The REI Member Dividend
The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.
Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.
Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
One of the better lights on the market, incredible watertight construction, and extremely long lasting battery life. Also the suction cup is very powerful so it wont fall off if you have to roll and if it does there is a convenient clip will prevent it from ending up in the water.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
I frequently paddle at night and this light makes me feel much safer when other larger boats approach me. The LED light has a substantial suction cup that really works. I like the way the light reflects on me, as I paddle, so that I can be extremely visible. I also like the ease of battery replacement.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
I love kayaking/fishing, especially at night. I feel much safer now that I have this on my boat. It's easy to use, and works very well. The suction cup is strong and even stays on in choppy water. It works 'ok' on land as a flashlight too.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
I used this product on three night paddles recently while paddling from Frt. Pierce, Fl, to NOLA. Both times I was highly visible in my outrigger canoe from at least 1/4 mile away (I know this, because I was in communication with folks on land while I paddled in to meet them). Between this light strapped to my aft iako, my headlamp, and the reflective tape on both iakos, my OC1 was lit up like a mini-cruise ship--minus the horrible emissions and not very well treated sewage. I've also used this light when camping, as it's easy to hang in the tent, and is extremely bright. I would not do a major--or even minor--excursion without this light.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
I use this light at an anchor light on my sit on top kayak when I fish late night or before sun up. I fabricated 3 foot section of 1/2 PVC pipe into a mast, then added another 7 inch piece of 3/4 inch PVC to sit on top of the 1/2 inch and hold the light. I screwed everything together, use bungee and clips to connectall the pieces in case I roll. This allows me to put the light above my head for true 360 degree visibility by others around me. I place the end of the pipe in a scotty mount, which I custom cut to lock it in.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
This light was awesome. I recent purchased 2 new kayaks for general recreation and fishing. I knew that I was going to be fishing in the late evenings and be paddling home in the dark. This light is small, light, and easily carried, stored, is very bright and emits a general overall great level of light in the immediate vicinity of your personal watercraft. It allows your watercraft to be seen from a very far distance, offering the safety and compliance I was looking for.
I also have a small fishing boat, so was looking for a multi-purpose light that I could also use as a stern light on my boat. Well... I attached the suction cup to the top of my 8 hp gas motor, and was as happy with the effect on my boat as my kayak. Unfortunately, as I was motoring back to camp in the dark, the suction cup let loose, most likely due to the vibration of the motor, and the light fell into the lake and sank. I did not tether the light to the boat (I know, my bad). The positives were that the light is waterproof, and stayed lit under the water (est. 100 hours). My buddy who was also heading back to camp passed over the light in the lake, and thought it was an alien spacecraft under the water. It bugged him out!
For grins, the next night we happen to motor down the lake and the light was still shining brightly from the bottom of the lake, under the water, but still clearly visible on the surface. I regret that I inadvertently littered. In reality, I was hoping that this light would serve dual purposes, and I'll most likely buy a second one, for at least use on the kayak.

Comments about Paddlers Supply Company LED Kayak Deck Light with Suction Cup Base:
Besides being light weight, easily mounted & stored, and in compliance with Tempe Town Lake's requirement for a 360 degree stern light or face a $100 fine, (and a red or red/green bow light). it's two LED's make my kayak highly visible without ruining your and other boater's night vision.
I've used it on 2 moonlight paddles and people who use those ultra bright head lamps are to be avoided because their vision is largely limited to the narrow range of their head lamp as opposed to someone who's eyes are adjusted to and depending on the moonlight. When they turn their heads to see your face, they can ruin your night vision.
Excellent product for my needs.
