Signature Teardrop Red LED Marker Light – 23 SMD, Diffused Lens
23 SMD LEDs. Diffused Lens. Flat Chrome Base.
Add distinctive exterior lighting style to compatible commercial trucks, trailers, recreational vehicles, and specialty vehicles with Kaper II's Signature Teardrop Red LED Marker Light.
Featuring twenty-three surface-mounted device (SMD) LEDs, red illumination, a diffused lens, and a flat chrome base, this marker lamp combines traditional teardrop styling with modern LED technology.
The diffused lens helps soften the appearance of individual LED light points, creating a more blended illuminated appearance.
Its flat chrome base provides a distinctive decorative finish and a mounting profile different from curved-base Signature Teardrop models.
This particular version is supplied without a gasket.

Signature Teardrop Styling
The Signature Teardrop family offers a recognizable marker-light design for commercial and recreational vehicles.
Its teardrop shape provides a distinctive styling alternative to conventional round, oval, and rectangular marker lamps.
For truck owners, fleet operators, and vehicle builders, the design can complement chrome exterior accessories while providing the specified marker-light function.
Twenty-Three SMD LEDs
This lamp features twenty-three SMD LEDs.
Surface-mounted device technology uses compact LED components arranged on a circuit board.
The 23-diode configuration is an important identifying specification when comparing this model with other Signature Teardrop lights.
A higher LED count does not automatically establish greater brightness, reduced power consumption, or improved visibility.
Those performance characteristics depend on the complete electrical and optical design and should be verified against manufacturer specifications.
Diffused Lens Design
The diffused lens is one of this model's defining characteristics.
A diffused lens helps scatter light from individual LED sources, reducing the appearance of sharply defined LED points.
This can produce a smoother-looking illuminated surface compared with lamps where individual diodes are more visually prominent.
The exact lens color, material, and photometric performance have not been supplied.
Lens diffusion should therefore be maintained as a separate product attribute from lens color.
Red Marker Illumination
The product description specifies red illumination.
Red marker lights are commonly used in designated rear-facing or rear-position vehicle lighting applications.
However, the correct installation location depends on the lamp's approved function, orientation, and applicable vehicle lighting requirements.
The supplied description does not establish whether the lens itself is red, clear, or another color.
Flat Chrome Base
This model features a flat chrome base.
The flat mounting profile distinguishes it from curved-base Signature Teardrop variants.
This distinction is important because mounting-surface geometry can affect proper installation and sealing.
The chrome finish provides a bright decorative appearance that can complement other chrome exterior accessories.
The underlying base material has not been identified and should not be assumed to be metal or chrome-plated plastic without confirmation.
Supplied Without Gasket
This version is specifically identified as being supplied without a gasket.
Depending on the lamp design and mounting surface, a gasket or another manufacturer-approved sealing method may be required.
Installers should confirm the appropriate sealing arrangement before installation.
The absence of a gasket does not establish that the lamp is waterproof or that additional sealing is unnecessary.
Potential Applications
Commercial Trucks: Red marker lighting for compatible approved vehicle positions.
Truck Cab and Body Accessories: Teardrop lighting for compatible flat mounting surfaces.
Trailers: Red marker-light applications where the lamp meets the required function and installation criteria.
RVs and Motorhomes: Exterior marker lighting for qualifying recreational vehicle applications.
Specialty Vehicles: A decorative marker-light option for compatible utility, service, and custom-built vehicles.
Installation Considerations
Before installation, verify the lamp's operating voltage, wiring configuration, mounting dimensions, and approved lighting function.
Confirm that the intended mounting surface is compatible with the flat-base profile.
Because this model is supplied without a gasket, determine whether a separate gasket or manufacturer-approved sealing method is required.
Protect electrical connections against moisture, vibration, and mechanical damage.
Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions and confirm that the lamp's mounting location and orientation comply with applicable vehicle lighting requirements.
Important: The supplied product description confirms the Signature Teardrop family, twenty-three SMD LEDs, diffused lens, red illumination, flat chrome base, and absence of a gasket. Lens color, voltage, wiring, exact dimensions, base material, and compliance markings require verification.
