PAR36 LED Pigtail Light for Tractor & Marine | 9–30V DC | 15W Actual Draw
Handxen PAR36 LED Pigtail Light — Flood & Spot Options for Tractor, Marine & Experimental Aircraft
Replace a standard PAR36 sealed-beam lamp with the Handxen PAR36 LED Pigtail Light. The Flood option delivers 2,200 lm with a wide horizontal beam; the Spot option delivers 2,300 lm with a narrow, long-range beam. Both use upgraded 18-LED technology, 5700K (±500K) white light with CRI approximately 75, a die-cast 6030 aluminum housing, and IP67 sealed construction. This page covers bare-wire pigtail options for tractors, marine work lights and other compatible equipment. For aircraft, use on experimental aircraft only.
Built for equipment owners who are tired of repeatedly replacing short-life stock PAR36 lamps. In some demanding applications, original lamps may last only around 24 hours. This LED upgrade is designed for long service life and uses low-EMI/RFI electronics to help avoid radio or intercom interference. Actual service life depends on operating conditions, installation and electrical-system health.

🔧 Installation Guide (5 Steps)
- Turn off power — Switch off master switch or disconnect vehicle battery.
- Remove the old bulb — Unscrew or unclip the existing PAR36 halogen from the socket.
- Connect the pigtail wires — Match positive (+) and negative (−) terminals. Labels are clearly marked on the LED unit.
- Secure in housing — Insert the LED unit into the existing PAR36 socket and fasten.
- Test — Power on and verify full brightness. Done!
⚠️ Note: Ensure correct polarity. Reverse polarity will not damage the unit but the light will not illuminate. For flood beam versions, orient correctly during installation for proper rectangular light spread.
About the Handxen PAR36 LED Sealed Beam Light
The Handxen PAR36 LED Pigtail Light is a sealed-beam replacement designed for standard 4.5-inch PAR36 mounting applications. This bare-wire pigtail version is intended for installations where the existing wiring will be connected to the supplied leads; verify fitment, polarity and wiring before ordering.
The upgraded design uses 18 LED emitters and engineered optics matched to the selected beam pattern. Flood output is 2,200 lm with 10,500 cd center intensity; Spot output is 2,300 lm with 18,810 cd center intensity. At 15W actual power draw (18W nominal rating), the light provides 5700K (±500K) white output with CRI approximately 75.
The housing is constructed from die-cast 6030 aluminum with parallel plate heat sinks that rapidly dissipate thermal energy, keeping operating temperatures within safe limits even under prolonged continuous use. An IP67 dust and waterproof rating ensures the sealed beam withstands rain, pressure washing, mud, snow, and temporary water immersion — conditions routinely encountered on farm equipment and marine applications.
With a rated lifespan exceeding 50,000 hours, vibration resistance superior to incandescent technology, and a wide operating voltage range of DC 9V–30V, the Handxen PAR36 LED is the permanent solution to recurring halogen bulb replacements. It meets SAE-J2895, CE, and RoHS standards and comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What halogen bulbs does this replace?
This is designed as a PAR36 replacement reference for bulb numbers 4313, 4416, 4505, 4509, 4587, 4591, 4593, 4594, 4595, 4596, 4623, 4626, 4627 and many others. It fits standard 4.5-inch PAR36 mounting applications, but this bare-wire pigtail version requires connection to the existing wiring.
Will this work on my John Deere tractor?
It can be used where the PAR36 mounting size, voltage and wiring are compatible. The listed John Deere OEM numbers are reference numbers; verify the installation before ordering.
Is this suitable as an aircraft landing light?
For experimental aircraft only. This product is not represented as FAA/PMA approved. Confirm the installation requirements with a qualified aviation professional before use.
Will this light interfere with my radio?
The upgraded electronics use a low-EMI/RFI design to help avoid interference with radio reception. Verified customer feedback reports no radio or intercom interference. Correct wiring, grounding and installation are still important in every vehicle or vessel.
Can I use this on a 24V system?
Yes. The wide input voltage range of DC 9V–30V means it is compatible with both 12V and 24V electrical systems found in trucks, tractors, heavy machinery, and marine vessels.
Flood vs Spot — which do I need?
The Flood version provides a wide horizontal beam of ±70°, 2,200 lm and 10,500 cd center intensity—ideal for work lighting on tractors and deck lighting. The Spot version provides a narrow horizontal beam of ±10°, 2,300 lm and 18,810 cd center intensity for long-range work-light applications. For aircraft, use on experimental aircraft only; this product is not represented as a certified navigation light.
