Rope lights

[AbdRahim]

1) Does anyone have led rope lights under their coach?
2) Has anyone install these themselves?
3) If so, how difficult are they to keep clean?
4) Other than the clear tube that they come in, are they in an extra tube?
5) How are they attached to the coach?

They are called rope lights because the developer was reminded of rope.

The assembly is in a piece of vinyl clear tube. If what you have in mind is ridged They are not rope lights. Ridged is somewhat easier to install.

Only way to determine how easy to keep clean, is to look under your rig and see how dirty the dirty side is! This is of course determined by your driving conditions.

Typically they are attached using something similar to a conduit strap.

Did I answer all questions?

Oh yes! I have not installed under chassis trim lights. However I have used many rope lights.

I've always admired the LED lighting on other RV's especially the awning lights on Girard awnings. I've also admired the cool under glow lighting I've seen on coaches and when a fellow Essex owner did an under glow project I was hooked. I had to do this. I researched various LED products and decided to use the same thing the Essex used which was by Boogey Lights. Seems like a quality product and they offer RGB lighting so you can change the colors, and now they offer a RGBWW which offers a more pure white light where the RGB option I have is an off white but still good. They offer various...

I used Boogey Lights. Can be a bit pricey but works well. They do get dirty but I rarely clean them, should clean them more. I forget about them as I don't use them much anymore.

Reminds me of my teenaged boys and their under car neon lights.
They outgrew that and their hot cars, thankfully, many years ago.
