slightly warm to the touch... they get warm fairly rapid then stay at that temp constant... very mild... not nearly warm enough to harm anything... not nearly as warm as the whole boat gets under a black cover sitting outside all day

they refer to the 500 as a courtesy light with flood lenses in same colors. has this changed? is the 400 the one you would recommend? And what is the deal with the "bi-color" Can you make it blue only? |

the unit i installed in place for the interior courtesy lights is actually an overhead unit... the M-400... its an exterior overhead unit... it is suited great for this application if you want a lot more light... the M400 i can promise you the actual light is blue its not shot through a blue lens... i haven't seen the M500 to know for sure but the folks at Abyss Lighting are great to help w/ any problems
as for the bi-color thing there is a common ground on the unit and there's color coded (how sweet of them) power wires... i put a cap on the red and hooked up the blue... it was that easy... (to be honest i don't even think i needed the cap but i put it on anyways to be safe)... my only recommendation is that you wire the light in and make sure its what you want before doing anything more costly and permanent |

more from the blue platform monster... i can't say enough about how bad a$$ these look w/ the boat on plane at night... and they look really good from behind surfing too
sorry for the very poor picture quality... these do it NO justice i'm hoping for a digital SLR from Santa this yr ... if nothing else i'm sure you guys would like to see a decent picture quality instead of my pictures that make you think you're on acid
