With few people at work, its hard to get much done. Today I woulda got
more done on the boat but spent it at work. I'll go to the boat to
change the oil and engine zinc on my Yanmar 2GM tomorrow.
Tried to find some 600 ohm resistors at Radio Shack for my homemade
ultra-bright LED anchor light but no luck, will havta order em.


How much less power draw will that new LED anchor light have over a
standard 12v light?


I'd like to know also. Truckers are putting them all over their rigs and
they are *bright*. One my last trip to Florida, while driving at night, I
gave a trucker who was passing me the lights off/on routine to let him know
it was safe to pull back over. He flashed all his lights in a "thanks" and
damn near blinded me.
