Camper Shell Interior LED Light Install


Recommended Posts

Not a biggie by any means, but I needed some light back in the camper shell occasionally when unloading at night and didn't want to run wires back from the cab. So I picked up a 3" X 6" interior cargo LED panel light from Maxxima (Model Number M84427-A, $12) and a cheap "offshore" 12V / 3800mAh rechargeable power supply on Ebay ($18). Stuck the LED on the cargo light cutout up front with 3M emblem tape, ran the wiring to the back hatch, mounted the power supply, then gave it a longevity test. In the pics below the LED had been burning for 12 hours and hadn't even started to dim.

The switchable power supply charges up in about an hour, the LED panel light puts out a ton of light, and it looks like it'll keep burning for at least 24 hours w/o recharging. A simple inexpensive mod, and an improvement I needed.
