Cool & Bright We light up the engine bay and cool it down for next to nothing! Fed up of using torches to light the engine bay when working on or checking the engine we decided to fit a work-lamp. In the summer the engine bay can get very warm and the existing heat extract needs a boost now and then.
Great in the winter as the engine heats the whole boat but in the summer the temperature can get very warm and will stay warm for hours. Working on the engine or even just doing a few checks was a pain as you had to hunt down a torch to see the dipsticks or check for leaks. We as always, wanted a cheap solution for both these issues. The fan only comes on when it is needed saving power and the light is a series of super bright LED's mounted in a work lamp giving a fantastic light with a draw of just 0.7 of an amp. He's how we did it.

Welcome to our channel.
We are now in season 6
In 2018 we left the UK to sail around the world slowly. After Brexit, a "Pandemic" and major heart surgery we are still sailing, documenting our travels and showing you what we have learned so far.
We are hoping to complete our journey, and travel right around the world even if we have had a few setbacks along the way. We will continue at our own pace and that may be fast or slow. We want to be sure not to miss anything and have stories to tell our grandchildren when we are old and grey.
Sail Safe Guys, Ant & Cid.
