Waterproof Inox LED Spotlight 18W (6×3W LEDs, with Mount)

This 18W LED spotlight combines modern LED technology with the durability of stainless steel, delivering reliable lighting for your boat or yacht. The housing and mounting bracket are entirely made of stainless steel (inox), which not only gives a sleek appearance but also ensures resilient protection against corrosion, even with continuous exposure to saltwater. This makes it suitable for exterior installation – on deck, rails, superstructure, or even dockside structures if needed.

LED Illumination & Efficiency: The light features 6 LED chips of 3W each, consuming about 18W in total, yet producing a luminous output comparable to roughly a 100W traditional halogen lamp. The light is a cool white (color temperature around 5500–6300K), providing bright illumination with good contrast – ideal for tasks like setting up fishing gear at night or checking equipment on deck. The beam spread is wide (between 60° and 120° depending on the reflector design), meaning that instead of a narrow spot, this lamp casts a broad flood of light. For example, mounted high on a roll-bar or flybridge, it can cover an entire cockpit or working area on a trawler.

Energy Efficiency: One of the big advantages of LED technology is low power consumption – this 18W spotlight puts minimal load on your battery, allowing prolonged use without worry. If you leave it on all night (say, as a camp light while anchored in a cove), it will hardly dent your battery compared to old halogen floodlights. Moreover, the LED diodes are rated for over 30,000 hours, which in practice means years of operation with no bulb replacements needed.

Electrical Compatibility: The input voltage range of 10–30V DC makes this LED light universally compatible – it auto-adjusts to both 12V systems (common on smaller boats) and 24V systems (larger yachts and commercial vessels). An integrated LED driver regulates the current to the LEDs, preventing flicker and protecting against voltage spikes. This means even if your boat’s voltage fluctuates a bit (due to alternator output or other loads kicking on), the light will remain steady and consistent.

Dimensions & Mounting: The spotlight is compact – with a front diameter of about Ø103 mm (approximately, per available data) and a height including the base of around 100–110 mm. It comes with its own mounting bracket, which is also stainless steel. The bracket has bolt holes for fixing it to your desired surface. Installation is flexible: you can put it on a flat horizontal surface (like a cabin top) or on a vertical wall/panel (using an L-shaped orientation of the bracket). Once installed, the angle of the light can be adjusted by loosening and re-tightening the bracket’s pivot – this way you point the beam exactly where needed (upwards, straight out, or down onto the deck).

Environmental Resilience: With an IP66 rating, this spotlight is resistant to heavy water spray and dust. Rain, sea spray, or bow splashes won’t infiltrate the housing and harm the electronics. The stainless construction means that even after years of service you won’t see unsightly rust on it. (For optimal longevity, it’s a good practice to occasionally rinse the light with fresh water and wipe it down to remove salt deposits.) The operating temperature range of the LEDs covers typical marine conditions – they will illuminate reliably in cold weather and tropical heat alike, while emitting far less heat than halogen bulbs. The housing also acts as a heatsink, dissipating the heat from the LEDs to keep them cool and efficient.

Use Cases:

• Deck/Cockpit Lighting: Ideal as a fixed lamp to flood work areas with light – e.g., for night fishing on deck, providing better visibility for handling lines and gear in the dark, or for general illumination during evening gatherings on board.
• Mast/Arch Mounted Flood: Can be installed on a mast or flybridge arch to shine down onto the boat (similar to deck floodlights on a workboat, providing safety and comfort through ample light).
• Auxiliary Yacht Light: In combination with long-range spotlights, this wide-beam LED covers the immediate vicinity – while a narrow-beam searchlight targets distant objects, this one can illuminate the area around the boat, where width is more important than distance.
• Beyond Boating: Thanks to its portable size and 12V operation, the spotlight can also be used off-boat – for example, as a camp light when camping (with a 12V battery), for trailer/camper lighting, or even at home with an appropriate adapter. Its low consumption makes it suitable for solar setups and backup batteries as well.

In summary, this 18W inox LED spotlight provides bright, wide-area light with minimal power usage and minimal maintenance. The investment in a stainless steel build means you get not only functionality but also long-term reliability and a stylish look. Install it on your vessel and enjoy a well-lit deck and enhanced safety during nighttime activities on the water.
