Runs 10 to 30 volts DC, wears a smoke lens for a clean look off, and ships with a black stainless steel mounting bracket. Serious long-range light for the hardtop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hella Marine Black Magic Tough Slim Light Bar puts a serious amount of usable light up front without hanging a chunky truck bar off your hardtop. It's 20 inches of die-cast aluminum packed with 21 LEDs, and it throws a driving beam worth 6000 lumens down-range. If you run inlets before sunup, or come back in after the sun's gone, this is the kind of light that actually earns its spot on the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe like this one for center consoles and bay boats where T-top real estate is tight. The slim profile keeps it low and out of the way, and the driving beam pattern is built to reach out ahead of the bow rather than wash the water right in front of you. That long throw is what you want when you're idling through an unlit channel or picking up markers at a distance. Just know going in that a driving beam is a focused pattern. If you want a wide sheet of light close to the boat for docking or working the cockpit, you'd pair this with a flood rather than run it alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's it for? The offshore crew running long distances before light, bay anglers who launch in the dark, and anyone tired of squinting past a weak factory spreader. The 21 LEDs sit behind that smoke lens in a single slim extrusion, so you get an even bar of light with no dark gaps. And at 20 inches it's long enough to matter without dominating the top. On a boat in the 20 to 30 foot range, it sits just right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower is flexible. The bar runs anywhere from 10 to 30 volts DC, so it drops onto a 12-volt console or a 24-volt system without a second thought. It pulls 107 watts, which works out to right around 9 amps on a 12-volt boat. We'd wire it on 10-gauge and protect it with a 15-amp fuse or breaker, especially if you've got a long run from the switch panel back to the mount. Voltage drop on a skinny wire is the number one reason these bars come in dimmer than they should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing is die-cast aluminum, and it does double duty. It's tough enough to shrug off spray and the occasional knock, and it works as a heat sink for the LEDs. Give it a couple inches of air behind the bar so it can shed that heat, especially if you leave it on for long stretches. The lens is smoked, so the bar reads as a clean black strip when it's off. Worth knowing that a smoke lens trims a little output next to a clear one. On this bar, that trade buys you a much better look on a modern console.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt ships with a black stainless steel mounting bracket for a straightforward bracket-mount install. Stainless holds up out there, but salt still finds a way, so give the bracket and hardware a fresh-water rinse now and then. And because a light bar lives on a boat that pounds, we always chase the mounting bolts with thread locker and lock nuts. Vibration from an outboard will back a plain nut off over a season. Do it once, do it right, and you won't think about it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne more word on expectations. A driving beam like this is tuned for reach, and over open water that reach can put glare back in your eyes if the bar sits too low or aims too flat. Mount it high, aim it slightly down, and it does exactly what it's meant to. If most of your running is close-quarters docking or working right off the transom, a flood pattern serves you better, and you can add one alongside this bar. Match the beam to the job and you'll be glad you did.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Hella Marine part, built to their Fit and Forget standard. It's a premium bar at a premium price, aimed at boaters who want dependable long-range light that looks the part on the hardtop. Rig it up correctly and it'll run season after season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20-inch slim die-cast aluminum housing that sheds heat and stands up to salt spray\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21 LEDs producing 6000 lumens in a long-throw driving beam\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e107-watt draw across a wide 10 to 30 volt DC range, so it runs on both 12V and 24V systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDriving beam pattern tuned for reach ahead of the bow, ideal for open-water running\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmoke lens for a clean blacked-out look when the bar is switched off\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncluded black stainless steel mounting bracket for a straightforward bracket-mount install\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSealed marine-grade construction, built to the Hella Marine Fit and Forget standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle slim extrusion with 21 evenly spaced LEDs, no dark gaps across the bar\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 Hella Marine 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 bright is this light bar?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt puts out 6000 lumens from 21 LEDs in a driving beam pattern.
