It automatically rights itself and activates when in the water and begins strobing, operating for up to 60 hours on a 6-volt lantern battery. Perfect for commercial marine, petro-marine, cruisers and any application needing a reliable COB light.
A Matter of Balance
Marker lights, by design, need to float upright for maximum
visibility. The 6-volt lantern batteries provide the ballast for
these lights. Although batteries may be the same size, the
different chemistries cause them to have varying weights. It is
imperative that only the 6-volt battery models suggested are used.
Too little ballast and the light will lie over on its side and be
ineffective; too much weight and the light may sink. If there are
any doubts as to the appropriate weight of the battery, test the
light by placing it in shallow water. If it floats upright, it is
good, however, if the SM-2 sinks, the battery is too heavy.
