Its swivel bracket aims the beam right where you're working, on the cockpit, transom, or deck after dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hella Marine 358176841 is a compact LED flood light built for the jobs that happen after dark on the water. It's a 2.7 inch square cube, black housing, clear lens, pushing 1400 lumens off four LEDs while pulling just 20 watts at 12 volts. Flood beam, not a spotlight. That means it throws a wide, even wash of light across the area right in front of it instead of a tight pencil beam reaching for the horizon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo where does that put it on your boat? Think close-in work areas. The cockpit, the transom, the swim platform, the aft deck where you're rigging lines or landing a fish at night. Mount one facing down over the outboard and you've got clean light on the powerhead when you're checking the motor at the dock. Aim a pair aft off the hardtop and you light up the whole fishing deck. It's the kind of light you reach for when you need to actually see what your hands are doing, not spot a channel marker a quarter mile off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe swivel bracket is what makes it flexible. You bolt the bracket down once, then tilt the head to aim the beam exactly where you want it. Good for T-tops, hardtops, radar arches, spreader bars, or a bulkhead. One honest heads-up from folks who've run these: the swivel joint can work loose under steady engine vibration on a planing hull. A dab of medium thread locker on the pivot hardware when you install it saves you from re-aiming the light every few trips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower-wise this is an easy add. It draws under 2 amps at 12 volts, so it won't tax your house bank or your switch panel. That said, don't cheap out on wire gauge for a long run. If you're pulling power from a panel amidships up to a hardtop, or running more than about 12 feet, step up to 14 AWG. Undersized wire on a longer run causes voltage drop, and voltage drop shows up as dimmer light than the spec sheet promises. Wire it through a 10 amp rocker switch with its own fuse or a spot on your fuse block and you've got a clean, dedicated deck-light circuit you can flip on and off from the helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHella Marine builds these for salt, but salt still fights back. Two small habits keep the light looking and working like new. First, wipe the clear lens down now and then. Left alone, salt spray hazes the lens over a season and dulls the output. A quick wipe with fresh water keeps it clear. Second, hit the mounting feet and the wiring connections with dielectric grease at install. That's the spot where corrosion likes to start, and a little grease there is cheap insurance against a green, crusty mount a year and a half down the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitment is friendly. The bolt-on base uses a common footprint, so it lines up with a lot of existing 3 inch light mounts already drilled on older runabouts and cruisers. If you're replacing a tired halogen work light, there's a decent chance the holes line up and you're just swapping fixtures. If it's a fresh install, the small 2.7 inch body tucks into tight spots, though on a small center-console T-top you'll want to plan your wiring gland location before you drill, because there isn't a lot of spare room around the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Anyone who runs at night or ties up after dark and wants real, usable light on deck without a big fixture or a big power draw. Anglers working the cockpit, cruisers loading gear at the dock, anyone rigging or cleaning up after sunset. What it's not: it's not a distance light. Don't buy it expecting to light up a far shoreline or use it as a docking spotlight. It's a flood, and it's meant to light the space you're standing in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou get one light with the swivel bracket. It's a single fixture, so if you're lighting a wide deck you'll likely want a pair. Straightforward hardware, honest output, and the Hella Marine name behind it. For a compact 12 volt deck and work light, it's a solid, no-drama choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20 watts of LED power delivers 1400 lumens of usable flood light\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour clear LED bulbs behind a clear lens for bright, even close-range coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlood beam pattern washes wide light across decks, cockpits, and transoms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 2.7 inch square black housing tucks into tight mounting spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12 volt operation draws under 2 amps, easy on your house bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwivel bracket tilts to aim the beam exactly where you need it\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBolt-on base fits many existing 3 inch light mount patterns for simple retrofits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSealed housing and clear lens built by Hella Marine for the saltwater environment\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\u003eIs the Hella Marine 358176841 a spotlight or a flood light?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's a flood light.
