Default Blue water Led's

Anybody ever use these or know anything about them? Looking into lighting my Bass Tracker up for some night time spring and summer fishing. I am more concerned about lighting the inside up. But want to add something to the outside also

Thank you. I'm not married to any brand. I would really like to hear from someone that had real experience with some

I found some 3m LEDs on eBay for $18 for a 15' roll. They are waterproof and have 3m adhesive backing on hem. I made a fish attractor out of some of them and the rest are gong in my boat. They're the same ones folks put on their cars for the street glo.

Once you cut the length you need how do you re use the rest?

Sorry it was so short I was on my phone. You have to shave the waterproofing off and solder new leads to the terminals. You can cut them ever 3 LEDs. I did the fish light, and am still trying to teach myself how to solder so I can use the rest of the strip I have! It's a lot harder than it sounds.
