Deep Glow Offers Simple Solution for Thru-Hull Lighting


Tampa, Florida, May 19, 2009 – Your boat is one of your most significant investments, a dream that supports an on-the-water lifestyle of fishing, entertaining friends, weekend getaways, and cruising beautiful shorelines.  So why drill unnecessary holes in your boat’s hull for an LED, halide or Xenon lighting system?
 
Tampa, Florida-based Deep Glow Technologies, Inc. offers a simple and much less expensive LED lighting option for your boat, one that does not require professional installation or drilling holes in your hull.
 
“Our lighting system was initially designed for docks and piers, but we continue to receive feedback from our customers who like our product’s portability, allowing them to anchor their boat and simply drop their Deep Glow lights into the water surrounding the boat,” says Brad Ball of Deep Glow Technologies, Inc.

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.

 
According to Ball, individual thru-hull lights generally range in price from $1,000-$1,500 per light, not including installation, while Deep Glow lights are less than half of this cost.  “Thru hull lights are like a flash light, while Deep Glow lights are more like a street light,” says Ball.  Deep Glow lights can be dropped to a depth of 3’-20’, and can illuminate an area of more than 30’ across, depending on water clarity and depth.
 
“Our Deep Glow lights provided us with an amazing display of marine life,” says Mike Rojers of Tampa, Florida, during a recent visit to the Dry Tortugas.  “We hung two Deep Glow lights from the back of my 50’ Hatteras anchored in 14’ of water, and within minutes were greeted by several 500 + pound jewfish.  It was the highlight of our trip.”

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.

Deep Glow lights are fast replacing dock-mounted lighting systems that often attract insects and cause glare, and create an instant ecosystem for marine life. Deep Glow lights are available in Green, Blue, Magenta and Clear. 

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.
