What Affects the Price of LED Fishing Lights?

The cost of LED fishing lights varies based on several technical and configuration factors. Understanding these can help vessel owners and project buyers choose the most efficient and cost-effective option.

Power Rating

Higher-wattage lights (1000W–1200W) cost more due to larger COB chips and reinforced heat sinks. Lower-wattage models (600W–800W) are lighter and more economical, ideal for nearshore use.

Fixed Light Color

Each unit comes in a fixed single color—such as green, white, cyan, red, or purple—chosen based on fish species. These lights don’t support DMX or color switching. To cover multiple wavelengths, different colored units are installed in parallel.

Housing & Protection

Fixtures made from marine-grade aluminum or stainless steel are more durable but pricier. All models feature IP68 waterproofing and 10kV surge protection for offshore environments.

Voltage & Driver Design

Most models support wide voltage (AC 100–320V). Units with high-efficiency, EMC-compliant drivers offer better thermal protection and electrical reliability.

Where to Use COB LED Fish Attract Lights

Surface-mounted LED fish attracting lights are widely used across various commercial and semi-commercial fishing operations. Whether installed on offshore trawlers or shore-based structures, they create powerful illumination zones that help attract phototactic species at night and boost overall catch rates.

Boat Fishing

Enhance your night fishing capabilities by installing surface-mounted COB LED fishing lights on your vessel. These lights improve visibility and attract target species like squid, sardines, and mackerel — ideal for both coastal and offshore conditions.

Dock & Pier Fishing

Mount LED fish luring lights on docks, piers, or floating platforms to create a concentrated glow that draws in baitfish and enhances visibility for night operations. Also improves safety in working environments.

Bridge & Structure Fishing

Install fish attract lights on bridges, harbor walls, or marina structures to illuminate fixed fishing locations. Commonly used for municipal lighting, marina zones, and recreational fishing hubs.

Baitfish Concentration

Position COB LED lights above live wells or bait tanks to gather and stimulate baitfish activity. Helps improve bait survival and simplifies nighttime line baiting or netting.

Offshore Aquaculture

Use high-power LED fish lights around offshore cage farms or net pens to encourage fish aggregation, promote feeding behavior, and increase operational efficiency during dark hours. Use on cage systems or fish pens to stimulate fish movement, promote feeding, and improve nighttime fish aggregation in open-water farming operations.

Beyond specs: How we ensure quality
Performance matters—but so does reliability. Here’s how we manufacture and test our LED fish lights to ensure they stand up to offshore conditions.

How to Install LED Fish Lights on Your Vessel

To ensure stable performance and reliable fish attraction, follow these installation guidelines:

Mount on side rails, top decks, or crossbeams depending on vessel structure

Use M10 anti-loosening bolts to secure the fixture

Adjust beam angle with hex socket wrenches (8mm to loosen, 6mm to lock)

Maintain a 1.5–2.5m height above waterline for optimal beam projection

Use symmetrical positioning (e.g., both sides of hull) for uniform light spread

For mixed-species fishing, combine green and white lights in parallel

Global Trends in Commercial LED Fishing Lights (2023–2025)

The global LED fishing light market is projected to grow at 10–12% annually between 2023 and 2028, with surface-mounted systems becoming increasingly popular due to their simplicity, high performance, and low maintenance needs.

The commercial fishing industry is undergoing a rapid transformation, driven by sustainability goals, rising fuel costs, and advancements in lighting technology. Surface-mounted LED fish lights are playing a central role in this shift.

LED Replacing Halogen and Metal Halide Lamps

Traditional fishing lights such as halogen and HID (metal halide) lamps are rapidly being phased out due to their high power consumption, short lifespan, and heat generation. In contrast, LED fish lights offer:

Up to 60% energy savings

Lifespan of 30,000–50,000 hours

Instant-on functionality (no warm-up delay)

More precise color spectrum control for targeted fish attraction

Growth in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America

Demand for high-power surface-mounted LED fish lights is growing rapidly in key fishing regions:

Indonesia & the Philippines: Fast adoption due to large squid and sardine fisheries

Middle East (Oman, Iran): Coastal fleet modernization and government-supported fishing programs

Peru, Ecuador, Chile: Tuna, anchovy, and mackerel fleets seeking efficiency upgrades

Policy & Environmental Pressure

Governments are pushing for more sustainable fishing practices, banning mercury-based lights and offering subsidies for low-energy LED upgrades.

China, Vietnam, Indonesia: Regulations banning or restricting halogen and HID usage

EU & GCC countries: Increasing focus on RoHS compliance and carbon reduction

Fishing operators are now incentivized to switch to LED for both compliance and cost-saving reasons

Color-Specific Lighting Strategy

While advanced control systems like DMX or RGB are common in architectural lighting, LED fish lights are designed to be simple, robust, and single-color only. To ensure simplicity and long-term reliability at sea, all lights use a single fixed color selected during manufacturing. This eliminates the need for complex RGB or DMX systems, which are vulnerable to corrosion and wiring issues in offshore environments.

Fishing operators typically choose from a range of color options—such as white, green, red, yellow, or cyan—depending on the local water conditions, target fish behavior, and historical catch data.

For fleets needing multiple wavelengths, the common approach is to install separate single-color lights side-by-side rather than relying on switchable color systems.

Why Choose LED Over Traditional Halogen or HID Lights?

For decades, halogen and metal halide (HID) lamps have been widely used in commercial fishing. However, these traditional lighting technologies come with serious limitations—high power consumption, short lifespan, excessive heat, and poor durability in marine environments.

Surface-mounted LED fish lights address these issues with modern performance, higher efficiency, and longer service life. The following table highlights the key differences.

Feature	Halogen / HID	LED Fish Light
Energy Consumption	High	Up to 50–60% lower
Lifespan	2,000–5,000 hours	20,000–30,000 hours
Start-up Time	2–5 minutes (warm-up)	Instant-on
Maintenance	Frequent bulb replacement	Minimal upkeep
Heat Output	High, may affect nearby equipment	Low, safer operation
Color Options	Limited (warm/cool white)	Green, white, red, purple, yellow, etc.
Environmental Compliance	May contain mercury	RoHS-compliant, mercury-free
Saltwater Durability	Low resistance to corrosion	Marine-grade, salt-resistant materials

Summary

Halogen and HID lights are increasingly being replaced in the fishing industry due to their inefficiency and maintenance demands. In contrast, LED technology offers:

Up to 60% energy savings

Longer lifespan with minimal maintenance

Instant-on functionality with no warm-up delay

Multi-color options for species-specific attraction

Corrosion-resistant construction for offshore use

Environmentally compliant, mercury-free operation

For commercial fleets, especially those operating in remote or offshore environments, surface-mounted LED lights provide a proven return on investment—delivering better performance, lower operational costs, and greater reliability at sea.
