And that is the Loki 2?
Can you link to the place of purchase?

Mine was super underwhelming, and I went into it with low expectations.

Underwater LED install
So i just wired in my mormo light to the two pig tails from the factory. They are powered by the same switch as stazi said: closest to steering wheel on left. Flipped the switch worked for 3 sec and blew breaker under steering wheel. Reset... same thing. What do i do now...?

Update:
I was looking at boat plugs spec on the titan and mormo and it says they require 8 amp min. I looked on breaker for underwater lights and it says 3 amp... obviously that’s the problem. Well right above the underwater light breaker is the breaker for docking lights which is a 10 amp breaker. My boat doesn’t have docking lights so I swapped them and now it works fine!
Anyone have any input against doing this...?2016 CRAZ

I would not assume that a circuit protected by a 3A fuse has a wire gauge that will exceed that new 10A breaker. Simply swapping breakers, may not the proper step.

Are you saying the gauge wire should be bigger?

Maybe. You need to find the wire size used and then a good guess on the length of run (I'm guessing 20 feet). The charts I see are all over the board on the wire sizes but for 10 amps should be 14-16 AWG for a 20 foot run. If you are lucky, they didn't install 18 AWG. You also have to look at any connecting parts to ensure they can take the higher current.

I dont know what gauge it is, but it needs to be a gauge that can support a 10A breaker. You upped the circuit protection amperage by 3 times. If the factory wiring was designed for that 3A circuit, you could have an issue with a 10A breaker. Now the wire is the weak link, rendering the breaker useless.
