Lippert Components Wireless Motion-Activated LED RV Step Light — Black, IP65 Weatherproof, Magnetic Mount

The Lippert Wireless Motion-Activated LED RV Step Light is a battery-powered, weatherproof light with built-in motion and ambient light sensors that brightens RV steps and nearby areas without drilling.

Keep your campsite safer after dark with a compact, portable light designed specifically for RV steps and exterior spaces. This Lippert step light combines IP65-rated housing, two high-strength magnets for instant mounting, and an included adhesive-backed metal plate for non-magnetic surfaces. It runs on AA batteries (not included) and only activates at night when motion is detected, giving you hands-free illumination exactly when you need it.

How does this step light improve safety on RV steps?

The light provides a low-profile glow beneath steps and around the entry area to reduce trip hazards in low light. Motion activation ensures it lights only when someone approaches, helping you spot obstacles and footing without a blinding beam.

• Motion-activated: illuminates for 15 seconds after detecting movement.
• Ambient sensor: only turns on at night to avoid daytime battery drain.
• Under-step placement: casts light where feet land for better visibility.

Can I mount it without drilling into my RV?

Yes — the light was built to mount without permanent hardware. Two strong magnets secure it to any ferrous metal surface, and an adhesive-backed metal plate is included for fiberglass, plastic, or painted surfaces.

• Two integrated high-strength magnets for quick attachment and removal.
• Adhesive metal plate included for non-magnetic installations.
• Portable design allows removal and temporary use elsewhere around camp.

What weather and power conditions does the light handle?

The housing is injection-molded and rated IP65, so it resists rain and dust typical of outdoor RV use. It runs on AA batteries, making replacement simple and ensuring continued operation even when shore power isn’t available.

• IP65-rated housing protects against low-pressure water jets and dust.
• Durable injection-molded plastic suited for outdoor exposure.
• Powered by standard AA batteries (not included) for easy replacement.

How simple is it to operate and maintain?

Operation is intentionally straightforward: an ON/OFF switch and the built-in sensors handle the rest. With minimal moving parts and a weatherproof case, maintenance is limited to occasional battery replacement and surface cleaning.

• Two-mode control: ON (sensor active) or OFF (disabled).
• Automatic shutoff after 15 seconds of no motion conserves batteries.
• Removable for cleaning or to carry as a flashlight around camp.

Who is this for? This Lippert step light is aimed at RV owners, campers, and anyone who needs a simple, no-drill exterior lighting solution. It fits people who prioritize safety and convenience — from weekend travelers to full-time RVers — and is especially useful when you want temporary, removable illumination for entry steps, cargo areas, or dark exterior nooks without rewiring or permanent installation.
