Holiday Gifts for the Home

Tampa, Florida, November 16, 2009 – Men are some of the most difficult individuals to shop for during the holidays, with loved ones often resorting to a shirt, tie, cologne, or gift certificate to a local sporting goods store. Tampa, Florida-based Deep Glow Technologies offers the latest must have gadget for the man in your life – a high-tech underwater dock lighting system that can be easily installed and quickly enjoyed by the entire family.

“Deep Glow underwater dock lights start at $399 and can be enjoyed every day of the year unlike many gifts,” says Brad Ball of Deep Glow Technologies, Inc. “Once the light is dropped into the water and turned on, it creates a virtual aquarium, great for fishing with kids or entertaining dockside with friends and family members,” adds Ball.

Available in green, blue, red and clear colors, the Deep Glow system is perfect for any type of water, from saltwater canals, bays and bayous, to freshwater ponds, lakes and rivers. Underwater dock lighting systems are fast replacing traditional dock-mounted lights that often attract insects and create glare.

Holiday Gifts for the Home

“My husband was so thrilled to find a Deep Glow light under the Christmas tree last year, that I purchased another one for him on Father’s Day,” says Donna Dicosola of St. Petersburg, Florida. “It’s a gift that we use each night, and my husband and son frequently fish for snook off of our dock in the evenings. It’s great to have a product that the whole family can enjoy,” says Dicosola.

Deep Glow lights may be thrown, dropped or placed in the water at a depth of 3-20 feet and installation options are available for deeper waters. Deep Glow lights illuminate the water, attracting vast amounts of marine life, providing unique navigation for nighttime boating and increasing security by casting a soft glow on above water structures.

“At this time of year, we find that people are sprucing up their homes to prepare for evening entertaining, and they really like the idea of extending the holiday atmosphere all the way out to the dock and lighting the water in a beautiful green glow,” says Ball.

Deep Glow invested heavily in product design, development and testing – ensuring ultimate satisfaction and durability in tough underwater conditions. Deep Glow lights are environmentally friendly and depending on water clarity, can illuminate a diameter of up to 30 feet.

Installation requires nothing more than mounting a ballast enclosure to a dock or pier adjacent to an 110V GFCI outlet and dropping the light into the water. The light automatically falls to the bottom with the light facing upward. Each light features an automatic timer for carefree operation.

A patent-pending design, featuring a metal halide bulb encased in a tri-level custom injection molded and waterproof housing, was years in development. Each light produces heat to combat marine growth, and goes through a self-cleaning process. The lights can be easily pulled out of the water for additional cleaning, and the replaceable bulb is guaranteed for one year.

Deep Glow Technologies, Inc. manufactures Deep Glow underwater dock lights available in green, blue, red and clear. Deep Glow lights are designed to withstand harsh saltwater conditions and are easy to install by simply dropping the light into the water and plugging the ballast into a 110V GFCI outlet. The lights can be ordered on the company’s website at www.deepglow.com or for more information call 888-871-3334.

Crappie Fishing Catching On

Tampa, Florida, August 11, 2009 – Crappie anglers have long been known for their nighttime prowess, and crappie fishing is becoming more popular with an increase in the use of underwater dock lights.

“We continue to see tremendous sales of our underwater dock lights from customers who fish for crappie, as these fish can be found in just about every freshwater lake in the lower 48 states,” says Brad Ball, President of Deep Glow Technologies, Inc., manufacturer of Deep Glow underwater dock lighting systems.

In fact, Deep Glow products were originally developed for saltwater and coastal homeowners, yet the company’s now sells approximately half of its lights to freshwater customers.

Crappie fishing usually equals family fun, and these fish are often considered one of the best tasting freshwater fish, targeted by anglers because of the diversity in how you can catch crappie. They are also more plentiful than other freshwater species, with anglers capable of hauling in dozens of fish in a short time period

Deep Glow Underwater Dock Lights

“Waterfront homeowners love crappie fishing from their docks using our underwater dock lights because these lights are easy to install by simply plugging the ballast into a 110 GFCI outlet, and dropping the light into the water,” says Ball. “Our Deep Glow lights can be dropped under the dock’s pilings, or can easily be situated next to underwater structure, such as brush, rocks or timber – places where crappie with school,” says Ball.

With a Deep Glow light, you’ll build an instant marine ecosystem, as Deep Glow’s lights attract baitfish, which then attracts other larger species like crappie.

Crappie spread out to find brushy or weedy structure, seeking baitfish to feed off of, and are often attracted to light. The fish will school around an underwater light, searching the glowing waters for wounded prey or the smell of food.

As Deep Glow lights may be dropped or placed in the water at a depth of 3-20 feet, they are great for fishing suspended fish. Deep Glow lights are 60% brighter than its competitors, and depending on water clarity, can illuminate a diameter of up to 30 feet.

Deep Glow lights were designed to withstand harsh underwater environments, including rough water, salt water, prop wash, wave action, and impact from cast nets. The low profile design allows the light to settle on the seabed to avoid damage from motor skegs and fishing lines.

A patent-pending design, featuring a metal halide bulb encased in a tri-level custom injection molded and waterproof housing, was years in development. Each light produces heat to combat marine growth, and go through a self-cleaning process. The lights can be easily pulled out of the water for additional cleaning, and the replaceable bulb is guaranteed for one year.

Deep Glow Offers Simple Solution for Thru-Hull Lighting

Installation of a thru-hull lighting system in a boat can be a costly and time-consuming process.  It requires drilling one or more holes in the boat’s hull and applying sealant to attach each light to the hull.  Next, you must gain access to interior compartments for wiring purposes, and finally, connect each light’s wiring to a mounted junction box.  “Not to mention this installation process must take place when the boat is dry-docked,” says Ball.

Installing Deep Glow lights requires nothing more than plugging your light into an 110V GFCI outlet, tying to a cleat and dropping the light into the water.  Each Deep Glow light weighs approximately 12 pounds, and may be easily stowed in a boat storage compartment.

Deep Glow invested heavily in product design, development and testing, ensuring ultimate satisfaction.  Deep Glow lights were designed to withstand harsh underwater environments, including rough water, salt water, prop wash, wave action, and impact from cast nets.  The low profile design allows the light to settle on the seabed to avoid damage from motor skegs and fishing lines.
