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

Lippert's wireless motion-activated LED RV step light provides hands-free, low-profile illumination for RV steps and exterior storage areas without drilling, with weatherproof protection and magnetic mounting.

When campsites get dark, small obstacles and uneven steps become safety hazards. This compact Lippert Components step light combines motion sensing, a dusk sensor and two high-strength magnets so you lights-only-when-needed lighting that installs in seconds. The IP65-rated housing and injection-molded construction resist dust and water spray, while an included adhesive-backed metal plate lets you mount it to non-magnetic surfaces.

How does this light make entering and exiting the RV safer at night?

The light turns on automatically for a short duration when it detects motion after dusk, creating a soft under-step glow that highlights tread edges and nearby trip hazards. Because it only activates in low light, the lamp won’t run during daytime and helps conserve battery life.

• Motion sensor triggers 15-second illumination on detected movement.
• Light sensor prevents activation in daylight to save batteries.
• Low-profile under-step placement reduces glare while improving visibility.
• Battery-powered operation avoids wiring through RV walls.

Can I mount this without drilling into my RV?

Yes. The unit has two built-in high-strength magnets for quick attachment to ferrous metal step frames. For plastic, aluminum or other non-magnetic surfaces it includes an adhesive-backed metal plate so you can stick the plate in place and then magnetically attach the light.

• Two integrated magnets for fast, no-drill mounting.
• Adhesive-backed metal plate included for non-magnetic surfaces.
• Removable design lets you take the light with you when walking away.
• No wiring required — runs on replaceable AA batteries (not included).

Is this light built to withstand outdoor conditions?

The housing is constructed from heavy-duty injection-molded plastic and rated IP65, which protects against dust and low-pressure water jets. That makes it suitable for typical camping environments where occasional splashes, dust and weather exposure occur.

• IP65 weatherproof rating for dust resistance and water spray protection.
• Durable molded-plastic enclosure resists impacts and outdoor wear.
• Compact shape tucks beneath steps and storage compartments.
• Simple on/off switch to disable motion sensing when desired.

How long does the light stay on and how is it powered?

When motion is detected and ambient light is low, the light stays illuminated for 15 seconds before automatically switching off if no further movement is sensed. It operates on standard AA batteries (not included), making replacements simple and widely available at campsites or stores.

• Automatic 15-second run time after motion detection.
• Requires AA batteries (sold separately) for convenient replacement.
• Manual OFF position available to prevent activation when preferred.
• Battery-only design removes the need for electrical installation.

Who is this for? The Lippert Wireless Motion-Activated LED RV Step Light is for RV owners, overlanders and campers who want a quick, non-invasive way to add nighttime visibility to steps, storage bays and campsite walkways. It suits renters and owners who prefer tool-free installation, anyone who needs a portable light to carry around camp, and users looking for a rugged, weather-resistant LED solution that conserves batteries through intelligent sensing.
