Been looking for a Stern(transom)Light for my jon boat. Walmart has one for $26.As with anything,you want to shop around to get the best price. So I took a trip out of town yesterday and while I was there I went to a Sportsmans warehouse. They have the light,(its crazy long) for $18. Or I could get the light and the socket(which I already have installed) for $26.

I bit the bullet and bought the one for $18.

Today I was looking at the clearance section at WalMart,and staring me right in the face is a stern(transom) light (a nice short unit) for $4.50.

I swear I have looked in the clearance section at least once a week for a month,and never saw these lights.

Guess thats the way it goes sometimes huh...

You may find that the long one will prevent a lot of glare at night. The higher and further behind the driver is normally better. May have been a blessing............Al

Plus its easier for other boaters to see.  It gets the light up over the motor at certain angles.
