    This is the one I have. If it gets lost or broken it's only $25.

    It depends on if I have it on high or low. I'd say at least an hour. The battery is replaceable and a standard electronics size so it can be replaced when it doesn't hold a charge anymore. I'm sure the one that comes with the light is a cheap one anyway.

    Hey @HAVOC - the electronics guru. What would you reccemend for a 6 pin weatherproof connector? Was looking at the deutsch stuff but wanted an expert opinion.

    Looking at putting a multi function light on my bed bar under the tent that would function as a running light/brake light/reverse/bed light/ and chase light.

    Pretty much this setup: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/rigid-chase-light.560038/#post-18356191

    Yea, I have nothing right now. Just doing some planning on what would be a high quality solution. Hoping to be able to have a quick and clean disconnect for when the tent comes off.

    I can’t find any info online about what size the light has, but I have a couple spools of 18 gauge in my toolbox that I was initially planning on using.

    Danbury Auto Spring & Welding seems to get into all sorts of specialty stuff. Good reputation. I know they work on RV's & stuff like food trucks. Might be an option.

    This makes me laugh. I decided I was unwilling to pay $30k for a new truck. Think it was a GMC crew cab long bed. Must have been 1989ish.
    Now cars cost $105,000. I just coudn't. Wouldn't. I'd buy some Iowa 4-plex & rent 'em all out for that money.
