Boogey Lights Reviews

Hi Rich.

Thanks for your business and your review.   

We're sorry you found the installation documentation challenging.  We wish it was simpler too but unfortunately, it's not possible to provide a "simple data sheet" for each product installation. These products are used in a wide range of applications, on all kinds of vehicles and in a variety of operating conditions. The same LED technology used for a 100 LED motorcycle light kit is the same used for a 3000 LED light kit on a RV or Semi-Truck.  The same 22 or (20 gauge wire depending on length) too is used on all of them.  Just about any electrical wire stripper can be used to cleanly strip the insulation back. For those finding this difficult, we suggest hiring someone who has experience to assist them. 

As for the power consumption calculations, every LED product we offer lists the number of LEDs on the product page.  If that number isn't available, we also list the lengths of the LED strips which you can then use to determine the number of LEDs in that length.  To determine amperage draw, we have one spec sheet which lists the amount of amperage consumed per LED color at a given input voltage (which can vary per installation).  That amperage draw per LED at the stated input voltage times the number of LEDs gives you the amperage number needed. That's it.  Knowing the amperage draw of your unique lighting system is a critical part of the install process.  It's not something we can do for you.  For those that find this task challenging, we suggest hiring someone who has experience to assist them. This is particularly true if the installation is on an RV where people sleep. Not sizing the circuit properly can risk fire.   

We remind all customers that no two installation scenarios are the same. Not everyone shares the same installation quality goals. Some folks are OK with twisting wires together, others want to solder them. Some folks are OK with running wires where they may be seen or unprotected to save money/time, others want a tidy, clean install without any wires showing. The point is it's not possible to provide all the materials necessary for all installation scenarios, operating environments and quality goals. Our light kits provide the essential components needed for a high-quality, functioning lighting system. Installation of our light kit to your specific vehicle may however require additional items to make it look and fit the way you want. This is particularly the case with electrical wiring and mounting of LED strips.  For this reason, our product pages provide a list of additional items customers may want to consider purchasing before installing their light kit.  These items are widely available at just about any hardware store or online.  They do not need to be purchased from us.

If you have any questions, please contact us at 800.847.1359 M-F, 905 eastern.  We're here to assist customers and answer questions; preferrably before doing the installation so there aren't any surprises. 

Thank you again for you business.

Thanks for your business and your review.   You can find specifications, including amperage ratings, capacity ratings and limitations for every controller and light kit we offer by simply clicking the SPECS tab that appears on every product page. It's quite detailed.  Even the back of the controller has the max capacity and amperage ratings on the back of it.  As for the installation instructions, we either forgot to include them with your kit or you purchased individual components which means we don't know what you're doing with the lights. If it's one thing we're rarely criticized for is not having enough documentation on our products.   If anything, folks are over whelmed by the level of documentation we offer. Regardless, it sounds like you were able to get your questions answered and the lights installed without a problem.  If in the future you're looking for details about any of our products, check out our INSTALLATION RESOURCE tab.  Every wiring diagram, every light kit, every how-to document for all products can be found on that page organized by product type.  Thank you again for your business.
