12V 25″ MAXX LED Green Underwater Submersible Night Fishing Light 120 WATT -10,000 LUMENS: Crappie shad Squid Shrimp

I purchased the light back in July 2023. The first one arrived damaged but they had excellent customer service and replaced it right away. I have been doing a complete rebuild of an old 16’ extra wide jon boat. Started fishing in it August. Finally went night fishing last month. My outboard is pull start and doesn’t need a battery. I rewired everything (mostly lights all led) using all marine approved wire , connectors , switch panel and fuse box. I set it up right by the book. My front and back running lights only draw 1amp together and the led strip 3amps. So I had 4amps drawing from the 12v 35ah sla battery I installed new. I’d test it now and then and it held 14.2 volts while resting. Only need it at night. This was the first night trip. I set up in a spot and had like I said 4amps turn on. I dropped the green light in the water plugged into the cigarette lighter port in the switch panel and in no time we were surrounded by shad. Then we saw them floating up to the top after being tore up by fish. Awesome! We sit there for a little over 2 hours and I looked at the voltage meter built in the switch panel and I only had 10.5 volts showing which is lower than a 12v sla battery should be discharged.I unplugged the green light and the voltage went up to 11.9 as soon as I did. Got home and the battery charged back up like it should. It now rest at 12.8 volts which is good. The 14.2 was it not ever being used.I haven’t went back out at night again yet. But It was bothering me because something didn’t add up. I know exactly what everything on the boat draws. That battery only runs the lights and the bilge pump if needed which if I would have needed it I would have had to scramble and some how move the trolling battery to the back and hook it up. Even my new GARMIN sonar has its own 18ah sla battery. So I got back on Amazon and the description said 5amps for the green light which is what I had calculated it for. Then I saw it’s 120 watts.120 watts divided by 12 volts is 10amps which is twice the current I had calculated in. And 10 amps along with the time I used the light would put it right in the zone of where the battery was discharged.No big deal I still had enough power for my bow mounted led flood light to idle back to the boat ramp and running lights never flickered. Next trip I’ll put the green light on my big trolling battery. I just wish the description would have been correct and I wouldn’t have taken a little life off my new battery from over discharging it. Some places in the different descriptions it even says 2.5 amps then you see 5 amps. I didn’t calculate it by the number of bulbs and how much each of them draw because with 300 bulbs there’s not going to be a correct answer due some drawing more than others. But 120 watts at 12 volts DC is a solid 10 amps per hour. I’m going to search through the reviews and see if anyone else had more power usage than expected.All said and done the light is super bright and I put it on the bottom of 15’ of water and it really brought in the fish in no time. I mostly set the boat up to drift fish for big catfish and only use fresh bait I catch. So I’ll be using the light a lot at a smaller lake closer to home after dark to attract shad and bluegill into a cove from a dock and cast net my bait for the big lake the next morning. I’ll definitely see how it holds up this winter.
