HydroGlow FL50 50W Green Dock Flood Light

The HydroGlow FL-50 is an above-water dock flood light in green, drawing 0.5A at 50W on 120V, roughly 8 by 8 inches with a 10 foot cord.

The FL-50 runs a tighter beam than the DM260 strip lights, which is what makes it the choice for a dock set high above the water or where the water runs stained. A focused beam penetrates deeper than a wide flood at the same wattage, because the light is not spreading across a surface it never reaches through.

Green suits exactly those stained and unclear conditions, penetrating further than blue and pulling baitfish in from a distance. Where the water is clear and the dock sits low, a wider light is the better tool and the FL-50's focus is wasted.

Half an amp at 50W is a very low draw, so several of these run off a single circuit without special provision. That matters when lighting a long dock, where the limiting factor is usually the circuit rather than the fixtures. Explore more deck, spreader and flood lights.

• Tighter beam than the DM260 strip lights
• For a high dock or stained water
• Focus penetrates deeper than a wide flood
• 0.5A at 50W, so several run off one circuit
