Perko 1263 Exterior Surface Mount Dome Light, 12V, Red and White Bulbs, Three-Position Toggle Switch

Overview

The Perko 1263DP1WHT is an exterior surface mount dome light with red and white bulbs for 12V boat systems. It uses an ivory PERKO KOTE zinc alloy housing with a clear lens, a 5 inch outside base, a 4 inch lens, and 1-7/8 inch overall depth, so it is easy to size for cabins, companionways, enclosed helms, and covered overhead mounting points.

A three-position toggle switch at the fixture lets you move between red, off, and white light. The red setting helps preserve night vision, which is useful at night around the helm or in the cabin. The supplied bulbs are 7 watts, the fixture draws 0.94 amps in use, and the maximum bulb rating is 18 watts.

Installation and fit

This light is a straightforward surface-mount option when you want the switch built into the fixture instead of adding a separate control point. Before ordering, check the mounting area for the 5 inch outside base and 1-7/8 inch depth, and confirm your boat uses a 12V lighting circuit.

The clear lens gives a broad utility light pattern rather than a tight beam, which works well in overhead positions where you want general light across a small cabin area, passageway, or cockpit entry.

Use on board

This is a good match for boat owners who want normal white cabin light and a red night-light mode in the same fixture. It suits cruising boats, fishing boats, and sailboats where night vision matters after dark and where a simple incandescent dome light still makes sense for cabin or helm-area lighting.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
