ACR Electronics is introducing enhanced versions of its RCL-100 and RCL-50 LED Searchlights to bring a new level of control, convenience and style to boaters.
Now featuring next generation ACR searchlight control accessories, these popular searchlights offer improved usability and greater versatility to supplement their piercing high intensity LED performance, proven reliability and efficient operation.
The modernized control options, comprising the URP-103 Point Pad, URH-103 Handheld Wireless Remote Control and URC-104 Master Controller, seamlessly integrate with the searchlights to provide optimal solutions for either refits or new installations.
Key benefits now available with ACR's 9-LED array / 220,000 candela power RCL-100 LED and 6-LED / 100,000 candela RCL-50 LED lights include a return-to-home feature which automatically returns the searchlight to a forward-facing orientation once the light is turned off. In addition, with the ability to control one or two searchlights independently or simultaneously, boaters can use one controller to easily toggle between lights or sync both lights for coordinated illumination.
With the first-of-its-kind wireless ACR Handheld Remote Control, boaters have new convenience, with the option of focusing the searchlight beam on a target while walking around the boat.
Developed by safety and survival leader ACR Electronics with functionality, flexibility and contemporary aesthetics in mind, the new searchlights answer the demands of the modern mariner for use on a range of vessels from yachts, sport yachts and superyachts to sport fishers, workboats and light commercial vessels.
Mikele D'Arcangelo, Vice President of Global Marketing and Product Management, ACR Electronics, said: "Our existing RCL-100 and RCL-50 LED Searchlights are proven as a trusted, durable and cost-effective choice for boating, sport fishing and commercial use, meticulously designed to last in the harsh marine environment. With the addition of our next generation 'brains' and controllers, the ACR searchlights with integrated control accessories combine flawless functionality, unmatched convenience and sleek aesthetics to offer boaters searchlight solutions which deliver on both style and function."
