Reading all the site would leave me with the opinion that the USCG requires the light to be an APPROVED light , which is then mounted properly.
Changing an approved light will void the approval,.
Simplest answer would be an extra anchor light , a legal one with a big filament bulb as approved , and a second light with what ever you decide on .
Would be hard for the Liar for Hire to prove which light was operating when some drunk drove in to you.
We have a over 65 ft Perko lamp mounted on the PH , and a plug in LED which is as bright or brighter that uses little juice all night.
It is struck at daybreak coffee time.
The most common late night hassle is someone driving over the anchor line , and only a locating ball gives someone a chance at knowing where the line actually is.
