Linear lighting is lights that are in strips, that bend, that light up the night in beautiful colours and that essentially can be used anywhere at any time. Linear lighting, is, as the name suggests linear. They come in different lengths and widths and can be used almost anywhere. They make a great alternative to traditional tube lighting in some applications and they are super easy to install wherever you need more light.
Linear lighting is a great option for boat owners as they save space while giving you much-needed light. With vessels space is usually at a premium, so saving it where you can is a much-loved option for owners. Some models come with dimmers so you can move the brightness around as needed, but they are all low profile and fit perfectly into places like under cabinets and in bulkheads. They can even be fitted to sit horizontally or vertically depending on your needs and are great at illuminating compartments with a flood of light.
Some linear light options can be used outside while others are strictly for indoor use. The outdoor variety is water and weather proof which makes them a good fit for docks, piers and the exterior of your boat as well. There are even types that can be used in high impact situations or in places where there are high temperatures or chemicals in use.
Lights on a boat are dual purpose. Yes, you have to see what you are doing, but you also have to be seen by other boaters at all times. Forget eye strain and having dark corners in your vessel's interior. Now you can put light where you need it easily and safely. Like with most things, there are a wide array of lighting options that you can choose for both interior and exterior use but if lights work on a train chugging through a Canadian winter, it is a good bet they can work for you on your boat as well.
