DRSA piling cap lights are 12V DC LED caps that fit over wooden dock pilings from 4" to 18" in diameter. They light the dock and seal the piling top against water and nesting birds. Choose warm white (3000K), cool white, or RGBWW/RGBCW color, with one remote for the whole dock. Each cap is built to order in North Palm Beach, Florida, and carries a 3-year prorated warranty.
Key Features
- Integrated LEDs in RGBW or warm white for versatile lighting control.
- UV-resistant polymer construction handles coastal sun exposure.
- Saltwater-ready design prevents corrosion in marine environments.
- IP67 rating keeps lights waterproof against splashes and rain. To get more information you can click over here.
- Low 12V power draw works with standard boat or dock systems.
- Sizes from 4" to 18" fit most piling caps with lights.
-
Caps slide over the piling and connect to a 12V driver. Follow our installation guide, and use a licensed marine electrician for the driver and wire run.
-
Hardwired 12V DC, not solar. DRSA piling cap lights run on low-voltage 12V DC through a non-dimmable 12V LED driver, so output stays consistent every night, regardless of sun or battery age. Size the driver to your total wattage and wire run.
- 3-year prorated warranty for the original owner, with full replacement of any light failure in year one.

- Docks under 30' needing basic piling solar lights.
- Busy marinas requiring marine dock piling lights for visibility.
- Waterfront homes using dock lights for pilings during evening use.
- Boats that benefit from piling lights for safer docking at night.
- Coastal properties where solar dock piling lights save on power.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this waterproof? Yes, all models have an IP67 rating, so they stand up to water exposure without issues.
Can I install it myself? Yes, setup takes under 30 minutes with basic tools, a qualified electrician is always recommended.
Is it compatible with 12V systems? Yes, they're built for 12V marine power, including solar setups.
Do solar piling lights need full sun? They charge best in direct light but work in partial shade too. Are DRSA piling cap lights solar? No. They are 12V DC low-voltage lights powered by a 12V LED driver (AC to DC). Hardwired caps give steady, even light all night and don't depend on sun exposure or battery condition. If your dock has no power at the pilings, plan a low-voltage wire run from a protected outlet to the driver before ordering.
What's the maintenance? Just wipe them clean occasionally; the materials resist buildup and damage.
What size do I need? Warm and cool white caps fit pilings from 4" to 18". RGBWW/RGBCW color caps fit 8" to 18", in half-inch steps. Each cap is built to order, so measure every piling. Wrap a string around it, divide the length by 3.1416, and round up to the next half inch. Returns carry a restocking fee.
Do I need a remote for every light? No. One remote controls every RGB cap on the dock through the same controller.
