ACR Electronics: Marine-Grade Handheld Spotlights Built for the Open Water

When visibility on the water is a matter of safety, few names carry more weight than ACR Electronics. Recognized as the world's leader in safety and survival technologies, ACR has provided safety equipment to the marine, outdoor, and aviation industries since the late 1950s. That decades-long commitment to precision engineering and reliability extends directly into their lineup of handheld spotlights and accessories — products built for mariners who refuse to compromise when the sun goes down.

RCL Series: Searchlights Engineered for Performance

ACR Electronics' spotlight lineup centers on the RCL series, a family of remote-controlled LED searchlights designed to balance raw output with operational simplicity. With 460,000 candelas generated by 10 High Flux (50W) LEDs, the RCL-95 delivers visibility over three-quarters of a nautical mile. For boaters working smaller recreational vessels, the RCL-85 is designed for small to medium-sized recreational powerboats and light commercial vessels, delivering a 240,000-candela light rating with 6 high-flux LEDs and a maximum beam distance of up to 3,215 feet (980 m).

A spotlight-style beam pattern with a narrow 8-degree angle focuses more light on the target without wasting illumination to the sides. The light can also tilt an impressive 135 degrees, making it easy to illuminate draw bridges, buoys, and docks. The auto-home feature conveniently parks the searchlight back at the desired starting location each time it is turned off.

Wireless Remote Control and Handheld Accessories

What truly sets ACR's spotlight ecosystem apart is its suite of control options. The RCL-95 can be operated with either a wired dash mount joystick control or the wireless handheld remote to rotate the light 360 degrees continuously at either a fast or slow speed, without the hassle of a hard stop. With the wireless ACR Handheld Remote Control, boaters can focus the searchlight beam on a target while walking around the boat.

Developed with functionality, flexibility, and contemporary aesthetics in mind, these searchlight control accessories are designed for a range of vessels — from yachts and sport fishers to workboats and light commercial vessels. The modular control system includes options like the URP-103 Point Pad and the URC-104 Master Controller for vessel-wide integration.

Built to Withstand the Marine Environment

The RCL-95 is weather resistant, with electronics located in an IP68 water-resistant light head, and the ASA housing and lens are sealed against the elements for years of trouble-free operation. Long-life LEDs rated at 50,000 operating hours mean these spotlights are a long-term investment rather than a seasonal accessory. Whether you're navigating a night passage, scanning for crab pots, or signaling for assistance, ACR's handheld spotlight solutions deliver the durability and output that serious mariners depend on.
