When I first saw the nav light LED battery powered dinghy
lights I thought they were a great solution. In the last two years I have purchased Five Lights and two mounts and currently only have one working light. I've been in contact with the company and their distributor in the US and what I've learned essentially is there is no warranty on any of these products.
So my question is is there such thing as a reliable LED portable dinghy light. I am looking for a red and green and a separate all around white light

Care to share specifics of what product you're working with?
 
Yes of course
It is the nav safe battery powered tri-color bow light and they're all around white light

I should have taken a picture of it, but on our last dinghy, we had a plastic ammo can that we mounted an old red green navigation light on it with velcro, with wires to a small 12 volt battery in the can, that we would put on the furthest forward seat. That way we could take it off, and leave it in the ammo can (with our registration and other items) in the day time. We had a self contained battery powered stern light with a fitting on the stern.

I can definitely say it was Coast Guard okay, as we got stopped one night in Fort Myers mooring field by the USCG in our dinghy, and all we heard about the nav lights was that it was a cool set up, and we got the inspection passed slip to prove it!

Or new dinghy has factory navigation lights, so we don't do it any more.
 
We've had the NavSafe all-around white dinghy light with extendable mount for four years and it works fine. However, after reading about your experience I hope our light keeps on working!

I've had these for several years and really like them. Don't know why my luck has been better than yours.
