| Hi all. I have to go up mast soon to check out ( and maybe replace) wind sensor. While there I want to change mast light bulb to a LED bulb. Does anyone know the type of bulb and wattage required? Thanks. |

If you need a H320 electrical diagram or other Hanse related information, try https://www.wesailhanse.se/320_documents/hanse_320-350-7215-010-01-electrical%20scheme.pdf" rel="nofollow - https://www.wesailhanse.se/320_documents/hanse_320-350-7215-010-01-electrical%20scheme.pdf All the (Hella?)nav lights have the same type of bulb. So for starters you can check a light closer to the deck for verification of the type of bulb. What you need is: "lantern bulb bay15d ø20x35mm 10-35vdc 1,8/20w white" Changing the anchor light will stand up to a cost/benefit calculation. The motor lantern though will only be used when the engine is running, so here a LED or non-LED bulb will not be so important.

Replacing the bulb will probably be fine, but we chose to replace the whole assembly with a sealed LED system. It was not very expensive and has worked great. Hopefully we will never have to replace it again, but it is a boat, so "never say never." Here is the link to the Hella Marine LED lamps we used. https://www.apexlighting.com/boat-lights/led-navigation-lights/naviled-360-led-all-round-lamps-2nm/?sku=980910121&gclid=Cj0KCQiA8t2eBhDeARIsAAVEga1T4fkpocMObhX-qOa2Sb82wSH_Kg0IrKLSH0RkB9EmgjeUTIkxCW4aAhEXEALw_wcB" rel="nofollow - https://www.apexlighting.com/boat-lights/led-navigation-lights/naviled-360-led-all-round-lamps-2nm/?sku=980910121&gclid=Cj0KCQiA8t2eBhDeARIsAAVEga1T4fkpocMObhX-qOa2Sb82wSH_Kg0IrKLSH0RkB9EmgjeUTIkxCW4aAhEXEALw_wcB ) ------------- Andy Moonraker River Dunes, NC |

Got the Aqua Signal type 34; 1:1 exchangeable with the AquaSignal base on a 2007 H350. This one is about E.220 in NL. Agree with Cap. Cook w.r.t. the steaming light; motor is running so it makes no sense (Penny wise) to change this one for LED.  ------------- "Coriolis" H350 #045 (ex Waarschip 570 #? 1987/1992, ex Waarschip 28LD #7 1994/2007) |

| Thanks all. Haven’t had a chance to go up mast yet but might just go for the led bulb option. |

Andy, w.r.t. navigation light; yars ago I installed a 3 color multi LED bulb in teh original housing. Two remarks: 1. The multi LED broke out of the lamp base including its fitting during a 6B wind against tide sail on the Ems estuary as it is rather heavy. 2. The combination of a (multi) LED with the standard lens results in a rather wide grey(ish) area between red and green, which I found rather disturbing and in fact is an offence.

It would help if you put your boat model in your signature. I assume you still have a 350. On my much older 341, I replaced the anchor light with BAY15d replacement 18smd LED bulb from Boatlamps in the UK https://boatlamps.co.uk/products/bay15d-18-smd-5050-led-bulbs-for-navigation-lights" rel="nofollow - https://boatlamps.co.uk/products/bay15d-18-smd-5050-led-bulbs-for-navigation-lights Also buy the Contralube for use when fitting the bulb. They also do an automatic sensor bulb bas well. ------------- Martin&Rene Hanse 341 Dipper Wheel steering, 3 cabin layout, normally based in Scotland |
