{"product_id":"acr-rcl-200-led-searchlight-white-720k-candela","title":"ACR RCL-200 LED Searchlight White","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThe ACR RCL-200 is a serious LED searchlight for boats that run after dark. Twelve OSRAM LEDs throw a 720,000 candela beam more than a mile downrange, with continuous 360 degree pan, 55 degree tilt, and both a wired helm pad and a wireless handheld remote. If you run offshore or poke into unfamiliar harbors at night, this is the light that earns its keep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RCL-200 LED searchlight is built for boaters who run after dark and want to actually see what's out there. Twelve high-intensity OSRAM LEDs push a 720,000 candela beam that reaches out about 5,568 feet, which is a little over a mile of usable throw. The beam throws a tight spot pattern, so the light stays concentrated downrange instead of washing out. That's enough to pick out a channel marker, a crab pot, or another boat well before it becomes a problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe like this light for 30 to 45 foot sportfishers and trawlers, boats with an arch or a hardtop tall enough to give the head clearance to rotate. It spins a full 360 degrees continuously and tilts up to 55 degrees, so you can sweep the whole horizon or drop the beam down close to the hull when you're working a tight harbor. Rotation runs fast at 16 degrees per second when you need to swing quickly, or slow at 3 degrees per second when you're tracking something specific. Push the button and it returns to its home position on its own, so you're not hunting for center every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat really sets a light like this apart is how it changes the way you run at night. A handheld spotlight leaves one hand tied up and only reaches so far. With the RCL-200 mounted up high and driven from the helm, you keep both hands on the wheel and throttle while the beam does the searching. In fog or light rain the tight spot pattern cuts through better than a floody light that just lights up the moisture in front of you. Anglers heading out before dawn use it to find the inlet, and cruisers use it to read mooring fields and pick out an empty ball without waking the whole anchorage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou get two ways to drive it. There's a wired dash-mount point pad for the helm and a wireless handheld remote you can carry up to the bow or out to the cockpit. On a bigger boat that runs two stations, you can control two searchlights from one station, or run two lights from two separate stations. That flexibility is a big part of why this one shows up on larger cruisers and charter boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing is die-cast aluminum finished in white, sealed to IP66, with the LED module itself rated to IP68. It's meant to live outside in salt spray and UV without fading or corroding. The 60 watt LED array is rated for 50,000 hours, so realistically you're not going to be swapping bulbs over the life of the boat. It runs on either 12 or 24 volt DC, which makes it an easy fit across a wide range of electrical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA few honest install notes from the crew who rig these. The head puts real torque on the mounting surface when it swings, so on a fiberglass arch you'll want a backing or reinforcement plate under the base. Skip that and the mount can work loose over a season or two. The base gasket is a known spot to watch. Reseal it properly at install and check it once a year so you don't get water tracking down into the arch. On the electrical side, the light draws around 3.5 amps at 12 volts, but you still want it on its own dedicated 10 amp breaker with a clean run back toward the battery. Older 12 volt systems with voltage spikes can be hard on the LED driver, so a stable feed matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor control, stick with the matching URC series controllers designed for this light. They keep the 360 degree stop calibration and the return-to-home function working the way they should. Route the control and power cables through the radar post or arch tube where you can, and give them a little slack at the rotation stops so nothing chafes through over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs it overkill for a 20 foot center console tied to a slip? Probably. But if you're running offshore at night, poking into unfamiliar harbors, or doing any kind of search and recovery work, a light like this pays for itself the first time it keeps you off a rock. It's a serious piece of gear for a serious boat, and it's built to last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e720,000 candela peak beam from twelve high-intensity OSRAM LEDs for maximum reach at night\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5,568 ft (1,697 m) maximum beam distance to spot markers and hazards well ahead\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e360 degree continuous rotation with 55 degree tilt covers the full horizon down to close-in water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual control: wired dash-mount point pad plus a wireless handheld remote\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReturn-to-home positioning recenters the beam at the push of a button\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-light, two-station control runs a pair of searchlights from one or two helms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60 watt LED array rated for 50,000 hours, so bulb changes are essentially off the table\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDie-cast aluminum housing rated IP66, LED module rated IP68 for salt and spray\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12 or 24 volt DC input fits a wide range of boat electrical systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable rotation speed: fast 16 degrees per second for quick sweeps, slow 3 degrees per second for tracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized ACR Electronics reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eHow far does the RCL-200 beam reach?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt puts out 720,000 candela and reaches a maximum beam distance of 5,568 feet, which is about 1,697 meters or a little over a mile.
