Installation Guide

• ORIENTATION IS VERY IMPORTANT! Lights should be mounted with the logo in an upright position
• Lights must be operated on an appropriately fused or circuit breaker protected circuit.
• Lights are not recommended for mounting on running surfaces (e.g., the bottom surface of a hull)
• For best performance, lights should be mounted below the waterline
• Bottom paint is not required, however lights can be painted with any bronze-safe paint if desired.
Operation:
An abrupt OFF/ON toggle of your standard (SPST) switch allows SeaBlazeX2 to transition through various light output modes.
Mounting Location:
Mounting surfaces should be at, clean, dry, and free of any existing hardware or holes. Before mounting ensure that the light will not interfere with the
operation of engines, trim tabs, rudders, etc. Ideal mounting locations include transoms, the side and back surfaces of engine brackets, and the
undersides of dive platforms. For maximum performance SeaBlazeX2 lights should be mounted 6” to 16” below the waterline. Installation at depths
greater than 36” is not recommended.
Mounting your SeaBlazeX2 light:
Tape the mounting template in the desired mounting location. Drill holes for the mounting screws and wire boss as indicated on the mounting template.
NOTE! The mounting screws provided with your SeaBlazeX2 light, while very corrosion resistant, are softer than typical steel screws. Extreme care must
be taken when driving screws to prevent screw heads from shearing o. The diameter of the pilot hole required for the mounting screws will depend
largely on the composition and thickness of the mounting surface.
Size pilot holes so that only moderate torque is needed to drive the screw into the mounting surface. Typically this hole size will be slightly smaller than
the outside diameter of the widest threads. Test the size of the mounting hole prior to installation. Carefully turn screws to avoid breaking them. If screw
is too tight, back out and re-size screw hole. When drilling berglass, slightly countersinking the hole using a 3-uke countersink bit will reduce gelcoat
chipping. Thoroughly coat the back surface of the SeaBlazeX2 light with a marine-grade sealant designed for below-waterline applications. Dab
additional sealant on the holes in the mounting surface, forcing some sealant into the holes. Extreme care should be taken to properly seal the
through-hull (wire) hole to prevent water intrusion. Press the SeaBlazeX2 rmly into place to bed it in the sealant. Tighten the mounting screws evenly.
Sealant should be forced from all sides as the light is tightened down.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Voltage: 10 - 30vDC
12vDC Amps: 5A
24vDC Amps: 2.5A
Color Temperature: 6500 (White)
Thread the wire strain relief from inside the boat along the power wire.
Press it rmly into the wirehole to properly seal and prevent water
intrusion. Allow the sealant to cure thoroughly per the manufacturer’s
instructions prior to returning the vessel to the water.
Note: Any time a hole is bored into a vessel’s hull (for example mounting
screws for transducers, dive platforms, through-hull ttings, etc.), the
possibility of water intrusion into the hull or completely into the vessel
exists. Water intrusion may result in signicant structural damage to a
vessel or the vessel sinking. Considerable care should be taken to
ensure that the through-hull hole is thoroughly sealed on both sides of
the hull. Additionally, the back (inside) surface where the wire exits the
through-hull hole should be carefully sealed using the wire strain relief.
Under Voltage Behavior
If the voltage at the device is less than 10V when the device is on, the
device will gradually dim to minimum brightness. Factors which may
result in under voltage conditions include insucient wire gauge, bad
battery cell, bad connection at switch, connectors, fuse and/or circuit
breaker. Lumitec, Inc. assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any
damage, loss, or injury that may result from the incorrect installation of
this product, including but not limited to the vessel sinking, structural
damage due to water intrusion, electrical malfunction, etc.

SeaBlazeX2 SPECTRUM Light Output Modes
Light will cycle through all available colors within the rst 20 seconds, (including
white). A brief OFF/ON toggle will allow the user to select any discrete color during
the cycle. After 20 seconds without interruption, the light will continue a full color
cycle over a period of 3 minutes - Discrete colors can still be chosen during the 3
minute cycle. If a discrete color is not selected, the light will repeat the 3 minute
cycle continuously. Light resets after power is o for more than 3 seconds.
SeaBlazeX2 Dual Color Light Output Modes
1 – Cross-Color Fade – gently undulating color mix, 2 – On
Blue, 3 – On White
Since 2008 the SeaBlaze line of underwater lights has established the
industry benchmark for performance, quality, and value. Introducing
the new standard: SeaBlazeX2. Completely surface mount, the
SeaBlazeX2 housing is constructed of carefully formulated bronze alloy
with a designed underwater service life of more than 50 years. The
circuitry is completely self-contained and tested to rigorous military
standards for EMI, transient voltages, temperature extremes, and
mechanical shock and vibration. Exclusive thermal foldback
technology ensures the light can operate above water indenitely
without damage. And with a lower prole and smaller footprint than
most other lights, mounting options are no longer limited to wide at
transom areas.
