside and I didn't want holes as possible leak points. So I mounted these thin, bright LED lights high along outer edges, connected wiring to existing brake lights, encasing wiring in heat shrink tubing and siliconed all in place. Looks good, works great!



by:

Lights were easy to install on rear steel plate of trailer. 3 holes drilled per light (2 for mounting, 1 for wire access). Lights are bright and very visible in daylight conditions. Lights are protected by design of rear steel plates. Very satisfied.



by:

The lights are exactly what I needed to make a light bar for my hitch mounted bike rack. When our bikes were on the rack it reduced the visibility of the cars's stop lights, brake lights and turn signals. The bar rotates so the lights are visible in the rack's up or down position.



by:

These tail lights work great on my custom built wheelchair trailer. They are bright, easy to mount and function as needed. They've been on the trailer for a year with regular use and no problems to date.



by:

Great light, very bright. Only thing is wires aren't labeled to the function they control. Only complaint is length, I wish the light was 3-4 inches shorter.

The wiring functions for each wire on this light are: White wire for ground, Black wire for tail light, and Red wire for turn signal.

Excellent, not one issue



by:

The light itself is an LED light. But it has stop tail turn functions. Which if using it as a third brake light you have to ground it multiple times so that the LEDs do not illuminate when you do not want them to. I used this as a third brake light in my 51 Chevy



by:

I ordered 2 of these lights to install on my bike rack. They work great, nice and bright and easy to wire.

A year later and still working perfectly.



by:

I purchased this light to replace a 3rd brake light on my pick-up topper.the product information and dimensions were vital to my installation and ETRAILER were spot on.The light is bright and looks great, excellent company



by:

Lights are bright and well built, fast shipping, Thank you!



by:

these lights are absolutely blinding. They work great! The pictures are running lights only, NOT Brake Lights!



by:

After adding larger tire carrier on the JK, this was a perfect solution for relocating the brake light. Added a quick disconnect on the inside when the roof is off. Quick and easy install.



by:

After arriving pit bull ate package. etrailer replacement was at no cost. Very happy with customer service, very helpful. Great product, reasonable price. Used as rear fog lights on my SUV and car.Thanks etrailer great job.



by:

Easy to install. temporally connected to wires to verify operation. White wire is ground. Used a step drill to make a hole for the wires.



by:

Great product. Fast shipping. Best customer service!



by:

Good quality and very bright.



by:

Okay, Again smaller than anticipated



by:

I have a home made utility trailer with round tail lights that are big enough that if the front of the trailer is lifted to high the back hits the ground and the tail lights break. these are thin enough that they will not contact the ground and therefore not break. They look good and arrived as advertised. The screw hole on the ends are all plastic. It would have been nice if a metal collar or end was there to keep the plastic from cracking if the screws are over thightened. I just got them and haven't had a chance to see if they work ok or not.

  • Comparing The STL59RB, STL69RRXB, and STL79RB For 80 Inch Wide Trailer
    I'll compare some of the most different aspects of these 3 lights you referred to: The Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Tail, Turn # STL59RB has a clear lens with red LEDs. It is submergible and measures 12-5/8 long x 1 tall x 1/2 inch deep. The Thin Line, Over 80" LED Stop/Turn/Tail Light, 3-Function # STL69RRXB has a red lens with reflector. This has 11 white LEDs.

The lights that are the closest to that size are the following: - 12-5/8" long x 1" tall x 1/2" deep Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL59RB - 12-3/4" long x 1-1/2" tall x 3/4" deep LED Tail Light # DG52435VP These are both surface-mounted lights with three-wire pigtails with the black wire for the tail light, the red wire for the...

  • Can Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL59R Be Used as Stop/Turn Light on Trailer
    You definitely could use the Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL59RB as a standard trailer stop/turn/running light on the sides of your trailer as all of those functions are supported on this light. If you check out the picture I attached you can see a customer of ours who had a similar idea and used them on both sides of the trailer.

  • Installing New 3-Wire Light Assemblies on Trailer
    It sounds like the previous lights on your trailer used the mounting hardware for the ground. Your new LED light assemblies have a separate ground wire, which should be attached to a clean, bare metal surface. You will want to make sure that there is no debris or corrosion on the surface you attach it to, as this may lead to the issues you are having with the running lights. In order to install your new assemblies, the other two wires (which should be black and red) will attach to the...

  • Is a Converter Needed to Add an LED Light to the Back of a Bike Rack
    Trailer lights such as # STL59RB are designed to work with what is called a combined system where the brake lights and turn signals are on the same circuit. This is what the 4-Way flat connector has on your vehicle. If you used a converter such as # 118158 it would separate out the brake lights from the turn signals. If you are using a light that is designed for separate brake and turn signal functions then you would need the converter. But if you are using a trailer light such as # STL59RB...

  • Replacement 12" x 2" Rear LED Light Strip On Motorhome
    The Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light part # STL59RB is the best fit match we have for the 12" x 2" rear light strips on the RV. This strip measures 12-5/8" long x 1" wide. The screw holes will not line up but you can easily drill new ones and fill in the old with silicone. This light works as stop, turn, and clearance. I have attached a full list of trailer light options below.

  • How to Determine Trailer Lighting Requirements for Car Hauler Trailer
    Lighting requirements for trailers over 80-inches wide do vary a bit depending on the trailer's gross weight. The linked article details the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) guidelines for trailer lighting based on trailer size and weight. The standard calls for 2 stop/brake lights only, but you certainly could add a third stop/turn/tail light such as # STL59RB from Optronics. However, adding this light does not reduce the other requirements. There are also conspicuity...

  • Relative Light Output Level for Optronics Thinline LED Lights STL59RCB and STL59RB
    Both the Optronics lights you referenced, parts # STL59RCB and # STL59RB, are thin-line 9-diode LED light strips that directly surface mount without need for a mounting bracket or bezel. Each light has two mounting holes built in to the housing; these are spaced apart at the same 11-3/4-inch center-to-center distance on the sealed, waterproof polycarbonate housings. I checked with my technical contact at Optronics about the relative lumen brightness of these two similar products. I was...

  • Recommended LED 3rd Brake Light and Taillight Converter for Camper Trailer
    To wire in a multi-diode 3rd brake light such as the 9-diode Optronics Thinline # STL59RB you will be better off using converter # 118158. Pacer Performance 3rd Brake Light Logic Module # PP20-702 is for a single-LED light. Since you want only the brake light function I suggest using the single-function Optronics Streamline LED Trailer Third Brake Light # STL80RB instead of part # STL59RB. This 2-wire light grounds with the white wire and the red wire will connect to the red pigtail on...

  • Can Optronics Trailer Taillight STL59RB be Used as Third Brake Light

  • What do You Recommend for Adding a Third Brake Light to my In Bed Truck Camper
    I may have a solution but there is not a good option for that Series 99 light because they are all used as marker lights and not signal lights. If you were to use the Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light part # STL59RB and just wire the ground and brake signal it will act exactly like your current third brake light. It is narrow enough that it will fit above your marker or clearance light giving you your desired result. You will use the white wire for ground and the red wire for your brake...

  • Can Tail Lights be Installed on Kuat Sherpa 2.0
    Thank you for the purchase of the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22B. Since your right turn signal is being obscured you could very possibly use the Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL59RB with a 4-Way pigtail like part # HM38134 but I have a different recommendation for you that I believe is a bit simpler to install and will look better since that strip can only carry one turn signal function. I recommend using the Light Kit # 20174 with 2 of the Bracket # BK70BB. The 4-Way connector is already...

  • How to Install New Trailer Tail Light with 3 Wires
    Most likely, the red wire on your new tail light is for the turn signal, the black wire is for the tail light and the white wire is for ground. I do recommend testing the wires on your trailer for function, but typically the yellow wire will be for the left turn signal and the brown wire will be for the tail lights. If this is correct, the red wire from the light will connect to the yellow wire on the trailer and the black wire will connect to the trailer's brown wire. The white ground...

  • Do All Three Wires Have to Be Used with the Optronics Clearance Lights STL69RRXB and STL69RRXB
    The two wires of the # STL69RRXB and # STL69RRXB which carry power for the light control two different illuminations. If you only needed one of them you could easily just not use the one not needed. The red wire controls the brighter illumination and the black wire the dimmer one. Most likely you'd want to use the red wire and then ground the white.

  • Entire Light Bar on Trailer Lights up When Either Turn Signal is Used
    If your 17" light bar has 3 wires like the Optronics Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL59RB, then it is only meant to be used on one side. It sounds like you wired everything correctly. I believe that you are spot on with why it is not working correctly. For the bar to have 2 different turn signal sections it would need to have 4 wires. Since it only has 3 this means that the entire light bar will light up whenever it gets any kind of signal. If you wanted separate turn signals then...
