Perfect piece of equipment for Marine applications, as well as Off Road use. Control this High Power spot light from the comfort of your truck cab or boat cockpit. Who wants to hold a huge spot light when its cold and dark outside and all you want to do is see? Definately not me. With the Optronics Sealed Beam Remote Control Spotlights, you get the brightness of 500,000 candle power to light up the night, and ease of control to point to whatever you want.
Not only do you get the spotlight, but you get a very useful built in Cold Cathode Area Light, to light up the immediate area. Great for when you want to get on the bow of the boat to toss the anchor, or even added area light to change your truck tires. And dont worry about it falling off. This light is designed to be securely held with its suction mount bar.

I bet it might be more cumbersome than useful. I used a rechargeable 1,000,000 CP handheld and you could instantly point it right where you want to see(about 30 bucks @ Harbor Freight). Might be hard to get this pointed in the right spot, quickly if need be. My vote would be no.

I'm gonna agree with Groucho, a hand held light is much better in my opinon you can instantly point it at what you want, don't have a cord and don't have to wait for the light to rotate around to what you want to see.

In the dark if I need the light on something I want it to be quick I don't want to wait for the motor to rotate the light to the object it could be to late if it's something I didn't want to run into.

I'll third the hand held light! Most of the time at night you only want a short burst of light. The long you have it one the more your night visions is effected.
