Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better Best for external navigation lights as they are better sealed than even siliconed led bulbs. Also USCG approved

Questions

Is it true that replacing an incandescent white steaming bulb with this LED bulb runs afoul of regulations? I read that because a housing unit (bulb + lens, other housing etc) is approved, changing the bulb renders the combination non-compliant.

Asked by: JohnG
I don't know what the letter of the law might say, but I do know 2 things about it. 1. This is a very high quality bulb that will outlast the fixture you're putting it in. 2. No one is checking whether the type of bulb the fixture was certified with has been replaced with another type. Anyone looking at it will only want to know if it works and if it's sufficiently bright, because that's the standard. They don't care one bit about the bulb type, only that it does the job.
